Bush fire prevention by the Brigade takes the form of both Hazard reductions
and Community Information Events.
As part of Hazard Reductions the Brigade carries out Prescribed Burning of
prepared sections of land deemed to be hazardous, or where previous fires have
passed through. As well as assisting residents who have a hazard reduction
certificate with their Hazard reductions. We also cut fire trails and perform
non-burning hazard reductions
Community Information Events assist with bush fire prevention as it heightens
community awareness of the danger of fire and how to prevent it and be protected
against it.
