T.O.P.S. Take Off Pounds Sensibly Photo by Steve Arstad
Menolo (left) and Francis were relaxing in Memorial Park on Saturday. The two, who had been following the fruit harvest in the Similkameen, were in the process of moving on as the season winds down. Manolo, who hails from Spain, said that he had come to Canada to work, but was spending all the money he made. Francis, who is from the Lower Mainland, said there was difficult finding adequate work in the fields and orchards this year. “Every year, there seems to be less and less,” he observed.
Residents urge regional district to move forward with sewer extension Planned extension of Okanagan Falls sewage system depends on senior government funding By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Sewer line expansion from Okanagan Falls to Skaha Estates and Kaleden will proceed when senior government funding becomes available, residents were told at the October 16 town hall meeting in Okanagan Falls. One hundred and forty lots, comprising 32 hectares and bounded by an area east of Oak Avenue, along Alder and Ponderosa and including First and Fifth Avenues will be hooked up to the Okanagan Falls wastewater
treatment plant in the first phase, Regional District Okanagan Falls Engineer Liisa Bloomfield told those assembled. “The bench area of upper Kaleden is not economically feasible at present,” Bloomfield explained. Current plans - which are conceptual only - route the sewer line up Eastside Road to Skaha Estates. From there, it will travel underneath Skaha Lake to the Kaleden lakeshore. There are 183 connections in Skaha Estates. Estimates peg the cost for Kaleden at 7.8 million dollars, or $154,000 per connection; however with two thirds funding, that figure will drop to $18,000 per connection. Kaleden ratepayers would be on the hook for 3,220 metres of gravity sewers, 1,600 metres of forcemain, 1,000 metres of lake

forcemain and two liftstations. Skaha Estates costs are estimated at 7.8 million dollars, with individual connections ultimately pegged at $15,000. Skaha Estates ratepayers would be paying for 4,400 metres of gravity sewers, 1,000 metres of forcemain and two liftstations. The forcemain from Skaha Estates to the wastewater treatment plant would be cost shared between the two communitys. Several residents present at the meeting urged the regional district to continue work towards bringing the sewer connection to the two communities. Bloomfield outlined next steps, which included the development of a preliminary design, applying for grant funds and creating a service area. She said work on the connection could begin in as early as five years.

Okanagan Falls residents discuss incorporation Two phase, provincially funded study would make information and options available to Okanagan Falls residents
hands of those in favour of studying incorporation, the result of which appeared to be evenly split between yes and no. Many of those attending were concerned about costs associated with both incorporation and the studies themselves. “Who’s paying for this?” asked By Steve Arstad another resident, to which Siddon news@keremeosreview.com replied that it would come through provincial expenditures. “What part of ‘no’ don’t you unOkanagan Falls incorporation derstand?” asked an Eastside Road was the hottest topic discussed at resident, to which Siddon replied the October 16 town hall meeting that he hadn’t heard any more “no” held at the Okanagan Falls seniors than he had “yes.” centre. “We came here for the lifestyle of Area “D” Director Tom Siddon described the past attempt to incor- the town,” the resident continued, “other people want sidewalks, they porate Okanagan Falls in the early want streetlights - they want exactly 1990s, noting that the community what they left when they came here. had been in existence for 115 years, We like the dark, we like to see the and never incorporated. stars.” He described different forms of Siddon asked the assembly how governance the people of Okanathey felt about the community gan Falls might want to consider, were they satisfied with it the way intimating that a provincial deciit was, or did sion regarding funding of a they want to governance study - part one develop and of a two stage study - might I asked the mayor change with be imminent. of Keremeos, present reali“If the province agrees to Mayor Bauer, the ties, to which a governance study, it doesn’t other day, how he a show of assume anything,” he said. liked the system hands apof government in “Should the governance Keremeos ... peared to be, study yield favourable results, - Tom Siddon once again, there would be an incorpoevenly split ration study.

ence, “ if we don’t start moving the downtown core forward, we’re going to end up looking like poor old Oroville,” to which he received scattered applause. Another resident said that while he didn’t favour incorporation, he felt that the last time the issue was raised, there wasn’t sufficient information available to make a reasoned decision. “At the end of the day, we will decide whether what will happen,” he said. “Whether or not that is incorporation, it will be our decision. Getting this study started - getting it done, can only give us the information we need.” Former Penticton councillor Joanne Grimaldi asked Siddon why he felt the community needed a mayor and council to replace Siddon, noting that the regional district currently provided Okanagan Falls with administration. “After 22 years of council, I’m very familiar with what goes behind the mayor and council, and all of the infrastructure, the public works, the electrical, the administration, the treasurer, clerk, etc., so perhaps you can explain?” Siddon replied that he didn’t know the answers either, noting that Grimaldi, as former councillor had powers and jurisdiction that he, as director, did not have. “We don’t control our own destiny,” Siddon said. Siddon stated further that it wasn’t his life’s wish to become the mayor of Okanagan Falls, but he believed there was a place for democracy at the community level. “I asked the mayor of Keremeos, Mayor Bauer, the other day, how he liked the system of government in Keremeos - would he go back? ‘We’d never go back, he (Bauer) said, ‘we control our own destiny when it comes to developing the amenities of that community’ - and we don’t control our own destiny,” Siddon commented anecdotally. continued on page 16

Child Care Worker Leslie Silviusjoins students Emma Merritt, Mike Moroz, Courtney Catastrophee, and Ashley Brown as they wrap bread for distribution to various programs at Similkameen Elementary Secondary School on Wednesday, October 16. The school has partnered with Cobs Bread in Penticton to use the bakery’s excess bread.
Similkameen Elementary Secondary School program partners with breadmaker By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com Similkameen Elementary Secondary School’s alternate program recently partnered with Cobs Bread of Penticton, receiving a large bin of bread on Wednesday, October 16. SESS’ alternate program class individually wraps the bread, which comes in a variety of loaf styles and flavours. The school uses the bread in the elementary and secondary school in a variety of programs. including: the alternate class, the Aborginal education program, the cafeteria program and the breakfast programs.
Any remaining loaves are distributed to the local food bank. “The program is actually a partnership with the community,” said Naomi Ludington, who heads up the SESS Alternate Program. “The bread gets used in breadfast and lunch programs at the school, in addition to being donated to the local food bank.” Ludington said that the program will continue on a weekly basis, with the school receiving loaves each Monday morning. Cobs Bread was pleased to find a way to distribute their bread through this program, rather than throwing excess loaves away.
South Okanagan Women in Need Society receives $5,000 grant Contributed The South Okanagan Women in Need Society (SOWINS) is the recipient of funding from the Valley First Foundation for our project “WE - Nourishing the Nurturing Nature of Women”. WE - Nourishing the Nurturing Nature of Women is an innovative program that combines personal growth and food security; a natural link for empowering women and providing a foundation for life-long changes for abused women. The funding is integral to the success of the program. Valley First is to be commended for its dedication to improving lives in our community through the recognition and support of food security. The program is for women to learn and practice food security basics. Participants
will learn how to garden, prepare and preserve their produce and stretch their food budget while choosing a healthy diet. Rooted in the healing benefits of gardening and the empowerment of developing self-reliance, the project will help each woman develop her ability to nourish and nurture herself and her children. Participants may also expand their social support network and community connectedness through the collaborative decision making, planning and working together that will form the foundation of this project. If it sounds interesting for yourself or someone you know, please contact Samarpan at the SOWINS office to learn more - 250-493-4366 ext 110 or fundraising@ sowins.com

Editorial Incorporation costs must be clarified The issue of an incorporation study for Okanagan Falls was the main topic of interest at last week’s town hall meeting in that community. It was difficult to gage the degree of sentiment, pro or con, of residents at the gathering to the prospect of having Okanagan Falls become a village. However, at Area “D” Director Tom Siddon’s request for a show of hands on the issue, it would probably be fair to say that there appeared to be roughly equal votes for and against the idea. Based on the meeting, it appears residents are ready to look at a provincially funded study for incorporation, at the very least. It was interesting to note that two speakers from the audience - one a former municipal staffer and another who was a former councillor - warned those present about the costs inherent in incoporation, costs related to infrastructre through administration and the various new responsibilities the community would be responsible for. The former municipal staffer felt that the study was necessary in order to make an informed decision, but also had reservations that the cost of incorporation would be too high. Should the province decide to fund a study in the coming weeks or months, it will be interesting to see what information will ultimately be provided. There was a strong sentiment at the meeting that the cost of incorporation had to be revealed before an informed decision could be made. Hopefully if a study is done it will include an easy to understand breakdown of the cost of incorporation - because at this point in time, that appears to be the biggest issue factoring into the descision that Okanagan Falls residents may ultimately have to face.

At the local level, our health care system looks pretty good to me By Steve Arstad news@keremeosreview.com My family has been fortunate that we haven’t yet had serious or chronic illness to deal with. Like most people, however, we have had a few occasions where one member of the family or another has been hospitalized. For me, it has always been during these periods when I most thankful that I live in Canada. As much bad publicity as we seem to hear everyday about the health care system in Canada, I have to say I personally have few reasons not to appreciate what we have here. I realize that it’s expensive, that other people haven’t perhaps been as fortunate as my family has when it comes to health care services, but it sure is comforting to know that you can get sick in this country, with a pretty good chance of getting excellent treat-
ment, without ending up bankrupt. Case in point. Recently, my 90 year old father went into Penticton Regional Hospital for a routine procedure, routine for a younger generation, at least. My dad developed some post surgical complications, symptoms of which became apparent on the day of his discharge. He ended up spending 16 days in hospital when generally one or two would suffice. Things were pretty dicey for the first few days following his operation, as medical staff performed tests and came up with a diagnosis. But within a couple of days, his treatment began to take effect, and he was eventually discharged, pretty exhausted by the ordeal, but on the whole, healthier than when he went in. In spite of the fact that his hospital stay ended up being two weeks longer than anticipated, he was also able to return to his
own home with his bank account more or less intact. He could have lived without the procedure, but it would have severely compromised the quality of his life. “I don’t regret the choice I made,” he said, even when things were at their worst. I thought he had made the right decision, too, especially after seeing how his doctors and the rest of the hospital staff worked their magic. “If you’re sick, this is the place to be,” my dad said after one particularly bad day. He was very impressed with the care and attention the staff had for everyone in his room. “There are a lot of pretty nurses in here,” he observed another time. I began thinking maybe he had other reasons not to leave the hospital. My brother, who lives in Ontario, came out to visit. He, too was impressed with the professionalism and human touch exhibited by Pent-

icton Regional staff. The regular staff’s resources were bolstered by an infusion of nursing students from UBC Okanagan during my father’s stay. They took the time to small talk, got to know their patients and understand what their issues were. I think my dad’s case is an example of the compassion and professionalism that one can find in our system. I would like to think such a system will still be in place when I am older. There’s no end to media stories about our health care system’s problems, as well as stories about what goes wrong within the system. I agree we have problems that need to be solved, but from a personal point of view, the primary health care institution in our region - Penticton Regional Hospital and its staff - is not one of them. Thanks for everything you did guys - you really made my family’s Thanksgiving.

Business opportunities abound with a national park To the Editor: Since becoming an old coot, I have been enjoying ocean cruises, and thus meeting a lot of tourists and talking about holidays. I have talked with Canadians and Americans, of course, but also with countless tourists from Asia, Latin America and Europe. I have also travelled North America and Europe by automobile every year. Everywhere I go, I have asked people why they come to Canada on their holidays. The answer is almost always that they want to visit our national parks. On a recent cruise to Alaska, all these people told me that they had been to
Banff and Lake Louise and Kootenay National Park, but none had been to the Okanagan. Parks Canada knows this. They know that tourism brings a lot of foreign and domestic cash to the park’s region. And the merchants in the towns that happen to be lucky enough to be in or near national parks know it too. Ask storeowners and hoteliers and restaurant managers in Banff. There are a lot of reasons to desire a national park between Keremeos and the South Okanagan, but the business opportunities certainly make up a major one. Don’t you think?

October is the month to appreciate foster parents To the Editor: A message to Foster Parents from the Okanagan Foster Parents Association… Three Cheers for Foster Families! Foster parents you are a special breed! It takes a combination of love, care, firmness, boundaries, structure, nurture, forgiveness, compassion and toughness to meet the needs of our children in care. You open your homes, hearts and families to children that have complex issues, and special needs, this takes people like you with courage, determination, patience, empathy and strength. The Okanagan Foster Parents Association would like to express gratitude for your warmth and compassion. We also encourage you to pat yourselves on the back. The work done on a day to day basis by you the Foster Parents is invaluable, upstanding and often
unacknowledged. This month brings recognition to all foster parents for your continued commitment to improve the lives of children and youth, and to go above and beyond while meeting the needs of these children and youth. October is Foster Family Appreciation month in B.C. readers, if you know someone who is a foster parent, let them know how special they are. We at OFPA salute each and every one of them. As the Okanagan Foster Parents Associations’ new South Okanagan Foster Parent Coordinator, I look forward to establishing positive, empowering relationships with our Foster Parent Community and Community Partners. Sincerley, and in Appreciation, Melanie Boyko- South Okanagan Foster Parent Coordinator-OFPA
Report from Boundary-Similkameen MLA Linda Larson Fall is definitely here, and I hope everyone had a good summer. Each month, I will be sharing issues and challenges facing our government as our population ages, and some of the progress being made to address those issues. All of you are aware that over the next 20 years there will be even greater numbers of seniors needing health-related services, and that it will not be possible, given our smaller workforce, to keep funding health care at the current rate. There is a new guide called “My Voice: Expressing my wishes for future health care treatment,” available online atWWW.GOV. BC.CA/HEALTHYAGING, to help you and your family with advanced planning on aging and health care. Decisions made early about your housing, transportation and other areas of care will help you avoid making difficult choices when there may be fewer options. There are questions you need to address now. What will you do when you can no longer drive? Do you live where there is a public transportation system? Is there an alternative method of transportation in your community? What if you fall or have a mild stroke? Is your home wheelchair accessible? Each year one in three seniors will experience at least one fall accounting for 85 per cent of all injuries to seniors over 65. What if your spouse or partner dies or can no longer physically live with you? What other support system or family do you have that you can rely on? What can you do now to ensure you stay healthy longer? How will you stay connected to your community and continue to do all the things you currently enjoy? At the age of 55 or 60, we do not like to think about these issues, but it is better to sit down with family and talk about it now than to wait until a crisis happens later in life. I would encourage all of you to start having
these discussions early, and access the wide range of resources our province has made available. My role as Parliamentary Secretary for Seniors has afforded me the opportunity to raise awareness for these issues, and I look forward to continuing my work with the Ministry of Health. In our riding, as your MLA, there have also been several developments that I would like to discuss. My heart goes out to the people of Grand Forks, the Mayor, Council and Staff as they work through the issue surrounding the fire at the Town Hall. I know they continue to serve the community from their temporary space, while the damage is repaired. A special thanks to the wide-awake neighbour who prevented further damage, and the quick response of the fire department. On a more positive note, this is harvest time for our beautiful area. From apples, to pumpkins, to grapes - it is a busy time for all. Recognition for the hard work of our agriculture industry continues to come our way with the proclamation of Organic Farming Week in BC, just another way that government acknowledges the value and quality of the food we eat and the people who grow it. We also have a strong cattle industry in our area, and I’m looking forward to seeing a B.C. Beef brand take up more space in our stores in the future. Thanks to all the Volunteers from recent community events, including the Rock Creek Fair and the Keremeos Pepper Festival, who work hard to bring attention to our agriculture industry. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on all of these issues and other local concerns you might have. You can email me at Linda.

Director seeks clarification Keremeos Director Manfred Bauer asked regional district staffer Lindsay Bourque to find out what the provincial heritage branch intends to do with heritage sites like Keremeos Grist Mill and Gardens. He told the board and staff that he was receiving different messages from the heritage branch with respect to the Grist Mill, one that appeared to have the branch divesting itself of heritage sites, while the other message talked of developing business plans for the operation. “It’s a time sensitive issue,” Bauer said, “we need to know their objective. If they are not interested in heritage sites, we should know their intention there.” Area “G” Director Angelique Wood also expressed an urgency in a “need to know what’s going on.” W ATM NO LE!

4th Annual Kobau Park Halloween Dance @ Cawston Hall
Infocentre funding bylaw moves toward alternate approval process
Saturday, October 26 8:30 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. Local bands & performers Tickets at Similkameen Agencies & Cawston Marketplace
By Steve Arstad The Regional District Okanagan Similkameen Board of Directors gave three readings to a service establishment bylaw that would provide funding for the Similkameen Country Visitor Information Centre at the board’s October 3 meeting. The bylaw would replace grant in aid funding to the visitor centre, previously provided through the Village of Keremeos and Areas “B” and “G”. Establishment of a service will enable the infocentre to prepare annual budgets with the assurance of sustainable core funding from the regional district. Area “G” Director Angelique Wood said that the bylaw would give some certainty to the visitor centre operations, while Keremeos Mayor Manfred Bauer noted that the operating budget of the info centre had been subject to various budgets for the last 10 years. Before the board can adopt a service establishment bylaw, however, the province and service area voters must give their approval. It is anticipated that voter approval will come through the alternate approval process, where elector approval would be acheived if fewer than 10 per cent of electors in the service area submit elector response forms. The bylaw will now go to the provincial Inspector of Municipalities for consideration before returning for constituent approval.

bringing a wagon or cart to unload the candy in as they go door to door. If you’re taking other kids with you, set out the rules before you leave and make sure they understand. Instruct the kids to stay with you and off the lawns and out of the gardens. Remind the kids to say thank you, even if they get crappy candy. Be prepared to carry their props after a while. Inspect all candy when you get home. Throw away homemade, unwrapped or open candy. Let them have one piece of wrapped candy while on the walk as a treat/break. Bring a flashlight and give them glow sticks to wear. Don’t let them walk in the middle of the streets. Cars will still travel on roads October 31st. If the front light is out but they have Halloween decorations, there is a good chance that they have no more candy. If the lights are out and don’t have any decorations, the people are most likely hiding in the back and have no candy to give. Carry a small, portable first aid kit for those little cuts and injuries. Many people bring their dogs with them and dress them up in costumes such as a hot dog or a devil. Instruct the kids to ask the owner if they can pet the animal BEFORE they do. There is a good chance that the animal is embarrassed to be in a costume and may want to take it out on a kid. When the kids go to the door, stay close by and watch carefully. Set a strict curfew for older kids that go out on their own. Kids are NEVER to go into the house unless YOU know them. If you have to drive, slow down more than usual. Give the kids a snack before they go out. They won’t complain about being hungry and want to eat the candy. Take half the candy and place it in the freezer for use in the summer. Here are a few tips for homeowners on Halloween: 1. Keep the path to your door clear of all obstacles and well lit. 2. Don’t terrorize the kids. It’s all about fun and not making them wet their pants. 3. Be extremely careful with the candle in your pumpkin so that nothing bursts into flames, including a kid’s costume. Consider using a battery powered light or glow sticks. 4. Use flashlights, glow sticks or electric lights with the power cord safe and secured. 5. If you have a dog, keep it in another room and away from the door. 6. If you’re going to give candy, give only store bought and wrapped items such as chocolate bars, chips, etc. Loose candy will be thrown out by the parents. 7. Alternative giving can include pencils, erasers or stickers with a Halloween theme. 8. If you’ve spent a lot of time on your Halloween display, you may want to consider putting some sort of SAFE fencing around it so that everyone can enjoy it without it being trampled. 9. Halloween candy is magically calorie and fat free on October 31st so feel free to use the “one for you, one for me” rule. 10. Check out our website for more tips and special effects.

Spend the extra dollar and purchase quality make-up. You don’t want your kid to have that same look weeks later. If possible, design the costume to accommodate a sweater or even a jacket underneath depending on the weather. Make sure that all costumes and accessories are flame resistant. Keep in mind how much walking they’ll be doing for their age. You don’t want to have to carry your little ghoul home. Carry extra bags to dump candy in so the kids don’t get overly tired. If you have more than one kid to supervise, try

Board briefs
New RCMP Inspector Inspector Kevin Hewco, Officer in Charge of the South Okanagan Similkameen Regional Detachment, introduced himself to the regional district board on October 17. The new inspector, who takes over from Brad Haugli, promised to put an emphasis on “service delivery” with respect to the detachments under his command. The policeman, who has 27 years of experience under his belt, told the board that he was also aware of the cost of local policing. “It’s a big ticket item,” he said, “and I’m sensitive to that.” Budget variances The board was briefed on third quarter budget variances by RDOS Finance Manager Sandy Croteau. She told the board that the regional district was on track to have an overall surplus of $965,000 this year, but a large deficit is anticipated for Campbell Mountain landfill, which could be in the order of $450,000. The board was advised that it may have to consider a tax increase if deficits at Campbell Mountain continue. Unanticipated legal fees of $15,000 were incurred by the Keremeos and District Volunteer Fire Department this year, and capital expenditures over budget have also resulted in a deficit of $25,000 at the Keremeos landfill. Keremeos Director Manfred Bauer requested clarification on the landfill deficit. AAP deadline for Infocentre funding set The board agreed to set a deadline for elector response forms for the Alternate Approval Process regarding funding for the Similkameen Country Visitor Information Centre. A total of 4,088 eligible electors are in the Infocentre service area, thereby requiring 409 elector responses to prevent the bylaw from proceeding. Reserve established for economic development The board agreed to create a reserve fund for $25,000 worth of unused funds earmarked for economic development. Fifty thousand dollars had originally been set aside for this year’s economic development spending, but only $25,000 was spent. Airport discussion The regional district board agreed to a recommendation to maintain communications with the federal government regarding the Penticton airport. The recommendation was made acceptable to the board by the exclusion of a phrase that included “ownership and operation” of the airport. The board was sensitive to the fact that First Nations had concerns with the airport lands, noting it was a pending issue to local Indian bands. Joint council, steering committee appointments for Protocol agreement Joint Council and Steering Committee recommendations were made for the recently signed Protocol Agreement between the regional district and local First Nations bands at the October 3 meeting of the regional board. Chairman Pendergraft and Vice Chair Manfred Bauer, as well as a City of Penticton director will represent the joint committee, while CAO Bill Newell, Deputy Corporate Officer C. Malden and a third representative to be named later were named to the steering committee. Director’s motion The board approved a motion forwarded by Area “G” Director Angelique Woods proposing the regional district send a letter to the Province supporting the licensing of All Terrain Vehicles. Better communications requested Area “H” Director Brad Hope, noting difficulties the Regional District had obtaining information in the aftermath of the Coalmont tailings spill, requested the board forward a letter to the provincial government asking it consider implementing Emergency Response Management System protocols within all of its provincial ministries. The board approved the motion. Community Futures request funding Mary Ellen Heidt, executive director of Community Futures — Okanagan-Similkameen, led a delegation before the board reporting on success of the Economic Gardening program and making an $80,000 request for continued funding. Her report was received as information and will be reviewed as part of budget deliberations.

Yard waste collection for rural homes coming soon RDOS press release Homes in Rural Electoral Areas “B”, “C”, and “G” will be receiving seasonal yard waste collection during the week of October 28 to November 1. Communities receiving this collection include rural Oliver, rural Osoyoos, rural Keremeos, Cawston, Olalla and Hedley. Residents can place out an unlimited amount of properly packaged yard waste for pickup on their morning of their collection day. Yard waste means leaves, sticks, prunings, grass and branches under three inches (7.5 cm) diameter. Materials should be
placed in a reusable container, like a garbage can, or in kraft paper yard waste bags. Branches can be cut to three feet (1 m) lengths and bundled securely with string. Yard waste placed in plastic bags or containing other materials will not be collected. Large volumes of yard waste, agricultural waste or culled fruit can be brought to any local landfill for composting. No charges apply at any landfill for loads of yard waste under 500 kg (1,100 pounds). The final 2013 yard waste collection for all RDOS rural electoral area homes will be the last week of November.
Open burning permitted in the Similkameen Contributed The Kamloops Fire Centre rescinded open burning in the Kamloops Fire Centre’s jurisdictions, effective at noon on Tuesday, October 15, due to a decreased risk of wildfires. Burning of waste, slash, stubble or grass is now allowed in the South Okanagan and Lower Similkameen. Fireworks and burning barrels can also be lit in areas not subject to local
bylaws. This rescinding of the open fire prohibition applies to all BC Parks, Crown lands and private lands, but does not apply within the boundaries of local governments that have forest fire prevention bylaws and are serviced by fire departments. Anyone contemplating lighting an open fire should first check with civic authorities to see if any local burning restrictions are in effect.

Regional district opens up on safety audit
External safety audit released in its entirety at urging of public official By Joe Fries Black Press
Key documents, including a 58-point action plan meant to address shortcomings discovered during a local government’s safety audit, have finally been made public. The action plan was created by Regional District of OkanaganSimilkameen staff after learning in May the organization did not meet the requirements to renew a Certificate of Recognition that triggered $31,000 in savings on WorkSafeBC premiums over three years. The COR program is voluntary and goes beyond minimum safety regulations established by B.C. laws. RDOS administrators told elected officials about the audit results in August, and later released only copies of the audit report’s executive summary from which names of peripheral organizations, such as volunteer fire departments and recreation commissions, had been redacted. Newspapers were advised to file freedom of information requests for the full report. The executive summary cited the lack of a single safety management
system across all RDOS operations as the main reason for not renewing the certificate, and was the basis for articles in the Western News and the Keremeos Review. Tom Siddon, the director for Okanagan Falls-Kaleden, told colleagues at a committee meeting Thursday the articles prompted calls from members of peripheral organizations who complained they only learned of the audit results through the media. “The two headlines were: ‘RDOS fails safety audit,’ and secondly, ‘RDOS official blames voluntary groups for the shortcoming.’ I know that’s not what happened, but that’s the perception that a simple headline can produce,” Siddon said. The RDOS scored 55 per cent on the audit, but needed 80 per cent to achieve certification. Earlier this month, Siddon urged RDOS administrators to release the full report to set the record straight. The document and its accompanying action plan were finally released Thursday. The to-do list includes ensuring first-aid attendants write reports after treating workers, creating safe work procedures for all pieces of equipment, such as sweepers and mowers, and numerous suggestions relating to the functioning of safety committees. Penticton Mayor Garry Litke,

also an RDOS director, noted it’s “a very ambitious action plan,” but “it obviously can’t happen without resources.” Chief administrative officer Bill Newell said directors might need to consider hiring someone to help with implementation. “Everyone’s struggling for resources. To fulfill the requirement for record-keeping and statisticskeeping and meetings... is onerous,” he said. “And while we strive to do that, in some of our completely volunteer or independent parts of our operations, it’s not quite as high a priority or they don’t have quite the same capabilities of doing that.” Newell also explained that although the RDOS was told by the same auditor in 2010 that it needed to establish a comprehensive safety system, it decided to skip that recommendation. “We didn’t want to impose our rules on really volunteer fire departments and employees of recreation commissions that had other priorities, he said, before reiterating that the auditor placed blame with RDOS administrators, not the peripheral departments. “He’s saying, administratively we did not do our job imposing a single safety management system throughout the organization. We take that personally,” Newell said.
