The B.C. Wildfire Service (BCWS) said it planned to conduct small-scale ignitions along the perimeter of the Quilpituk Creek wildfire to establish control lines.
The ignitions are intended to reduce fuel near the fire perimeter and help prevent the wildfire from spreading.
The wildfire service said power had been restored to the area and crews were working to restore the Killiney Beach and Westshore Estates water systems. Residents were advised that a boil-water notice would likely be in effect once it was safe to return home.
Crews were assessing the area for remaining hazards, supporting public safety and assisting with re-entry planning.
