Application for a Non-farm Use to Place Fill or Remove Soil Certain non-farm use proposals involving the placement of fill or the removal of soil may qualify for exemption from the application filing requirement. Part 3 of the Agricultural Land Reserve Use, Subdivision and Procedure Regulation specifies the notification requirements and the farm uses and non-farm uses involving the placement of fill and removal of soil that qualify for exemption. A Notice of Intent form must be filed with Provincial Agricultural Land Commission. See Notice of Intent for further information on this process. If the proposal does not qualify for exemption, the landowner must file an application for a non-farm use. There is a specific application form for this type of non-farm use proposal. See Application to Place Fill or Remove Soil under the Agricultural Land Commission Act. The application process is the same as for an application by a landowner.
