Description of the flag

The flag of the Regional Municipality of Northern Rockies, British Columbia, consists of the modified regional logo on a white background. The logo shows a three-top mountain (in blue), "NORTHERN (blue over orange)/ ROCKIES (green)/ Fort Nelson (blue)". The flag was adopted in 2009.

About the entity:
"The NRRM, incorporated on February 6th, 2009, is the first Regional Municipality in BC and officially combines the former entities of the Town of Fort Nelson and the Northern Rockies Regional District. The boundaries of the NRRM mimic that of the previous Regional District, encompassing about 10% of province's landmass (85,808 km2 or 9500 square miles)."

From the same administration I also received a bicentennial flag of the former Town of Fort Nelson, now dissolved and part of NRRM. The flag consists of bicentennial seal-like circular logo on a white background. The logo has a scenic landscape - mountains, woods, river, oil tower and highway. Around "FORT NELSON B.C./1805.BICENTENNIAL.2005".

The Northern Rockies Regional Municipality replaced the Northern Rockies Regional District and is now a single-tier regional municipality on a rank of regional district, the only one in BC.
