Reference Number: BCER OSRF PMP 2024-2029

The BC Energy Regulator (BCER) is developing a Pest Management Plan (PMP) with the purpose of controlling noxious and other unwanted vegetation on BCER Orphan sites using the principles of integrated pest management, including cultural, mechanical, and chemical.

This five-year (2024-2029) plan will cover all BCER Orphan sites within the Northern Rockies Regional Municipality and Peace River Regional District. These sites can be viewed on our Orphans Site map.

Equipment to be used under this management plan includes mowers, tillage equipment, backpack, wand, wick, and boom and/or boomless nozzle spraying equipment. All applications will be ground-based.
