The CEPA Environmental Registry is a comprehensive source of public information relating to activities under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999). In addition to providing up-to-date copies of current CEPA 1999 instruments, the primary objective of the Environmental Registry is to encourage and support public participation in environmental decision-making, by facilitating access to documents arising from the administration of the Act.

Under Section 12 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999, the Minister of the Environment is mandated to establish a registry, to be called the "Environmental Registry". The Environmental Registry may be referred to as the "CEPA Environmental Registry" or the "CEPA Registry".
