Prescribed Burnoff Alert - Watervale

A prescribed burn is planned on a portion of government-owned and private
land at Watervale tomorrow Thursday 21 November, weather
conditions permitting.

* The burn will start at 12.45pm on Thursday 21 November and is likely
to be completed by 5:00pm that evening.
* The area to be burnt is one hectare in the northwest corner of Watervale
where the Riesling Trail meets Sollys Hill Road.
* It is a landscape protection burn to reduce the fuel load adjacent to
the Riesling Trail to limit the spread of a bushfire into Watervale.
* The Riesling Trail will be diverted around the area via Mt Horrocks
Road and Sollys Hill Road during the burn.
* Sollys Hill Road may be impacted by smoke.
* National Parks and Wildlife Service crews will remain on site until safe.

NPWSSA conducts a statewide program of prescribed burns to reduce the
spread and intensity of bushfires, protect communities and enhance
biodiversity. Prescribed burning is just one tool used to reduce fuel loads
across strategic areas of public and private land.
Prescribed burns will only be carried out when it is deemed safe to do so and
may be cancelled at short notice.

Prescribed burn at Watervale
A prescribed burn is planned on a portion of government-owned and private
