The Shire of Toodyay has entered the PROHIBITED BURNING PERIOD. No burning is allowed for any reason during this period, including open cooking, campfires, or the burning of rubbish and garden refuse. For more information see here.
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 as a Harvest, Vehicle Movement & Hot Works Ban. For more information on Total Fire Bans, visit the DFES website. DFES advertises Total Fire Bans on their website and via media outlets such as ABC Local Radio.
