The City of Grand Forks has ordered the immediate evacuation of 34 properties
Not all areas, however, could be protected, Baker said.
In the nearby Regional District of Central Kootenay, properties in the community of Vallican remain under a mix of evacuation orders and alerts. The River Forecast Centre has also added new flood watches further north, with the Upper Fraser River and “tributaries upstream of Prince George” now under flood watch.
“We will just leave them up for as long as necessary,” Baker said of the sandbags and other flood prevention measures put in place. “We are just going to leave the work stuff that we’ve done, continue to support them where we can, and watch the rivers.”
