Peachland wildfire risk project to be the focus of a WSABC conference presentation JOANNE LAYH A wildfire risk reduction project that happened in Peachland will be the focus of a Forest Enhancement Society of B.C. (FESBC) presentation at the Water Supply Association of B.C.’s (WSABC) annual conference in Penticton this weekend.

The project took place in a forested area along the Munro Forest Service Road.

It was initiated in 2018 and was completed in the spring of 2019.

The project was funded in partnership through a $132,000 Forest Enhancement Society of B.C. grant that was provided to the Okanagan Nation Alliance.

“My sense is that if we can generate watersheds that are more resilient to wildfires, then the catastrophic impacts of wildfires are not only minimized but the impacts of those are much reduced in the watershed alone for things like drinking water, irrigation water, soil erosion impacts,” said Dave Conly,

FESBC operations manager, in an interview with the View. “There are all sorts of things that happen when you have a hard high fire intensity that goes through an area like a watershed and the downstream impacts are very tangible, as you would imagine. We’ve seen that in various areas of the province in 2017 and again 2018, very catastrophic fires. This project was designed to try to reduce the risk to the area intensively around Peachland itself, protecting homes and civilians in the community as well as trying to create a more resilient ecosystem

that is more sustainable in wildfire scenarios.”

The project was a collaboration between local First Nations Penticton Indian Band and Okanagan Nation Alliance, Gorman Bros Ltd., the Provincial government, and FESBC to develop solutions to benefit and protect citizens, wildlife habitat, ecosystem functioning, and cultural values of the land.

“A couple months ago our Peachland Healthy Watersheds Committee members, (of which I Chair), had the opportunity to visit the site and were very impressed with the work that has been done up there. Any work in the forest that can help reduce wildfire risk, provide a fire break (as in this case between Peachland and Summerland), while leaving ample trees in place, and habitat for the animals that live there, is a very positive step in the right direction of forest and wildfire risk management,” Mayor Cindy Fortin said. “It was a great collaborative project, and when different groups come

together with the same objective in mind, the results are often outstanding, as in this case.”

The project successfully married timber harvesting with cultural-ecological restoration at a landscape level, according to a FESBC press release.

Conly said overall, the number of trees was reduced from 350 trees per hectare to 75, 2,400 cubic metres of pulp fibre was recovered, and 7,000 cubic metres of merchantable timber was harvested.

“The effort will help restore the forest ecosystem functions associated with low intensity stand maintaining fire regime, and contribute to a fuel break to protect Summerland, Peachland, and rural development from wildfire risk,” said Conly.

Bob Hrasko, administrator for the Black Mountain Irrigation District and WSABC chairman, invited the project partners to present at their conference after hearing about the success of this collaborative project.

“When good stuff like this happens, we want to make sure the membership knows about it,” said Hrasko. “The linkage between water supply and water quality to the land is very important and beneficial to the water utilities. Reducing wildfire risk through controlled burns and better management is better for overall water quality than having an outof-control wildfire.”

Hrasko said there are a lot more partnerships being formed to tackle tough issues than there used to be. “It’s good to see so many partnerships. The issues are more complex than ever.”

The WSABC is an organization of water utilities that looks after the water supply interests of 55 water utilities in the southern interior of B.C., including Peachland. The organization’s annual conference will take place in Penticton Nov. 7 - 8. Conference attendees will include WSABC members, consultants, related utility manufacturers, and tradespeople.

Peachland council hears progress report on watershed concerns JOANNE LAYH Much work has been done to improve Peachland’s watersheds, but there is still more to do.

That’s what Peachland council heard at their last committee meeting, when director of operations Joe Mitchell provided an update on Peachland’s drinking water source protection.

Mitchell referred council to the Watershed Assessment Report for Drinking Water Source Protection, which was prepared by Golder Associates back in May 2010, the result of a comprehensive drinking water source to tap assessment required by Interior Health Authority.

The report focused on hazards and risks to water quality and quantity in the Peachland Creek and Trepanier Creek watersheds and identified 19 recommended actions and suggested timeframes for completion.

In his report to Peachland council, Mitchell said that of the 19 recommendations, 11 have been completed or are ongoing, five have been initiated and three have yet to be initiated.

“Very similar to our Water Master Plan, this report and its recommendations provide a framework for identifying projects for budget priorities, in order to continually work towards reducing risks and hazards in the district’s watersheds,” Mitchell said. “We haven’t made a lot of headway on some of them, but we are still working through trying to complete as many as we can in the next little while.”

Mitchell said that while the report is almost 10 years old, the findings remain relevant and the municipality will continue to address the recommendations as budget and time permit. One of the primary recommendations of the report was that a sediment source assessment be conducted on Peachland Creek. That assessment was completed back in 2015 by municipal staff in conjunction with Urban Systems and watershed experts.

Mitchell said the sediment source assessment involved a boots on the ground review of Peachland Creek that resulted in some unexpected discoveries, such as vehicles in

the watershed that had to be removed.

“We actually walked the entirety of Peachland Creek right from the intake up to the dam as well as over to Glen Lake,” Mitchell said.

The sediment source assessment itself brought four recommendations, which included reducing high surface erosion sites along Munro Forest Service Road, keeping cattle away from the intake site, removing a beaver dam and den and installing drinking water signage.

Mitchell said the Munro Forest Service Road is immediately upstream to the intake and after addressing the issues with erosion they saw a considerable reduction in turbidity after rainfalls.

“We are actually moving forward as we have the opportunity to do so to clean up, if I can use that term, the issues around our drinking water source,” Coun. Terry Condon said.

“It seems to be that the nub of the problem really is our inability to actually manage what happens in our watershed, which is a concern that is shared by many other communities. So it seems to me that one of the best investments of time is to energize that process with other municipalities to see and continue to lobby for more authority for us to be able to actually make decisions that affect forestry and other issues that are impacting our watershed. So to me that’s where the biggest percentage gain could be made,” Coun. Keith Fielding said.

Mayor Cindy Fortin said she believes Peachland needs to do a comprehensive watershed protection plan in the not too distant future.

“It’s wonderful how much has been done and a lot of the recommendations that have been completed or initiated,” Mayor Fortin said. “I agree that the water treatment plant is a huge priority project right now and it is going to continue to require an enormous amount of staff time overseeing the construction of the plant.”

Construction of Peachland’s water treatment plant is expected to be completed in spring 2021.

Lest we forget JOANNE LAYH Last weekend I was leaving a grocery store where there were some people positioned outside to accept donations to the Poppy Fund, as you find at many busy retail stores in the weeks leading up to Remembrance Day. “Mommy, I want a poppy,” I heard a little girl say.

“You already have some poppy stickers. Besides, I don’t have a poppy, so you don’t need one either,” I heard an adult voice answer.

Of course, the woman was hauling grocery bags through a busy parking lot, so maybe this wasn’t the right moment for her. But to describe this interaction as a missed educational opportunity would be an extreme understatement.

Poppies are always free, but even if the mother didn’t want to take one without making a donation to the Poppy Fund, at the very least she could have used the opportunity to explain the significance of the poppy to her daughter.

This would have been a great moment to say that we wear a poppy to remember the sacrifice of brave soldiers, many just boys, who fought and died on foreign soil far from home and family so we could live in freedom today.

Instead, the daughter likely thinks she’s missing out on wearing an accessory everyone else seems to have.

What a shame.

While we are lucky to be living in peaceful times, elsewhere around the world many other people are not so fortunate and we should be proud of the Canadians who in many missions abroad have sacrificed themselves for others.

We should also be forever grateful to the men and women who have risked or given their lives for our freedom.

The last world war ended 74 years ago and there are still many Canadians alive today who lived through those times. But for many young people, those times must be unimaginable because thanks to their sacrifice, we enjoy a level of peace and prosperity that is unprecedented in modern history.

Hopefully none of us will ever have to experience food rationing or wearing a gas mask or any of the horrible realities of living in wartime.

And hopefully we never see a generation that forgets.

Local golfer beats out astronomical odds with two holes in one What are the odds?

Peachland’s Tom Nickerson not only had a hole in one, he had a second one eight days later, both at his home course the Summerland Golf and Country Club. His first was on the fourteenth hole par three playing 176 yards. His second was on the fourth hole a par three playing 118 yards.

Both holes in one were witnessed by the same three fellow players. The odds of a professional golfer getting a hole in one are 2500-1. The odds of an amateur golfer getting a hole in one are 12,500-1.

What are the odds of getting two within eight days?

Jeff Clarke, Peachland

Resident says Highway 97 bypass is needed but cost will deter govt When I read that existing route is all that’s needed, I can’t help to think that it is senior citizen making comments. They don’t drive very much and soon will be losing their licences, just like a lady who wrote in to say what’s another $500 or so for carbon tax. So yes, the existing Highway 97 needs improvement, but to have a major highway run through our town is ridiculous.

If you said that a bypass is needed from the Osoyoos border to Sicamous with connectors to the towns and Kelowna/Vernon you would be correct. However, if you said that it won’t happen because of provincial and federal debt you would also be correct.

That does not take away the fact a bypass is needed and sorry who is in the way.

Mike Polvere, Peachland

A true high level bypass is unachievable In response to Craig Bitcon’s letter, my information was attained from a presenter, and I only related what I was told.

Maybe not everyone is on the same page when conducting an open house, and that is the danger of this type of forum. They invariably lead to misinformation. That is why I have lobbied for meetings of importance to the community to be town hall or public hearing if government officials are involved.

Questions in those forums are addressed to, and answered directly by the chairperson in charge, and minutes of the meetings are produced for public viewing.

In response to Mr. Bit-

con’s reference to the government changing its mind, and abandoning a bridge to replace the George Massey tunnel in favour of pursuing the more expensive option of a new tunnel, let me just say this: Money has a great deal to do with the government’s lack of support for an upper highway bypass, but it is not the only consideration.

The biggest factors, that cannot be overcome, are the insurmountable environmental and Indigenous issues as stated

by Claire Trevena.

I am an optimist by nature but considering the overwhelming obstacles in the way of an upper level bypass, it’s time to

face reality. I certainly do not want to see an alternate route, within spitting distance of the existing highway, further dividing our community.

After re-reading Mr. Bitcon’s letter, he confirms what I heard at the open house.

The government’s traffic model (unfortunately called a government survey by the local presenter) indicated that only 10 per cent of the daily traffic is forecast to divert from the existing highway to the lower elevation route,

a route the mayor, and most of the community objects to.

However, if you adjust the information input, then a higher percentage can be achieved.

I believe Mr. Bitcon realizes a true high level bypass is unachievable, and seems to be advocating for a lower elevation route, ridiculously spending millions of taxpayer dollars, further dissecting the community, and all for a minor traffic benefit.

We sponsor educational and social events and involve our members in all of these. Our club is also a member of the Canadian Owners and Pilots Association, better known as COPA Flight 50.

Each year some club members volunteer their time and their airplanes to do a flyover at Penticton, Peachland and Summerland cenotaphs on Remembrance Day as close to the eleventh hour as possible. The aircraft are mostly single or twin engine personally owned planes and will fly over at about 2,500 to 3,000 feet (1,500 to 2,000 feet above the ground).

Flight A will cross over the Penticton Trade and Convention Centre at about 10:30 a.m., then proceed north, crossing the lake to join the east shore of Okanagan Lake at Squally Point.

They will gradually turn to the right to follow the shoreline (not crossing into Kelowna Control Zone), then make a wide left turn abeam Westbank to proceed south over Peachland at approximately 10:45 a.m. They will follow the west shore of Okanagan Lake to Summerland at 11:05 a.m, flying over the cenotaph and around the west side of Giant Head before proceeding to Penticton.

Not feeling it for Canada Post community mailbox relocation plan I have received a notification from Canada Post that my community mailbox is to be permanently moved to accommodate the construction of a new home at 5109 Clarence Road.

At present, the community mailbox is located on the east side of the road, just north of the intersection of Shaw and Clarence.

This community mailbox is easily accessible to the approximate 35 homes on Clarence and Lornell, that receive their mail there. You can stop and pick up your mail on your way home.

The new location, which is on the west side of the road, just south of the intersection of Shaw and Clarence, will be awkward to stop at for us.

This will require a left hand turn from Shaw onto Clarence to pick up your mail and then a u-turn to continue to your residence or you will need to turn around in

someone’s driveway. Alternatively, you need to travel south on Clarence to Sutherland and then loop back on it to return the north end intersection of Clarence and Lornell.

Not only would this be inconvenient for those north of Shaw, but it would also be dangerous. Shaw, which “T”s Clarence is a very busy road as many vehicles use It as an access from Highway 97 to Trepanier.

Why does the “convenience” to a building contractor, who will only be there a couple of months, permanently inconvenience the residential users of the community mailbox?

I would like to suggest that you alter your plans to a temporary move of the community mailbox until the contractor is finished and then restore it to the previous location.

Liberal Government will have advantage in advancing legislation

MP DAN ALBAS In last week’s MP report I discussed the voting outcome of the recent 43rd Canadian federal election that resulted in a minority government.

ADCANADA MEDIA INC R0011756806 PV01

What exactly does a minority government mean and how might that work to serve Canadians?

The Liberals hold 157 seats, the Conservatives 121, the Bloc with 32, and the NDP 24. There is one independent MP and the Green Party now has three.

The reason the seat count is critical is due to the fact that it illustrates that the Liberal Government requires only the support of one major party to either pass a budget, or have legislation approved.

While the Government has three parties

they have the option of working with on a bill or budget, the same is not true for the opposition.

For the opposition to defeat a Liberal Government bill, no two parties’ combined carry enough votes to effectively block the legislation.

The only way the opposition could prevent a Government bill from going forward would be if all three parties agree to work together to block it.

For these reasons the Liberal Government will have the advantage and a fair bit of flexibility in advancing legislation, provided they work with

at least one of the three major parties.

From my own perspective, we do have some challenges with each party having more representation in certain regions of Canada than others.

Last week I asked about your concerns regarding Canadian unity and received possibly the most responses to any question I have asked in my weekly reports.

There is no question many Canadians are deeply concerned including many within our region.

What happens next?

The prime minister has indicated he will name his new cabinet on November 20.

I expect shortly after that, the Leader of the Official Opposition will present his own shadow cabinet of critics to speak on particular files and hold the government to account.

Parliament is likely to resume sitting in December with an expected

Throne Speech that will outline the priorities of the minority Liberal government.

This leads to my question for this week: What are the priorities you would like to see addressed by this 43rd Canadian Parliament?

Volunteering as an older adult: How to find the right fit for your new lifestyle Many parents feel involving their children in volunteering at an early age can have a profound, long-lasting impact on their kids. But youngsters are not the only ones who can reap great rewards from volunteering, as studies show that men and women at, beyond or approaching retirement age also benefit greatly from volunteer work.

Research from the Corporation for National and Community Service found that more than 20 million older adults contributed in excess of three billion hours of community service time each year from 2011 to 2013. The reasons why older adults volunteer are varied, but in its 2014 survey the AARP’s Experience Corps found that 97 per cent of its volunteers indicated that their volunteer work with the organization gave them a sense of purpose.

Older adults who want to volunteer but have little or no history with volunteering might not know where to begin with regard to finding the right opportunity. The right fit can make all the difference for volunteers and the people they help, and the following tips might help older adults as they look for an opportunity that best utilizes their skills and experience.

• Know your schedule. Older adults who are still working but want to volunteer may have a firm grasp on their schedules, but even retirees should not overestimate how much time they have to volunteer. Before you begin to look for an opportunity, write down your commitments and daily schedule, using this list to determine how much free time you have to volunteer.

Some opportunities require greater time commitments than others, so make sure you know just how much time you can devote to an opportunity before signing up.

• Give due consideration to your experience. Older adults who have retired or are on the cusp of retirement have a lifetime of experience they can use to help others. Imparting wisdom learned in your professional life can provide a sense of purpose and even make you feel as though you are still actively involved in the industry where you built your professional reputation. But life experience can also prove invaluable in volunteering opportunities. Mentoring programs give volunteers the chance to help young people, and such opportunities can involve more than just offering professional advice.

• Don’t downplay the significance of certain opportunities. Volunteering opportunities come in many variations, and each is significant in its own right. Coaching a grandchild’s soccer team can have as significant an impact on the people you help as other volunteering opportunities. Volunteers offer their time because they have a passion to help others, and that help can be given in a myriad of ways.

• Leave time for the rest of your life. Volunteering is a selfless act, and volunteers are the backbone of many successful charitable organizations.

But older men and women should leave time for the rest of their lives as well. Retirement should be fulfilling but also include time for recreation, so don’t downplay how important hobbies are to you in an attempt to find more time to volunteer. No retiree wants to grow resentful of his or her volunteer work because it leaves little time for other pursuits, so do your best to balance your charitable endeavours with the other things in life that matter to you.

Finding the right volunteer opportunity can make all the difference for older men and women who want to give back to their communities.

The Significance of a Poppy JEAN SAUL

ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION #69 The blood red poppy of Flanders is the symbol of remembrance introduced to Canada in 1918.

The poppy honours the many hundreds of thousands of Canadian men and women who served or are still serving their country.

Each and every year on November 11, we as Canadians gather to remember. We wear a poppy to show our

support and to never forget the sacrifices that have been made.

At the same time, the Royal Canadian Legion launches an annual poppy campaign to raise awareness of Remembrance Day. The poppy is as symbolic today as it was when first launched after the First World War. The poppy is immortalized as an emblem of sacrifice and remembrance for the honouring of the thousands who laid down their lives for those ideals which we

as Canadians cherish. The poppy calls upon us to remember not only those who died, but also those left dependant and those who still suffer from honourable wounds and disabilities.

The poppy challenges us to serve in peace as well as conflicts, to help those who need our help and to protect those who need our protection, whether at home or on peacekeeping missions.

Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, lest we forget, lest we forget!

Highway 97 Task Force Society: where do we go from here?

IMAGES MOTI

MOTI ARE EXPECTED to return to the community this fall or winter with a final route selection. There has been no confirmation of further public consultation. Left: AR-c(5), one of MOTI’s proposed alternate routes, has been met with council and community disapproval as it would have a significant impact on the community and residents in the vicinity. Right: the four-laning in place option would signficantly impact the entire length of Highway 97 throughout Peachland and would have huge impact to certain areas, such as the Antlers Beach area, where this realignment would eliminate many homes.

GUS RICHARDSON

HIGHWAY 97 TASK FORCE SOCIETY The Highway 97 Task Force Society asks for membership opinion and input at the AGM. Since the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI) report was published in July 2019, much controversy has once again become the norm surrounding the Highway 97 bypass issue.

The board of the Highway 97 Task Force is determined that action taken by the society reflects the opinion and wishes of the majority of the membership.

At the AGM, the board of the Highway 97 Task Force Society will ask the membership for their input on direction for going forward.

There are currently about 870 members. Soliciting and consolidating opinion from the membership is a daunting task and the AGM is as good a time as any to ask the question: “Where do we go from here?”

Not a member? You can take out membership at the AGM on Nov 18. Your three-year membership is $10 (single), $15 (family) or $5 (renewal).

To maximize input from the membership, we invite all members who wish their voices to be heard to attend the AGM and to be prepared to express their thoughts, viewpoints and opinions. The task force board is listening and looks forward to an interactive (read: noisy) meeting.

Members may wish to review the MOTI report published in July and take another look at the maps. Go

ADCANADA MEDIA INC R0011756817 PV01

ADCANADA MEDIA INC R0011756814 PV01

to “Highway 97 Peachland Transportation Planning Study Phase 1 Final Report” and scroll down to “To read the report, please click here”. The maps are at the end of the report. You may also wish to review articles published in the View, including the column “From The Mayor’s Desk”.

Be prepared to contribute and to be part of Highway 97 Task Force decision making. You will meet three new board members and have the opportunity to thank members who are retiring from service. As of the meeting, there will be vacancies on the board.

Please make yourself known to a board member if you are interested. The task force is also in need of a member volunteer who is capable and willing to act as webmaster on www.hwy97taskforce.com. Again, please make yourself known if you are interested.

The annual general meeting will take place at the Peachland Community Centre on Monday, November 18 at 7 p.m.

This super adorable petite girl came into the shelter as a stray. We do not know much about her but we do know she is a sweet girl that has no problem being carried around. With slow introductions she seems fine with other cats. She is a bit of an escape artist and really wants to be outside. So she is looking for a safe home where she can have indoor/outdoor access, but we are hoping she will prefer inside once she is spayed. Ellis would be a great forever kitty and hopes her stay in the shelter will be quick!

Over 200 kids participate in International Bat Week activities

PHOTOS DARLENE HARTFORD

CHUTE LAKE ELEMENTARY students learn about different bat species.

HUDSON ROAD ELEMENTARY students in West Kelowna participated in BEEPS programming.

DARLENE HARTFORD

All of these species are contributors in producing bat dependent foods through pollination, spreading seeds or eating the bugs that hover over plants with white blossoms.

Animated masks portrayed the unique details of the international bats’ faces emphasizing facial bumps, grooves and small eyes making them ideal for lots of colour, glitter and glue.

This was a fun project for children of all ages leading up to Halloween.

BEEPS

International Bat Week opened with a community walk along the Bat House Interpretive Trail accompanied by biologist Ella Braden and bat house carpenter, Tony Sali, of Tony’s Woodshed.

Sali introduced a new product, the guano catcher. The guano catcher is a screened box that is mounted five feet below the opening of the bat house where bats enter and exit.

Guano can be collected and spread in gardens rather than dropping at the base of the bat box, which may be mounted on homes and trees where it is not desirable to have guano droppings.

A new French Cleat mounting system was also introduced for ease in lifting down the bat box for annual cleaning, once the bats have left for hibernation.

Kids enjoyed bat activities in the visitor centre following the walk. Bat works of art created throughout Bat Week are part of the 2019 Bat Mural and is available for viewing at the Bat Interpretive Centre in Peachland Historic School.

BEEPS met with more than 200 children during International Bat Week to talk about different bat species from around the world.

Children could choose to make a mask of either the flying fox from Australia, commonly known as the fruit bat, or the California leaf-nosed bat, the sword-nosed bat from Central and South America or the Dobson’s horseshoe from Asia.

Peachland Wellness Centre recognizes November is Fall Prevention Month SARA STEPHENS

PEACHLAND WELLNESS CENTRE

HALLOWEEN FUN! DURING the morning of October 31, students from Peachland Elementary

School, along with students from the StrongStart program, gathered in the gym for a costume show and dance. Each class had a turn coming into the center of the gym, while the rest of the school watched from the perimeter. Pictured from left to right are Kai L., Alysha B., and Deacon B.

Got Household Hazardous Waste?

(Look for explosive, flammable and poisonous symbols.)

For safe disposal year round take it to

November is fall prevention month, and many organizations that work with adults at risk of a fall are raising awareness this month. The Province of B.C. has shown that without fall prevention efforts, about a third of people aged 65 years and over typically fall once or more each year. Falls in the home can lead to injury and loss of mobility, and some people may never regain their pre-fall levels of mobility and independence.

The Peachland Wellness Centre cares about the older adults in our community and their ability to be independent and live at home safely.

Fall prevention is an important part of maintaining independence at home – but how do you know if you’re at risk of a fall?

Some factors that put older adults at risk of a fall include: • Low vision; • Taking medication that can cause dizziness or balance issues; • Incontinence (and needing to rush to the washroom); • Loss of feeling in feet; • Muscle weakness and reduced strength and endurance; • Improper use of walking aids (such as canes and walkers);

• Wearing shoes with thick soles or worn-down treads; and • Having a history of previous falls.

If you are an older adult who has some or all of these risk factors, discuss your concerns with your doctor. Your doctor can help you identify ways to reduce your risk of falling and help you find ways to do your daily activities safely. Some general strategies you can use to prevent falls in your home include: • Add handrails and seats to showers and tubs; • Place non-slip mats in some areas; • Remove rugs that may cause tripping; • Remove clutter and other obstacles; • Secure furniture that may tip over; • Remove items with sharp edges or glass tops; • Install an elevated toilet or toilet seat; and • Install ramps or lift assist devices for stairs.

So, this November, take a look around your home or the home of an older adult you care about, and see what you can do to make it safer and prevent falls.
