We are currently on scene at a suspected escaped pile burn in the Mt Faulk Rd area which we discovered by pure chance during a maintenance drive. The fire has been contained and we are awaiting further resources to extinguish it.
A timely reminder to always attend to any burns on your property. Piles may also reignite days later especially with the current wind strength.
Thank you to Cooranbong Rural Fire Brigade for their timely assistance

The fire season ended on MAR 31 - that means fire permits from your local brigade are no longer required. However, you must still notify the RFS and your immediate neighbours as well as complying with the LMCC Control of Open Burning Policy.

Regular training is an integral part of staying on top of our skills, teamwork and knowledge. Our active members meet twice a month to hone those skills, learn from each other and discuss safety procedures so we are ready for any emergency locally or beyond if called upon.

Multiple agencies descended onto the Watagans late yesterday evening for a protracted search and rescue mission. The missing person and his dogs were finally located at around 3am in extremely challenging terrain. Due to morning fog, the Westpac Rescue helicopter could not be deployed to winch the patient out of the steep ledge he fell from. The Police Rescue Squad together with the VRA are at this time still making their way on foot to the location for a vertical rescue with special equipment.

Embers are small, silent and
can destroy homes up to 20km from the
fire front. But it’s easy to prepare. Clear
your gutters, trim your garden and know
your fire plan. Join your community to take
action before the embers take everything at
