When wildfires threatened Lytton First Nation in 2021, Warren Brown was essential in protecting his community's water supply by staying behind-as others evacuated to safety-to ensure the water treatment plants remained up and running. He wanted to do everything he could to ensure his community had safe and clean drinking water to come home to. Warren's commitment to caring for his community's clean water supply continues to play a significant role in protecting their health and safety. Today, Warren Brown of Lytton First Nation was announced as the 2023 recipient of the National First Nations Water Leadership Award at the 14th annual BC and Yukon Territory Water and Wastewater Operational Excellence Conference held in Vancouver, BC.
