πŸ”₯ BUSH FIRE DANGER PERIOD STARTS TODAY πŸš’

The Bush Fire Danger Period is now in place across the Snowy Monaro LGA and will continue until 31 March 2027.

From today, Fire Permits are required for fires in the open, with limited exemptions such as certain cooking and small recreational fires.

πŸ“ž Need a permit?
Our Captain and Permit Officer, Daniel Perrin, can be contacted on 0433 046 202.

Before lighting up:
πŸ”₯ Make sure your permit is in place
πŸ“£ Notify the NSW RFS and adjoining neighbours at least 24 hours before burning
🌦️ Check the weather and Fire Danger Rating
πŸ“± Keep Hazards Near Me handy
πŸš’ Have firefighting equipment ready and supervise your fire at all times

With dry conditions around the district, everyone can also help reduce the chance of an accidental ignition:
βš™οΈ Avoid welding, grinding, mowing or slashing during hotter, windier conditions
πŸš— Take care driving through dry grass
🌿 Keep dry grass and debris from building up around vehicles, mowers and machinery
πŸ’§ Make sure cooking and recreational fires are completely extinguished before leaving them

If a fire gets out of control, call Triple Zero (000) immediately.

Prepare early. Stay informed. Use fire safely. πŸ”₯πŸš’

πŸ”₯ ONE EMBER CAN END IT.

Leaves in gutters, long grass and overgrown gardens can give embers somewhere to catch.

Take five minutes today to have a look around your place and knock over one small job. πŸ‚βœ‚οΈπŸ‘

A little preparation now can make a big difference later.

Think about:

πŸ“ What you’ll do if you need to leave early

A little planning now can make a big difference when things get busy.
