P.R. Laws tit. 23, § 11022e
The General Construction Permit shall be the authorization required for the construction of works or structures in compliance with the applicable building codes as provided by the Joint Permit for Construction and Land Use Regulations (hereinafter the Joint Permit Regulations) adopted pursuant to §§ 9011 et seq. of this title, or the Land Ordinance Plan of the Autonomous Municipality in question. The General Construction Permit shall include, in its determination, the following individual permits recognized under the Joint Permit Regulations adopted pursuant to §§ 9011 et seq. of this title when the construction of the works or structures does not require any variation or exception whatsoever from the applicable requirements of the Joint Permit Regulations for each individual permit:
(1) Construction Permit.
(2) Consolidated Construction Permit.
(3) Authorization for Cutting, Trimming, Transplanting, and Planting Trees.
(4) Permit for Activities Incidental to Works and Simple Permits for Moving Earth Crust.
Autonomous municipalities opting out of the streamlined process provided under this subchapter shall only be empowered to grant the Construction Permit under this General Permit process, since it is the only individual permit mentioned herein whose granting has been delegated thereto in accordance with §§ 4001 et seq. of Title 21, known as the “Autonomous Municipalities Act.” All other individual permits shall be presented before the Permit Management Office through the General Permit process as soon as the General Construction Permit has been obtained from the autonomous municipality.
