They have been present to inform people entering the area of the continued risks in the area following the initial landslide.

"A highly visible fault line on the riverbank south of Farwell Canyon Bridge is of immediate concern, and the area below it is not safe for public access. While the primary concern remains the area near Farwell Canyon bridge due to the high level of public access and the presence of Indigenous fishing sites, other areas along the Chilcotin River may also pose significant hazards to public safety."
Because of continued uncertainty about slope stability following the release of water on Aug. 5 from the landslide debris dam, the CRD said Crown lands along the riverbed and riverbanks of the Chilcotin River are subject to a .

This instrument remains in place until January 25, 2025, but may be extended by the provincial government.
