  "summary": "Three landslides in Summerland’s Garnet Valley have raised concerns about the ongoing risks posed by slopes burned in this summer’s Bald Range wildfire. The incidents, triggered by heavy rain, spilled debris onto property belonging to the Campbell family, highlighting the danger that did not end when the wildfire was contained. The Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen is monitoring potential impacts and providing sand and sandbags to affected residents, while geotechnical assessments are underway. The B.C. Ministry of Forests has released a report indicating elevated hazards following this summer’s wildfire season, with risks varying depending on terrain and Highway 97 identified as a concern.",
