TOTAL FIRE BAN RULES

TOTAL FIRE BAN - NO FIRES

During a Total Fire Ban no fire may be lit in the open. Fire permits are suspended during a Total Fire Ban. This includes incinerators and barbecues which burn solid fuel, e.g. wood or charcoal.

 You may use a gas or electric barbeque, but only if:

• it is on a residential property within 20m of the house or dwelling

• if it is a picnic area and the appliance is approved by council, National Park or State Forest

• it is under the direct control of an adult

• the ground within 2m of the barbecue is cleared of all materials which could burn

• you have an immediate and continuous supply of water available.
