🔥HAZARD REDUCTION NOTIFICATION🔥
Tomorrow the 30th of April the RFS will be conducting the final 6ha of the 13ha Hazard Reduction at Bolah Gap Rd, Quirindi.
As the prescribed burn will generate smoke, hot embers and heat, it is important that you consider the following:
• Keep doors and windows closed to prevent smoke entering homes;
• Keep outdoor furniture under cover to prevent ember burns;
• Retract pool covers to prevent ember damage;
• Remove washing from clotheslines;
• Ensure pets have a protected area;
• If you are driving a vehicle, slow down, keep windows up and turn headlights on;
• If you have asthma or a lung condition, reduce outdoor activities.
If smoke levels are high and if shortness of breath or coughing develops, take your reliever medicine or seek medical advice.
Should any further information be required, please contact the RFS Liverpool Range Office on (02) 6746 5800 between 9am and 5pm weekdays. You can also obtain additional information on prescribed burning and property preparedness by accessing the NSW Rural Fire Service website at www.rfs.nsw.gov.au.
If weather conditions become unfavourable, the Hazard Reduction burn will be postponed until conditions become suitable.
