Residents in the Rose Valley and Bear Creek Road neighbourhoods may notice smoke plumes in the forest this weekend as forest fuel mitigation work continues in the vicinity.
Since October 27, Westbank First Nation (WFN), in partnership with the District of West Kelowna (DWK), has been undertaking forest fuel mitigation work in the forest near these neighbourhoods.
Heartland Economics LP, a WFN wholly owned company, is administering the project. The work is being carried out within the WFN Community Forest both inside and adjacent to DWK's municipal boundaries. The work will take place at:
- An area north of the Rosewood Drive subdivision; and,
- Bear Creek Road - approximately 5.5 km from its junction with Westside Road.
WFN will place signage in the vicinity of the work sites to alert the public of the work underway. Open burning will occasionally be required to dispose of debris.
DWK and WFN thank the public for patience and understanding during this essential wildfire mitigation project.
