| Abstract/Description or Keywords |
Tl’azt’en First Nation is looking to reintroduce an effective water treatment system for the Middle River community. Located over 110 km from Fort St. James, BC, Middle River currently has five to eight year-round residents, and an additional five to 10 non-permanent residents. Middle River is currently under a boil water advisory. The community has one dedicated water treatment operator. Over the course of two days during the summer of 2015, RES'EAU-WaterNET staff met with several elected counselors from Tl’azt’en First Nation, elders, the chief and several public works staff. There exists significant support from public works employees, elected officials, and band members to implement a new pilot-water treatment plant at its’ earliest opportunity. |
