Do you burn piles of dead or dry vegetation to maintain your property? The new Open Pile Burn Policy is designed to make this process safer for you, your neighbours and our environment.

We’ve updated the Open Pile Burning Policy based on feedback from you and the Rural Fire Service.

Updates include:
• Only burn dead, dry vegetation – no green, damp or compacted material
• Burn one pile at a time, max size 2m wide x 1.5m high
• Burn piles must occur during 7am - 10pm and extinguished between 10pm - 7am
• Keep piles 150mm branches or smaller to reduce smoke
• Fire must be 20m from buildings and clear of flammable material within 4.5m
• Have a hose and water supply ready to control the fire
• Give 24 hours’ notice to neighbours and the RFS (or Fire & Rescue NSW if not in a Rural Fire District).
• A responsible adult must supervise the fire at all times

Your feedback is vital to ensure our Open Pile Burn Policy meets your needs and keeps our region safe. We encourage everyone to review the policy and complete the survey by Friday 7 November.
