License asteroid extraction activity

An activity license with benefit-sharing and closure obligations, not celestial ownership.

REScommissionUnion-wide competence

What this procedure decides

License a bounded extraction activity with public, worker and closure obligations.

Reviewers obtain competent environmental, protection and worker findings, disclose community benefits and record the funded closure or safe-retirement duty.

Acting in the right capacity

Companies and cooperatives

Suppliers, licensed operators, enterprises, worker-owned organisations and professional providers. Name the legal or cooperative operator, your authority to act and any supplier or utility interfaces. Commercial, technical and civic permissions remain separate findings.

Public administrations

Local councils, regional offices, Union bodies and authorised public-service delegates. Name the originating power, receiving scope, authorised delegate, reserved decisions and the event at which the other office accepts a duty.

Prepare assessable evidence

  1. Extraction plan

    Identify the source custodian, version and purpose of extraction plan. The footprint, material custody and end-of-activity plan identify the proposal. Resource recovery does not confer ownership of the celestial body or government over its residents.

  2. Dust and impact controls

    For dust and impact controls, name the receiving scope and any outstanding acceptance. Explain a missing or disputed element instead of silently replacing it with an unrelated record.

  3. Closure finance

    For closure finance, provide the independently assessable finding or agreed alternative. State its conditions, expiry or material-change trigger; a favourable summary is not a substitute for the source.

Alternative evidence and a disputed source

Identify the missing element, its custodian and the alternative you can provide. Preserve conflicting versions and explain the difference. The receiving office states what it can establish and which question remains open.

Read the result before accepting its scope

A conditional activity instrument, revised footprint, further evidence or refusal.

Changes in processing, area, sponsor or custody reopen the relevant scope. Sold material does not discharge the originating closure obligation.

Who can use this service

An accountable extraction operator or cooperative with named worker, protection and closure interfaces. Resource custody does not grant territorial sovereignty or unrestricted access.

Prepare a request

The online workflow supports residents and authorized representatives, operators, researchers and public delegates. A saved receipt stays on this browser. The PDF packet provides a fillable offline record.

Timing, costs and review

The local register issues a receipt when the request is recorded. Published service clocks use receipt and verified-completeness events; numeric deadlines remain charter decisions in this fictional edition.

Any fee, exemption or numeric deadline must be published by the competent institution. This edition does not invent a currency or fee schedule.
