The British Columbia Provincial Emergency Program, under the Ministry of the Attorney General, coordinates volunteer ground and inland water search and rescue throughout the province. Local police, including the RCMP, are the main organizations responsible for responding to requests for ground and inland water SAR, with volunteer groups providing support for their local detachment. Most volunteer organizations described in this chapter are registered with B.C. PEP.
