Yard Waste Burn Permits Opening October 1st

We have had some pretty good rains to soak the ground to an acceptable depth and start recharging the aquifer.  Category 2 Yard Waste Fire Permits will be available on October 1st for the month. Apply at www.thetisislandfire.ca

The Ministry of Environment has updated its interactive map for determining if Thetis Islanders can vent Category 2 smoke on any given day.  You must check the smoke control Venting Index before igniting your burn pile to find out if the Venting conditions allow you to do so.  The map update now is coloured and says No, or Yes -1day or Yes -4 days so you can plan ahead.  The map data is changed daily at 07:30 a.m.  Thetis Island is in the Southern Vancouver Island Smoke Sensitivity Area.

Firewood Splitting

Good day fellow Thetis residents.

It must be hard to keep up with all of that firewood splitting that must get done before the snow! 

I would be happy to come around and split firewood and kindling for you to keep your homes warm. 

My hourly wage is $28. But luckily I work fast. 

Send me an email or a call anytime. I will check back again toward November.
