The Resort Municipality of Whistler (RMOW) is inviting qualified Proponents to provide proposals to act as the RMOW’s wildfire program consultant. The RMOW has been conducting wildfire fuel thinning projects on Crown and municipal lands since 2004 to reduce the risk of wildfire to our community. The primary goal of fuel thinning is to reduce forest fuel loads within the wildland-urban interface and in landscape fuel breaks to reduce the ability of fire to spread from the forest into the community and vice versa, and to make wildfires easier to fight.
The RMOW intends to award a three-year contract dependent on annual budget approval and reserves the right to adjust the scope of work and length of contract at any time dependent on receiving annual budget approval.
