Castlegar storm clean-up continues

City crews in Castlegar are still cleaning up from the powerful storm that struck our region last week.

Director of Public works and Transportation Chris Barlow says it will likely take another week for bigger projects and possibly a week after that to remove minor debris across the community.

Barlow says the City incurred a number of costs due to the damage from the storm and they will look at applying to the Provincial Emergency Preparedness program for reimbursement.

It took 52 hours for power to be fully restored in Castlegar from the time the storm hit.
