Empowering residents with FireSmart education
More so than ever before, Canadians are feeling the direct and indirect impacts of wildfire.
The Peace River Regional District partners with local wildfire experts every year to deliver the FireSmart BC program to rural residents.
Our region is particularly vulnerable to wildfire due to the many areas where wildland and urban environments interface, and combined with strong winds throughout the fire season, this creates a climate of unique fire risk.
Being FireSmart is about making small changes year-round so your property is prepared for the next wildfire. A proactive approach to wildfire preparedness has been shown to reduce the risk of loss of life and property in the most extreme wildfire conditions.
The Peace River Regional District FireSmart BC Program is proud to offer support for seniors and persons with mobility issues. This service is for community members who may have difficulty completing FireSmart activities themselves. Our goal is to help FireSmart 60 properties within the Regional District.
