Plans are underway for the Province’s Columbia River Treaty Review team to return to the Columbia Basin in November 2012 to begin a second round of public consultations. The first round of consultations took place in May/June 2012 in seven communities: Jaffray, Creston, Nakusp, Castlegar, Valemount, Golden, and Revelstoke. The Treaty Review team is planning to return to these communities to provide new information and seek additional feedback from Basin Residents. One of the key objectives of the sessions will be to describe and begin to receive feedback on the impact of Treaty options on the interests Basin residents shared with the Treaty Review team during the first round of consultations. 

Further information on the November community sessions will be in next month’s newsletter. You can also check the Columbia River Treaty Review website under Upcoming Events for the most recent information on venues, dates and times: gov.bc.ca/columbiarivertreaty or follow us on Twitter @CRTreaty
