This new service provides a framework for members of public to apply for simple permits issued by the Forest Management Branch (FMB). It replaces the Personal Use Fuel Wood (PUFW) system that is currently supported on the POSSE architecture, to a new architecture supported by the ESRI suite (ArcGIS online) and provides a means for members of the public (referred to as clients) to apply for a PUFW permit, or a Morel Mushroom permit for commercial purposes (generally referred to as ‘forest resources permit’). The service will allow clients to log into the system using MyYukon for authentication and will store basic personal information (name, address, and contact information) in order to issue the permit document.
The system will also be utilized by Compliance, Monitoring, and Inspections employees to enter information on behalf of the client. Additionally, it will facilitate contacting the client as needed to verify harvest totals and to ensure adherence to regulations and policies.
