May 19, 2022 UPDATE - On May 6th, 2022 BC Parks held a 1 hour engagement session to provide an overview of the draft Fire Management Plan for Lac du Bois Grasslands Protected Area. As a follow up, BC Parks is re-opening the survey to provide a second opportunity for public feedback on the draft Fire Management Plan. The survey will be open from May 19th - June 19th 2022 for a final engagement opportunity.

BC Parks is developing a Fire Management Plan for Lac du Bois Grasslands Protected Area. The purpose of the Fire Management Plan is to action the long-term strategies and to build upon the management directions in the Lac du Bois Grasslands Protected Area draft Management Plan: Protect, manage and restore protected area vegetation for a diversity of plant species and communities and for its contribution to ecosystem representation, wildlife habitat, biodiversity and aesthetics, and inherent value.

The objectives of the Fire Management Plan are to provide an ecosystem-based framework for fire management within the protected area, and recommendations to reduce negative effects of wildfire to the protected area’s values, as well as values adjacent to the protected area. BC Parks appreciates that there is a high level of local interest, due in part to the proximity of the protected area to the City of Kamloops, the visibility of fire on the landscape, and the involvement of numerous partner and stakeholder groups in the area.

BC Parks would like to engage with park users, stakeholders, volunteer groups, and partners on opportunities for collaboration. This will help our team determine the level of interest and identify ways we can work together to further develop and implement the draft Fire Management Plan.
