Basic information
Have you applied for a permit for an installation that requires approval? If so, you can also apply to the competent authority for permission to begin construction of the facility ahead of schedule.
The competent authority can revoke the permit at any time. In addition, the approval may be subject to conditions or granted conditionally if you still have to meet certain requirements. The conditions are intended to ensure that the installation can be dismantled if it is not approved. To this end, the competent authority may require you to provide security. Collateral can be, for example, the deposit of money or securities as well as guarantees.
