“We gave people ample notice, but those who chose to stay put my staff at tremendous risk in the path of the fire to get them out of harm’s way. Do not put my people in the position that some others did today.” - Scott Rennick, BC Wildfire Incident Commander, August 5

Please do not put yourselves and others at risk. If you are under an Evacuation Order LEAVE immediately. The White Rock Lake Fire is burning aggressively, and high winds are expected to continue through the night. It is NOT SAFE for you to stay.

The BCWS is conducting water bucketing with helicopters in the Two Mile and Swansea Point areas near Sicamous. Boaters are making their job more difficult by boating where the helicopters are filling their buckets in Mara Lake. All boaters should stay away from this area. #CSRD
