Barnston Island Flood Emergency Social Services Coordination
Provider: Metro Vancouver
Coordinates emergency social services for Barnston Island residents displaced by flooding.
In a flood response, Metro Vancouver coordinates any required Emergency Social Services response for displaced Barnston Island residents with the City of Surrey, which serves as host community for evacuees. This is emergency-event coordination, not routine social-service intake. The plan says Katzie First Nation will be invited to coordinate or integrate response on Barnston Island IR#3, and that emergency declarations do not apply to First Nations lands.
