Federal government urged to restrict jet boats, protect salmon on upper Pitt River


Several B.C. First Nations are calling on the federal government to restrict the use of jet boats on the upper Pitt River to protect salmon spawning grounds.The Lower Fraser Fisheries Alliance is in the process of applying to Transport Canada to limit the use of jet boats on the upper Pitt River, said Katzie First Nation Coun. Rick Bailey. The remote river, which feeds into the north side of Pitt Lake from its source in Garibaldi Provincial Park, has become a popular playground for jet boaters who race over the shallow water where five species of salmon lay their eggs.
