Today marks the official start of the bush fire season, with the Bush Fire Danger Period beginning in most NSW Local Government Areas.

If you’re planning on conducting a burn, you’ll require a fire permit from your local Fire Control Centre or brigade. Fire permits help ensure fire is used safely and reduces the danger to you, your property and the community.

Residents and land holders must know the rules when it comes to the use of fire. Along with having the required fire permits, you need to notify your local fire authority and neighbours of your intent to burn at least 24 hours in advance.

For more information on the Bush Fire Danger Period and requirements around safe burning, visit our website: www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/BFDP

A total fire ban has been declared today with temperatures set to reach 33°C. At 9:45 am Plumpton crews were called to an unsupervised bin fire which they promptly extinguished. Please report all live fire today to help keep the community safe.

Today, Plumpton members were diverted from another incident to a grass fire at Berkshire Park.

Working alongside neighbouring brigades, crews quickly contained the spread of the fire before extinguishing remaining hotspots and rendering the area safe.

As the Bush Fire Danger Period begins, this is a timely reminder that grass fires can be unpredictable and spread quickly. Take the time to prepare your property and know what you will do if fire threatens.

A great team effort by all crews involved.
