Nearly a quarter of B.C.’s 34 water basins at highest drought levels
Only two of B.C.’s 34 water basins are at the province’s lowest drought classifications, while nearly a quarter are at severe levels, according to the latest data from the provincial government.
Eight of B.C.’s 34 water basins are at Level 5 drought conditions – the most severe level – meaning that adverse impacts to socio-economic or ecosystem values are almost certain. That’s double from last week when four were at the highest level.Twenty-two water basins have remained at drought Level 4 or higher, but now 34 are at Level 3 or higher. Only the northwest is seeing the lowest drought classifications where impacts are rare or unlikely.
