Assessment Districts

The federal Minister of Indian Affairs and Northern Development, following consultation with the territorial government and Yukon first nations, has established six assessment districts in the Yukon, with a Designated Office for each district.

Designated Offices are operating in six Yukon communities: Dawson City, Haines Junction, Mayo, Teslin, Watson Lake and Whitehorse.

In general, the staff of the Designated Offices will conduct assessments of projects within its assessment district.
