Can My Pool Contractor Get the Environmental NOC?

Your pool contractor can coordinate the environmental NOC, but the drainage drawings need to be prepared properly and submitted to Dubai Municipality’s Environment Department with the owner’s documents. Many contractors work with an engineering consultant like us to prepare and submit it.

Who Does What

The owner provides plot and ownership documents; the consultant designs the drainage route — from the filter to a pressure-breaking manhole, through a gully trap and into the villa’s existing manhole — and prepares the drawings; the contractor builds what is approved.
