The Coulson Group has signed a contract with the province of B.C. for the use of Mars waterbomber, according to CEO Wayne Coulson.
"We have notified the province of our rates and we now have a contract in place and we are waiting for government to order the Mars up," said Coulson.
"The earliest we told them is most likely a Thursday start depending how many days they take to decide."
The Coulson waterbombers have not been contracted by the province since 2013.
