Despite recent rainfall, Hepburn Shire Council is anticipating a fire season which will approach quickly and is urging residents to prepare. The council’s Fire Prevention Officers will commence property inspections shortly in line with their legislative obligations. They are warning that notices may be issued to those properties with high fuel loads. The council is urging all property owners to reduce fuel on their property and to maintain this level throughout the fire season. A general guide and information for preparing for the fire danger period is available on the CFA website with more information about the council’s Fire Prevention Inspection program available on its own website or by contacting its Fire Prevention Officer. |
