Fire prevention measures must be completed and all properties (including residential, commercial, industrial and vacant land) cleared of fire hazards on or before 1st December, 2011 to reduce the risk of fires during the bushfire season. Properties must remain free of hazard until the 10th May, 2012. Properties with a land area of less than 2023m2 are required to remove all flammable material (except living trees) by means of spraying, ploughing, cultivating followed by slashing to ground level. Properties with land area greater than 2032m2 are required to install and maintain a 2m wide mineral earth firebreak. More information can be found in the Shire of Harvey Fire Break Order.
Shire of Harvey advises property owners each year by way of advertising in the local newspaper, website and mailing of the Fire Break Order either with the annual rate notices or separately. Property owners who do not comply may be fined a minimum of $250.00 and required to meet Council’s cost to ensure the property is fire safe.
Shire of Harvey Rangers commence property inspections on the 1st of December each year to ensure they comply.
Advice on how to protect your home and when, what and how to burn is available from the Shire of Harvey's Administrator of Law and Safety Services.
Important changes
Council resolved to prohibit the burning of garden refuse/rubbish on the ground; in incinerators or by other methods in areas zoned urban development.
Solid fuel barbecues can be used, but not on days when the Bureau of Meteorology has issued a fire danger forecast of catastrophic; extreme; or very high; or when the State Minister issues a total fire ban. Gas and electric barbeques are permitted at any time under certain conditions. Check before lighting up.
Fire permits are free, however you must apply in person at least 24 hours prior and be in attendance at the fire at all times.
