The Jasper Recovery Coordination Centre is working on a process to expedite demolition, remediation, and debris removal work in the town. Contractors are required to work within Parks Canada's environmental plan requirements. 

Property owners: talk to your insurance adjusters. Find out about your policy and if your insurance company is taking part in the mass debris removal program, which is a coordinated effort between Parks Canada, Municipality of Jasper and the Insurance Bureau of Canada to expedite debris removal and permitting processes.  

As we begin debris removal at fire-affected sites, air quality monitoring and a zero-dust requirement will be mandatory for debris-removal permits and Occupational Health and Safety compliance. Departmental representatives will conduct monitoring at each worksite.  

Further, the Municipality of Jasper is in the process of bringing in a consultant to monitor air quality across the community throughout the debris removal and rebuild process.
