SUMMARY:Prescribed cultural burn near Bonneau Rd Information meeting
DESCRIPTION:Prescribed cultural burn near Bonneau Rd Information meeting\n\nNovember 13th\, 5:00pm at New Horizons building.\n\n\n\nOn November 13\, 2024\, at 5:00pm\, at the New Horizon Centre\, the TSD division would like to invite community members to a presentation regarding the plans for a Prescribed–Cultural Burn on the south facing hill side and plateau above Bonneau Road. There will be representatives of the First Nations Emergency Services Society (FNESS) and Foresite Consulting who are working with the TSD Division to plan and manage this burn.\n\n\nThe intent of the meeting would be to introduce the project\, discuss the steps involved in the planning and to consult the community on objectives. It must be stated that weather conditions would have to be ideal for the burn to proceed. We want to engage community members in a discussion and hear any questions or concerns community members may have. Dinner will be served at 5pm prior to the meeting.\n\nWe are sensitive and aware that after the devastating impacts of the White Rock Lake Fire on the OKIB community\, and specifically the Six Mile area\, that community members would be rightly concerned about any fire or smoke close to our community. However\, we also know that each spring many community members undertake their own limited burns to the grasses and shrubs around their properties to reduce the risk of fire to their homes and outbuildings. Historically\, Indigenous communities undertook spring burns of the underbrush and pastures near their communities to improve the grazing landscape\, which also reduced the threat of wildfire.\nPlease Join us at the New Horizon Center at 5:00 pm on November 13\, 2024\, to learn more about this proposed Community Wildfire Protection Project\n\n\n\nMaurice Evans\nEmergency Program Coordinator
