W.E.T.T. Certificate Inspection

 Tom Rasmussen from Gold River will be in town to do a W.E.T.T. inspection. His travelling cost is $300. I was hoping someone else in town might require a WETT inspection and if so, we could split the cost of his trip to the village. Please let me know if anyone would like Mr. Rasmussen to attend their house too and I will be happy to book your time with him for the 28th (July). Janice 778-554-0413

Wood smoke reduction program

 We are pleased to announce a call for proposals for the 2023/2024 Community Wood Smoke Reduction Program (previous Wood Stove Exchange Program). The program seeks to incentivize and assist British Columbia homeowners in replacing older, higher-emission wood stoves with cleaner heating options, including heat pumps, pellet stoves, and cleaner-burning wood stoves. The program is available to communities around the province and provides funding to promote the exchange and offer incentives to replace old wood stoves. It also funds education to help people operate their wood-burning appliances efficiently. The B.C. ENV and B.C. Lung Foundation are currently soliciting proposals from communities that want to participate in the program. Applications for the program should be submitted no later than September 1, 2023. Successful applicants will receive funding for their projects for the 2023/2024 term.

 

For more information about the B.C. Community Wood Smoke Reduction Program, the application process, and the evaluation criteria, please visit our website at https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/environment/air-land-water/air/air-pollution/smoke-burning/smoke-reduction-program/community-funding

 

We look forward to receiving your proposals and working together towards cleaner, healthier air in British Columbia!
