  • Vegetation Burning
    1 Wildfires have been part of our environment for millions of years. In dry forest types, wildfires can be expen sive to fight and cause millions of dollars of damage on hot, windy days. Fuel, or the amount of vegetation available to be burnt during a fire, directly affects the intensity of a fire. The more fuel on the ground, the greater the wildfire damage. Fuel reduction burning aims to rob wildfires of their fuels before they start and to minimise their effects. This booklet provides the necessary information to safely use fire to reduce fuel loads on and around your property.
