About Peace River Regional District
The area
The Peace River Regional District (PRRD) covers about 117,200 km² of land in northeastern British Columbia and had about 61,500 people in 2021. It is mostly high, prairie-like farmland cut by the Peace River, rising to Rocky Mountain foothills at Chetwynd. Fort St. John (about 21,500 people in 2021) and Dawson Creek (about 12,300) are the main centres. Chetwynd, Tumbler Ridge, Hudson's Hope, Taylor and Pouce Coupe each had under 2,500. Four electoral areas, B to E, take in over 40 rural communities.
History
This is Treaty 8 territory; the treaty dates from 1899. Doig River, Halfway River, Saulteau and West Moberly First Nations belong to the Treaty 8 Tribal Association, which serves the area. Dawson Creek grew as a grain town after the Northern Alberta Railways line reached it in 1931, then boomed when Alaska Highway construction began there in 1942.
Services and access
Fort St. John Hospital has 24-hour emergency, surgical and maternity care. Dawson Creek and District Hospital also has an emergency department; Northern Health posts any closures online. Dawson Creek sits where the Alaska and Hart highways meet, and Highway 29 joins Highway 97 at Chetwynd. North Peace Regional Airport near Fort St. John has scheduled Air Canada and WestJet flights to Vancouver, and WestJet to Calgary. Farming, forestry, oil and gas, mining, tourism and hydroelectric power carry the economy; BC Hydro's dams near Hudson's Hope supply about 30% of the power it generates.
Land and climate
Farms grow canola, wheat, barley and forage seed and raise beef cattle; river valley farms grow short-season vegetables. The province notes the soils erode easily and can be acidic. A household well needs no water licence, though the province encourages registering it. Only an authorized person may build a septic system, under Northern Health rules.
Before you buy
Rural zoning comes from five area zoning bylaws, a rural official community plan and fringe plans around Fort St. John, Dawson Creek and Chetwynd. PRRD building permits are mandatory only in set areas around Fort St. John, Taylor, Dawson Creek, Pouce Coupe and Chetwynd and at Moberly Lake and Swan Lake, (see the PRRD web map), and optional elsewhere. The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure approves rural subdivisions. Agricultural Land Reserve land is kept mainly for farming; non-farm uses and subdivision there need Agricultural Land Commission approval, with PRRD board support first. The Crown usually holds oil and gas rights under private land; a company needs a surface lease with the owner or a Surface Rights Board order, and the BC Energy Regulator's data centre shows activity nearby. The PRRD calls the region wildfire-prone and offers free FireSmart consultations; only some rural areas have fire protection.
