Our climate is changing, and wildfire seasons are becoming longer and drier. The only way to tackle wildfire preparedness, prevention, and mitigation is to work together.
FireSmart is essential for protecting your property and community. Everyone has a role to play, and the time to act is before wildfire season arrives
Performing a few simple tasks, such as clearing your gutters, moving combustible materials to a safe distance from your home, and choosing wildfire-resistant vegetation, could help protect your home from a wildfire. Small, consistent actions help protect entire neighbourhoods.
Steps you can take to reduce your and your neighbourhood’s risk:
- Sign up for a free, confidential FireSmart Home Assessment by visiting https://firesmartbcplatform.ca/request-home-inspection, selecting Radium Hot Springs from the Jurisdictions drop-down menu, then filling out the rest of the form and submitting it.
