2023 Expression of Interest
The East Kootenay Invasive Species Council (EKISC) provides a role of coordinating the management of invasive species across the East Kootenay region. To accomplish this, EKISC contracts the work out to qualified and experienced pest management experts. Every year, EKISC advertises an Expression of Interest to identify the capacity and availability of known and new pesticide applicators.
