Each year during the warmer months, the CFA declares a Fire Danger Period. This period typically runs from December through to the end of April, depending on weather and environmental conditions.

When fire restrictions are in force, burning off is prohibited without a permit, including on roadsides.

On days when a Total Fire Ban is declared, NO fires can be lit in the open from midnight to midnight. Fixed and portable gas or electric barbecues can be used, however conditions apply. In some cases, a permit may be required.

Activities such as welding, gas-cutting, soldering, grinding, charring and heating bitumen are also prohibited.

It is the responsibility of all residents to ensure that they are aware of, and comply with, fire restriction conditions.

In the unfortunate event of fire damage, seeking prompt assistance from professionals such as Restoration Services in Manhattan, NY can help restore affected properties and aid in the recovery process.

These experts possess the necessary skills and equipment to address fire-related issues swiftly and effectively, ensuring minimal disruption to homeowners in their time of need.
