evacuation_history

Historical B.C. evacuation orders and alerts that have ended (All Clear), newest first, from the province's Historical Orders and Alerts layer on DataBC: event type (fire, flood, landslide, other), issuing agency, municipality and regional district, and the dates the alert and order started and the all clear. Filter by year, type, agency, municipality or regional district code. NOT current: for orders and alerts in force now use wildfire_evacuations. Order names are never returned, and event names and counts are withheld for records covering fewer than 10 homes or names that look like an address.

Cost: 3 units of your allowance (see Rate limits).
