A planned burn will start within the next 24 hours in Three Bridges, Forest Fire Management Victoria (FFMVic) and Country Fire Authority (CFA) have announced.
It will take place south of the houses along Hacketts Creek Road and weather conditions and fuel moisture levels are being monitored.
It will be a fairly small planned burn at 3 ha.
Note that some burns are carried out in stages, with part of the burn completed, and crews returning later to carry out further work within the burn area.
If so, you will receive notifications when the burn is once again scheduled to be carried out.
Planned burns can produce heavy smoke which can impact visibility and air quality – locals are encouraged to factor in these conditions.
Access may be restricted where planned burning is being carried out – this can include forests, parks, national parks, state government and council reserves and along roadsides.
