Hazard reduction burn - Gordon

ACT Rural Fire Service will conduct a hazard reduction burn in grassland between Drakeford Drive and Covenant College in Gordon from 10:00am to 4:00pm Saturday 21 April 2018.

Dependent on suitable weather and fuel moisture conditions the total burn area is approximately 2.5 hectares.

There will be four fire tankers and one support vehicle onsite that will remain there for the duration of the burn, departing once the burn area has been deemed blacked out.

The burn will reduce fire fuel loads to protect our community and improve ecosystem health.
