Current projections indicate that a portion of the Peavine Creek Wildfire will cross the border at an approximate location west of Preston Lake on the BC border, between Township Road 740 and Township Road 744. While there are no private structures located in the immediate region, there are some oil and gas facilities in the area that may be impacted.
“We advise residents to not participate in recreational activities in the area,” says County Regional Fire Chief Trevor Grant. “Do not visit the area out of curiosity as any unnecessary traffic could affect first responders’ ability to conduct their work.”
