Hi all. Be advised that we in the Shoalhaven LGA have started our bush fire danger period. Starting September 1st you will require a permit to burn.
Now is also a great time for you and your family to review your Bush Fire Survival Plan.

Today, 27 Local Government Areas (LGA) commence their Bush Fire Danger Period, with several areas beginning a month earlier than normal due to the prevailing dry conditions.

Additionally, two LGA's will commence their Bush Fire Danger Period on 14 September, which is two weeks earlier than normal.

Residents and land holders should ensure they understand the rules around the use of fire. Along with required fire permits, you must also notify your local fire authority and neighbours of your intent to burn 24 hours in advance.

Know the risks for your area, have a bush fire survival plan and discuss what you and your family will do if threatened by fire. For more information, visit the website: www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/BFDP

Very disappointing to see.

UNAUTHORISED ENTRY TO OUR FIRE STATION

At 1129am this morning a male wearing a fluro orange adidas shirt with white stripes on the shoulders, a gold chain necklace, black track pants, white adidas runners with orange stripes (adidas Adizero SL2 running shoes) a bracelet on his right wrist and watch on the left entered our fire station via the rear door and left 8 minutes later carrying an item of equipment.

Yes we have very clear footage and sound and yes we’ll make a police report - however we’ll give you the opportunity to return the item to our back door tomorrow.

We’re sure you made an error of judgement taking from an emergency service, and a volunteer one to boot!

Please share our post in the hope that this person gains a conscience.

Hi Community, we are now in Non Bushfire Danger period which means you no longer require a permit for burning garden waste from your properties, there are however a few steps you need to do before lighting up.
Ensure you are only burning garden waste, no building materials, tyres, mattresses, treated timber etc.
Notify all of your adjoining neighbours and give them at least 24 hrs. notice of your intended burn.
Register your burn online with the NSW RFS by completing this link https://nswrfsprod.service-now.com/guardian_csp?id=guardian_cat_item&sys_id=9e19819bc361f1d04a9cdc31150131ad
Ensure you have plenty of water nearby to extinguish if needed.
Don't leave the fire unattended at any time.

Also its good idea to check the weather a few days ahead and if we are due for hotter or windy days, ensure your fires are fully out.

If you are unsure of any of the requirements please go to www.rfs.nsw.gov.au or reach out to us here on our page or email [email protected] and we will be able to advise.
