Drought Level 4<br />
<strong>–</strong> reduced water<br />
usage requested<br />
The province’s water management<br />
branch has declared drought level 4<br />
in the Lower Columbia region due to<br />
lower than normal stream flow, lack of<br />
rain, and very warm temperatures. In<br />
order to conserve water, their recommended<br />
action is to voluntarily reduce<br />
water usage by 50%.<br />
Here is what the City is doing to help:<br />
• Reducing watering times in some<br />
City parks and green spaces by<br />
50%. Although this may result in<br />
brown grass in some areas, the<br />
City deems it more important to<br />
preserve water during this time.<br />
Here is what you can do to help:<br />
• Reduce the amount of lawn<br />
watering with conventional<br />
methods (a hose and sprinkler<br />
head) by 50%.<br />
• Run automatic sprinklers for 15<br />
minutes per zone rather than the<br />
permitted 30 minutes per zone.<br />
• Continue to refrain from wetting<br />
down sidewalks and driveways.<br />
• Repair or replace leaky faucets,<br />
worn toilet flapper and fill valves,<br />
shower heads, and leaky irrigation<br />
lines.<br />
The City of <strong>Trail</strong> thanks you in<br />
advance for your cooperation in helping<br />
us preserve this precious resource,<br />
and reminds you that water conservation<br />
is a global concern.<br />

Portion Great<br />
Northern <strong>Trail</strong><br />
closed to<br />
motorized use<br />
The Regional District of Central<br />
Kootenay (RDCK) is closing a 22 km<br />
portion of the Nelson-Salmo Great<br />
Northern <strong>Trail</strong> to motorized use due to<br />
extreme wildfire danger. The affected<br />
portion of the trail starts at Hall Creek<br />
(north of Ymir) and runs south to<br />
Salmo. Under normal conditions, use<br />
by off-road recreational vehicles is<br />
allowed on this portion of the trail.<br />
“Due to the current extreme wildfire<br />
risk facing much<br />
of the province,<br />
we are closing<br />
this portion of<br />
the trail to offroad<br />
and motorized<br />
vehicles until<br />
further notice,”<br />
said Joe Chirico,<br />
General Manager<br />
of Community<br />
Services at the<br />
RDCK. “Vehicles<br />
of all kinds<br />
can spark fires<br />
for a number of<br />
reasons, and this<br />
is one step we<br />
can take to help<br />
keep our trails<br />
and communities<br />
safe.”<br />
Signs indicating<br />
the closures<br />
have been posted<br />
at trail access<br />
points.<br />
