Purpose
The project seeks to reduce the risk of future wildfires within the Resort Municipality of Whistler through completing fuel management treatments to 12 high-risk areas in the Cheakamus Community Forest. These treatments include strategic thinning, pruning, removing fuel from the forest floor, creating wildfire breaks, and constructing a defensible space for fire-fighting crews. Once complete, the project will significantly reduce the number of residents without essential services and loss of lives and/or missing people that are created by evacuations and property damage.
