Keremeos Mayor Manfred Bauer talks FireSmart with Frontline Operations Group

Another great example of a Community Leader, Chair of the Board for the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary - Diane Langman talks about her first FireSmart Home Assessment.

Another successful FireSmart event reducing home and property's risk to wildfire. This past weekend, the SilverStar FireSmart Community was able to remove enough fuel to fill a 60 Cu M truck full of wood chips. These chips will be used as fuel in a biomass energy system. Well done!! Big shout out to local Community Champion, Norman Crerar, for actively engaging his community in doing their part to reduce their risk to wildfire. As well, big thank-you's to local volunteers, in...cluding Chalet Snow Removal, for providing trucks and trailers to relocate the fuel to a central location to be chipped, and to Fink Machine Inc. for chipping and hauling all of the biomass. Lastly thank-you to the Regional District of North Okanagan for advocating for FireSmart work by continually applying for funding through the Community Resiliency Investment program (managed by Union of British Columbia Municipalities). If you are interested in making your neighborhood or community FireSmart, please don't hesitate to contact Frontline Operations for information.

This is the full feature FireSmart presentation as would be delivered by Frontline Operations Group at a live public event. In an effort to make this education more accessible during the pandemic we've created this comprehensive video.
