报道要点
卑诗林业厅初步报告指出,Pear Lake山火受灾地部分区域的滑坡、洪水及泥石流风险高,道路、铁路与物业尤其需要关注。该火灾今年烧过Clinton周边逾1,600平方公里,毁坏超过一百处建筑。
背景与影响
Thompson Nicola区域局表示,火灾后头两年风险较高,降雨及春季融雪会加剧隐患,重点是溪河床附近、陡坡底部及上方严重烧毁地形的住户。烧毁后的排水系统与土壤吸水能力改变,可能使雨水更快沿地表流动。
仍待确认
当地牧场业者说,上月雨后灰烬杂物堵塞溪流,曾造成道路约一天无法通行,附近亦出现滑坡,其后已清理。省府更详细风险报告预计12月完成;现阶段属于初步评估,不代表每处物业已被判定须撤离。
