MARN environmental license for an apparel factory
- Manual: opening a garment factory
- Plant services: power, water, license
- Audited
The framework is the Environmental Evaluation, Control and Monitoring Regulation (Governmental Accord 137-2016), amended by Governmental Accords 121-2018 and 317-2019; activities are classified into categories A, B1, B2 and C under the schedule of listed activities. The license is issued by DIGARN or by MARN's departmental office against the approving resolution, on application and payment: "once the requirements before MARN have been met, the period for issuing or renewing and delivering the license shall not exceed 5 days" (art. 60, 2016 text); minimum validity of 1 year and maximum of 5 for categories A and B, at the applicant's request (art. 61 as amended by Governmental Accord 121-2018); category C and minimum-impact activities are exempt from the license unless they apply for one in order to operate. Corrected in the 2026-08-22 audit (previously "≤10 days / application ≤15 days"); the applicant's 15-day period would correspond to art. 60 bis of later amendments, to be cross-checked in Governmental Accord 317-2019. The exact category for "manufacture of wearing apparel" in the schedule in force (B1 or B2 depending on scale?) and the typical cost and time of the instrument were not obtained.
The research is written in English; quoted figures, source names and the titles of legal instruments stay in the language their source published them in.

This layer is research: read from public sources by the archive's own team, every claim cited with the date it was consulted, and audited where it is marked so. It has not entered the verified store — no figure here was fetched back from its source or stamped with a retrieval time — so it wears no red provenance numeral and never mixes with the verified figures.
