This is especially true for people in towns like Cann River. I don’t need to tell you we live with forest in all directions and it is possible these roads can become unpassable. We all need to plan ahead in regard this: it is essential that every family / individual has a fire plan. What will you do if you have to leave? What do you take? Where can you go? How do you keep in contact with what is going on throughout summer? How will you know to leave or not? It is important you understand the Local Incident Management Plan. -

Wendy Radford Email
Name: Wendy Radford Email: Gender: Female Age: 65-74 Privacy preference: I would like the Inspector-General to make my submission publicly available My personal story of the fires: My family and I were impacted by the fires only in the sense that we had to cancel our usual summer holidays at Point Hicks/Thurra River/Mueller River National Parks. For decades up to 15 family members and friends traditionally have extended holidays down there, and we usually stop at the smaller towns along the way to spread the economic benefits of a motel stay and buying supplies, take away etc. This year we could not do this so we stayed in Central Victoria. We were heartbroken to see the damage that the fires have done to this beautiful natural area, to which we all feel a great connection. The children stared in disbelief, and the adults could somehow begin to know how the first Australians must have felt to see their country so destroyed and decimated. We could not bare to think of the animals, reptiles and birds, the carnage and damage to the likelihood of their survival. Emotionally, the fires left scars that will not heal until this bush heals. Living in the Central Victorian forests (Greater Bendigo National Park is on our doorstep) we do not fear wildfire. And, indeed, we had none this year. There has been no fire out of control in forests near us for 150 years. Our CFA and DELWP fire fighters are quickly on the scene, are well resourced and for this we are most grateful. -

Logging Within RSOS Spotlight on the Acheron Valey
LOGGING WITHIN RAINFOREST SITES OF SIGNIFICANCE SPOTLIGHT ON THE ACHERON VALLEY [NATIONAL RSOS CH6: ACHERON] Dear Premier, Ministers and Treasurer; Daniel Andrews Jaala Pulford Lisa Neville Tim Pallas Premier Agriculture Minister Environment Minister Treasurer [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] VicForests’ Logging within Rainforest Sites of Significance: Spotlight on the Acheron Valley In Victoria in 2015 the logging of our State Forests, which is diminishing biodiversity through its impacts on threatened species' habitat as well as degrading remnant natural landscapes through fragmentation and depletion of critical ecological elements, is not supported by the majority of the broader Victorian community as responsible management of a precious and revered public asset. In this context, it is clear that the logging of Rainforest Sites of Significance does not meet community standards and Victorians would certainly expect this practice to be a relic of the past. THE ACHERON VALLEY URGENT: FOR IMMEDIATE ACTION Logging is currently recommencing within VicForests’ coupes 309-508-0018, 309-509-0002 and 309- 509-0003 in one of Victoria’s National Rainforest Sites of Significance (RSOS). This site is in the Acheron Valley to the north of Warburton and the east of Healesville in the Central Highlands of Victoria near Melbourne. This site supports and is intended to protect rainforest stands that have been recognised as having the highest significance in Victoria and indeed nationally. This assessment was made commencing in 1990 by the then Victorian Environment and Natural Resources departments. -
