Regional Emergency Management
Central Peace Emergency Management
We have a partnership for emergency management called the Central Peace Regional Emergency Management (CPREM) with the rest of the Central Peace municipalities :
- Birch Hills County
- The M.D. of Spirit River
- The Town of Spirit River
- Village of Rycroft
This partnership ensures that the Central Peace municipalities act as one organization during a major emergency. By combining our resources, it becomes easier to reduce the harm done by disasters like fires or floods.
