The number of registered evacuees in Prince George eclipsed 10,000 as of Monday.
Included in this number:
- 8,313 adults
- 1,900 children
- 1,152 in RV parking
- 5,541 in alternate accommodation, such as billeting
- 727 in group lodging

Two Northern Health buses departed from CNC and headed towards the South Cariboo region with some evacuees.
On board were a few dozen people that were allowed back to the Cariboo region since the City activated Emergency Social Services on July 8.
They were travelling to the District of 100 Mile House and nearby areas such as 108 Mile and Lac la Hache, which have recently had their Evacuation Orders scaled back to Evacuation Alerts.
