The Burns Lake Airport (Baker Airport) is operated by the Lakes District Airport Society. Its primary source of funding is from contributions by the RDBN through taxation of properties in the Village of Burns Lake, Electoral Area "B" (Burns Lake Rural) and Electoral Area "E" (Francois/Ootsa Lake Rural).

The Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako also assists with funding for the Smithers Para-transit system and the Telkwa Crosswalk, which is a pedestrian bridge over Highway 16 in Telkwa. These services are funded through taxation of properties in Electoral Area "A" (Smithers Rural).

The Regional District of Bulkley-Nechako was incorporated February 1, 1966 under the Municipal Act (now Local Government Act) of British Columbia. It covers an immense area (roughly 77,000 square km), but has a relatively small population (estimated at 40,856 in 2001). For maps or a table of population, please go to our Maps and Census pages. The Regional District contains 8 incorporated municipalities: the Town of Smithers, the Districts of Fort. St. James, Houston and Vanderhoof, and the Villages of Burns Lake, Fraser Lake, Granisle and Telkwa, each of which have a seat on the Regional District Board. The Rural Area is then divided into seven Electoral Areas, each directly electing a Regional District Director.??
