The Regional District of Kootenay Boundary has responded to criticism from two Big White groups about restricting service to the Big White Transfer Station.

That criticism was voiced in a press release issued Thursday (Feb.15) from the Big White Mountain Chamber of Commerce with supportive comments from the president of the Big White Community Development Association.

In its response, the RDKB says the Big White Transfer Station is currently operating as an unattended transfer station, which is open 24/7.
