You may need a Firearm Safety Certificate. My brother took the test a few years ago; I didn't hear him complain about it being hard. National parks usually have dedicated areas for shooting, and they may not provide firearms, so you have to bring your own.

From what I've heard, we need to show that the proposed variance is not caused by what we did. The variance should not alter the environment's characteristics or create further issues. The appeal sounds complicated, but it sounds like you're well prepared. Good luck!

I'm sorry for my late reply. We did our research too, and found that we could travel to Canada, Mexico, and even Guam if we wanted to. Planning the trip will be so much fun! Thank you for your answers.

California plans to streamline permitting related to desalination plants for better water supply. Our water bills will skyrocket, but do we have better options? Maybe we can avoid it once we can better utilize greener energy sources. I also hope the project won't impact ocean life negatively.

I'm glad to hear that hazardous materials are rarely found during construction. The inspections worked as intended then. I couldn't imagine such an unusual mistake would affect the office's ability to handle RTI unless they overlooked some information during the review. That would warrant a...

If you live in California, it may be worth switching to solar panels. The decision depends on whether you have plans to move, how much sunlight your area gets, and whether you can apply for tax credits or incentives. After all, the installation and maintenance of solar panels are not cheap. It's...

Thank you. My friend is from Singapore, and we checked he is eligible for the ESTA. He had been fully vaccinated for COVID as well. We are thinking of visiting Canada for a few days. Can we go with this kind of visa?

Assuming this is a one-time event, I believe you can apply for a temporary food establishment permit. Food trucks usually require a permit from the police and fire department too, but you better check with the event organizers first. They may need your documents for the event permit anyway.

If I applied for a permit to renovate my carport and had to wait two weeks, I'd probably feel frustrated. I understand that bigger projects take longer to approve. As customers, we don't know how many applications each staff member has to handle. We hear stories of other areas processing the...

I was curious if there was an update on the case. The last article was in July when the yoga teachers lost the battle in court. I wonder if there are so many illegal cases related to yoga classes for the city to be this strict. Have they considered creating a permit system to teach yoga instead...

Do you have friends in foreign countries who have traveled to the US recently? Do we still need to provide COVID-related documents? One of my friends wants to visit but is unsure about the process.

Remember to check the property line and notify your neighbors if the fence is shared. You can also confirm with the office if your neighbors need to provide legal documents to support your permit.

Building projects in California require permits for energy and heat efficiency. It's good to know the city considers such specific environmental aspects early, so contractors should be aware of the impact of their projects too. It's sad that people still think about working without proper...

Cities like San Francisco do require permits for food charity, but it's usually free anyway. I take it as a way to ensure the minimal health requirements are met. Like Cass, I'm worried if they are pushing this too hard, it will only cause people to give food without permits, creating bigger...

It's weird for an institution that has been around for ages like EPA to have confusing numbers for their standard. However, if sewage water truly enters people’s homes and causes health issues, the city should be held accountable as well.
