FBC Board of Directors

Fraser Basin Council Board of Directors – A Unique Partnership

The FBC Board of Directors is a unique partnership of people who have come together to ensure that the decisions about how we live, work and play in the Fraser River Basin will protect the social, economic, and environmental sustainability of the entire Basin for generations.

Of the 38 directors, 22 are appointed by the four orders of government: three by the federal government, three by the provincial government, one by each of the eight regional districts in the Basin, and one by each of the Basin's eight First Nations language groups. The remaining Directors are non-governmental representatives appointed by the Council: two representatives from each of the Basin's five geographic regions and representing diverse sectors, three Basin-wide directors reflecting the three dimensions of sustainability (economic, social and environmental), a youth representative, a finance sector representative, and an impartial Chair.

The FBC Board of Directors work collaboratively and make decisions by consensus.
