Big River First Nation – Solid Waste Management Feasibility Study

The Band Council has undertaken a Solid Waste Management Feasibility Study for Big River First Nation (BRFN). The study will be looking at solid waste management on BRFN and provide an analysis of potential options for improved solid waste management into the future. Solid waste can pollute the land, the water, and the air. We believe that the community including youth and elders are keen observers, careful listeners, and that you care about protecting and preserving your lands for future generations.

We would like to know your thoughts on the current solid waste management system in place and invite you to provide any comments, current issues or concerns you may have. We hope you will share your knowledge with us. We have a few questions for you to think about and you might have other ideas that you would like to provide.

How frequent should these events be held?
And where?

Question Title
