KAMLOOPS — The Thompson-Nicola Regional District (TNRD), in partnership with the Canadian Red Cross and the B.C. government, says it will assist with debris cleanup for those who lost structures in the wildfires of 2021.
The program focuses on rural electoral areas of the TNRD such as Monte Lake, Tranquille and Botanie Valley. Lytton debris removal is being coordinated by the Village of Lytton.
Those who lost structures and need assistance with debris removal are asked to contact the TNRD to register for the program. Registrations and assessments of properties will go on over the next few months with clean up set to begin in spring.
Structures that burnt down can contain asbestos and lead. The contaminated ash can pollute the environment and surrounding properties.
