Corya Creek Creek Rehabilitation post 2024 wildfire
Grant Amount: $50,000
Witset First Nation is leading this project to identify and mitigate the root causes of silt build-up from Corya Creek, the community’s main source of fresh, clean drinking water, which was exacerbated by the wildfire in 2024 and the resulting fire guard construction. This project aims to restore the natural habitat at the disturbed sites, ensure a sustainable and resilient water supply system, and reduce the financial burden of frequent filter replacements on the water treatment facility.
