🔥 FIRE DANGER PERIOD UPDATE – WELLINGTON SHIRE 🔥

Great news for our community! The Fire Danger Period for Wellington Shire Council comes to an end at 1am on Tuesday, 7 April 2026.

While this means fire restrictions will be lifted, the CFA reminds all residents and landowners to stay vigilant — conditions can still change quickly on hot, dry, and windy days.

⚠️ PLANNING A BURN-OFF? YOU MUST STILL REGISTER IT!

Even after the Fire Danger Period ends, all burn-offs must be registered. If smoke or fire is reported, it will be cross-checked with the register to avoid unnecessary emergency callouts for CFA crews.

✅ Register your burn-off:
📞 Call: 1800 668 511
💻 Online: www.firepermits.vic.gov.au

Before you burn, remember to:
• Check local conditions and the forecast
• Notify your neighbours
• Have water and resources on hand at all times
• Never leave your burn-off unattended
• If your burn-off gets out of control, call 000 immediately

Stay safe! 💚
