Total Fire Bans

The Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) may declare a Total Fire Ban. A Total Fire Ban prohibits the lighting of any fires in the open air and any other activities that may start a fire.

A Total Fire Ban is not the same at Harvest, Vehicle Movement & Hot Works Ban. For further details on Total Fire Bans visit the DFES Website. DFES advertises Total Fire Bans via media outlets such as ABC Local Radio and on its website.
