Emergency assistance to keep the health and safety of workers.

Trans Mountain is available to assist in wildfire management in BC.

We have offered the use of our camp communities in Merritt and Clearwater for evacuees and are currently housing evacuees and firefighters working in the area in our Merritt facility. In Kamloops, work was stood down in Kenna Cartwright Park and Pineview Park areas as requested by the City of Kamloops, with team members helping to mitigate fire risk by wetting and cutting grass in areas under active construction for the Expansion Project. Trans Mountain also supported the Robson Valley Fire Service response efforts with a skidder and water tank after a fire ignited in the North Thompson region.

Deer season and ruffled grouse ( Id be ruffled if there was open season on me)!: start open season mid August in some areas. However limited entry draws were drawn in mid June and may still be of use during emergency wildfire activities. The best laymen advise we have is to stay out the bush.

Ponderosa sports

The people of Ponderosa sports in Merritt have knowledge and will ML tell you to check the guide and Covid-19 restrictions on line as well as emergency conditions. Its common sense that putting yourself or workers in unnecessary danger can be a lot of trouble.

Sample attitude of public health officials across Atlantic Canada.

The road ahead is now clear but there are no shortcuts if you want to see New Brunswick reach that green level as quickly as possible please go out and get yourself vaccinated and encourage your family and friends to do the same thank you very much good afternoon .It is important that we don’t lose sight of our objective we know that there’s been some differences and and how we’re rolling out and moving forward in the end and of getting beyond covid we also know that we’re all very tired of this and no one’s any more tired of of than I am but this isn’t a time to lose control or lose patience or cause disruptions to friend and neighbors this is a time that we exercise restraint we keep moving in a direction that’s getting us back to life as normal and we do so in our respective areas that are providing the best health care needs and opportunities we are on the cusp here of getting back to green (normal) and will work through the issues within Atlantic region and I’m confident that we will be able to do so I’m going to be meeting with my with my colleagues our view hasn’t changed we are very comfortable with the recommendations of public health we’re very comfortable with the capabilities in our respective provinces the border between Atlanta provinces and we will make all of this work. It was a path to Green.

The survivors of the mutiny on the bounty reach Timor.

British Columbia is just under 75 percent immunization of the adult population. That’s 75 percent that has some immunization, be sure to get your second shot to make that 75 percent solid.. The health workers are vaccinating three hundred thousand a week at this point. This puts us within about 5 percent of a strong herd immunity. When complete (à static population with that much immunization would be mostly assured that it will not take off out of control .. Here’s hoping that this continues to a point of total breaking of the virus and its demonstrative end in BC.

Nothing taken for granted…

Variants and the unknown are still a concern. For a hope going forward caution with action is being applied. Vaccination is the key at this point

Invitations coming after eight weeks.

Invitations for the second dose are coming after 8 weeks from the 1st dose and the health people are relying on bookings to insure doses for each day are enough. A letter, email, or text will be delivered to all that got their number one shot..

Prune to 3 meters: BC Hydro…

These trees didn’t grow

Plan when planting and prune to a three meter gap from power limes. BC Hydro says power can jump a gap of up to 3 meters.

Three meters…

Electricity has the ability to arc across a gap from its source (the power line) and electrify objects within three metres. This can include you, the tools or ladder you’re using, and parts of the tree, leading to serious injury or even death. That’s why keeping a safe distance is always important.

Planting near power lines: BC Hydro

There are some special considerations when planting near power lines to help avoid potential issues, like the tree falling on the power line during a storm, or growing into the line.

Here are some important tips to follow before you purchase new trees or hedges for your property:

Different trees for different space.

The three zones to be aware of before planting a new tree in your yard. 

Right hight right light.

Low zone: This area extends five metres on either side of the power line. Trees planted here should have a maximum mature height of six metres or less.

Medium zone: This area extends from the edge of the low zone to a distance of 10 metres from the pole and power line. The maximum, mature height of trees in this zone should be 12 metres. Overheight trees in this zone cause the majority of outages.

Tall zone: Once you’re in an area more than 10 metres from power lines and poles, virtually any strong, healthy tree is fine to be planted in this area.
