If the project owner has not given notice to the Corporation under subsection 7 (2) of the Act, the project owner has notified the Corporation at least 90 days before any excavation or dig is expected to commence that the conditions set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 are satisfied and, as a result, that section 7 of the Act does not apply with respect to the project.
4. If the project owner has given notice to the Corporation under subsection 7 (2) of the Act, the project owner has subsequently notified the Corporation and all affected members that the conditions set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 are satisfied and, as a result, that section 7 of the Act does not apply with respect to the project.
