The Prince George Air Improvement Roundtable (PGAIR) wood stove program is going to be taken to a new level this fall.
A $40,000 grant from the Ministry of Environment was confirmed this week to pay for two pilot projects promoting clean wood-burning education.
One program will promote the use of dry, seasoned wood and encourage proper wood storage through the provision of wood storage boxes.
The other will provide in-house training to residents who recently installed certified wood stoves on how to start a fire and operate their new stoves to effectively reduce smoke.
