Many of the important sustainability issues facing Fraser Basin residents, governments, community groups and businesses are of concern to specific regions of the Basin. Some of these regional issues include threats to property and navigation from waterborne debris in the Fraser Valley, maintaining a healthy estuary at the mouth of the River, developing a Sustainable Region Initiative in the GVRD, addressing deteriorating water quality in Shuswap Lake, developing a set of sustainability indicators for the City of Quesnel and resolving conflicts over water flows on the Nechako River.
To ensure that regional issues are addressed, the Fraser Basin Council (FBC) has established regional offices and local Board committees in five regions of the Basin:
Programs in the Region
- Greater Vancouver Sea to Sky Region.
- Fraser Valley Region.
- Thompson Region.
- Cariboo-Chilcotin Region.
