At Okeover Arm I.W.A. Local 2171 and the First Nations Sliammon Band assisted FRBC and B.C. Parks in the building of a new 18 unit camping area. This camping area provides additional camping space while protecting an archeologically sensitive site in Okeover Arm Provincial Park camping area. A training component was included in the Porpoise Bay project. This diverted the training component of the funding and provided a longer work period for both groups. In the end, the parks received some badly needed attention creating work for residents of the area.
All comments welcome.
