A Conservation & Management Permit (321 CMR 10.23; CMP) is only required after we have determined, based on a MESA Project Review, that the proposed project will result in a "Take" of state-listed species. Refer to the application guidelines for the necessary information. See MESA Conservation & Management Permit Overview for additional information. We strongly encourage you to request a pre-filing consultation with us prior to submitting a CMP Application.
