The 2018 Economic Outlook is highlighted by a significant number of public and p rivate sector investments in capital and infrastructure projects. The following outlines key investments in the Lower Columbia, as well as current investment opportunities. REGIONAL INVESTMENTS $174 M New Acid Plant at Teck Trail Operations. $700 K Recreation Facility Projects & Investments. $8.4 M New integrated Library and Museum in Trail. $1.9 M Planned Utilities Projects & Investments. $16.6 M New Emergency Department at Regional Hospital. $34 M Josie Hotel at Red Mountain The region is experiencing a period of significant growth that is anticipated to continue well into 2018 and beyond! The City of Trail recently completed $9M worth of upgrades to the airport to build a new terminal building with improved parking. Fruitvale scheduled $4.4M worth of infrastructure upgrades in 2017, as well as added an expansion to the seniors’ gym ($70K) and completed improvements to the RV Park ($80K). The City of Rossland saw infrastructure upgrades in the amount of $4.4M, as well as $1.5M worth of projects including a new skatepark, renewal of the museum and restoration of the Minors Hall. KC Recycling operates the largest lead-acid battery recycling plant in Western Canada and has recently entered into the BC EPRA electronic waste recycling program. Now processing about one quarter of BC’s program volume, KC hired approximately 20 more employees this year and invested in new methods to efficiently process e-waste. i4C Innovation Centre (an innovative Internet of Things company), in collaboration with MIDAS and the LCIC, has created 19 new jobs, relocated 8 new companies, and commercialized over $2M of new investment into our economy, all since opening their doors in May 2017! Along with growth comes confidence in the economy, which brings other investment. This is evident by the fact that investment inquires by businesses and professionals looking to relocate to the region have doubled in the last year! The area also saw significant investment from the municipalities with major infrastructure investments throughout the region. Our local business leaders also contributed substantially to the economy with the new Josie Hotel in Rossland, the demo and rebuild of the Crown Columbia Hotel and major investments into the Trail Memorial Centre, to name a few. The region is visibly prospering and we couldn’t be more excited! Waneta Expansion Lands: Situated in the industrial/rural area located on Highway 22A, approximately 4 km north of the US/Canada Waneta Border Crossing. Trail Industrial Airport Lands: Located 5 km south of Trail on the Waneta Highway, these COMMERCIAL affordable lands are currently zoned Industrial 2 in the RDKB Area A. INVESTMENT Rossland Midtown Transition Area: Located within the heart of downtown Rossland, Opportunities the properties are conveniently located within a five minute walk of most amenities. 5 COMMUNITIES OF THE LOWER COLUMBIA In 1942 Leon Simmons developed Woods Flats, an area of about 220 acres situated above the Columbia River east of Trail. The name Montrose was chosen after a popular place in Scotland. The land was surveyed into lots and shortly thereafter the Montrose Improvement Association was formed. The Montrose Improvement Association developed into a Council with a MONTROSE Chairman and four Commissioners. The Montrose Recreation Commission was formed soon after and continues today as it serves its 1,000 residents. The City of Trail was settled in the 1890's in support of the developing gold/copper mines in Rossland. In 1895 a small smelter called the BC Smelting and Refining Company was constructed at Trail Creek to refine the ores from the Rossland mines. Over the years, the small smelter grew TRAIL into one of the world's largest metallurgical complexes, as well as one of the region's largest employers. The City of Trail, also known as “the Silver City”, is nestled along the mighty Columbia River and is home to over 7,700 residents. Trail also boasts a vibrant amateur sports community with a long history of excellence that earned it BC's Sports Town in the 1990's. Fruitvale was originally

The project also updated the Natural Resources Canada website and map of fatal avalanche incidents. Avalanches have been responsible for at least 702 fatalities in Canada since the earliest recorded incident in 1782. Sixty-one percent of these fatalities occurred in British Columbia, with 13% in Alberta, 11% in Quebec and 10% in Newfoundland and Labrador. The remainder occurred in Ontario, Nova Scotia and the Yukon, Northwest and Nunavut Territories. Fifty-three percent of the fatalities were people engaged in recreational activities, while 18% were people in or near buildings, 16% were travelling or working on transportation corridors and 8% were working in resource industries.
