Conservation Fund
Apply to the Regional District of Central Kootenay Local Conservation Fund (RDCK LCF; previously called the Kootenay Lake LCF) to support your conservation initiative the Kootenay Lake area and Slocan Valley. The fund provides financial support for projects that work to conserve natural values, specifically water, wildlife and habitat in these areas.
Kootenay Conservation Program, or KCP, works in partnership with the RDCK to deliver this Fund which is a local government, tax-based service in Electoral Areas A, D, E, F, and H of the RDCK and projects must occur within these areas. Non-profit societies, Indigenous Nations, and local governments can apply to this fund and individuals can also apply by partnering with these groups.
Applications are due at the end of October each year and application forms and relevant information can be found the KCP website.
