The Brigade conducted it's last hazard reduction burn for the year last night. As of Saturday (1st of December) the Prohibited Burning Period is upon us and we are moving into summer weather conditions. As of midnight Friday no burning is allowed within the City of Kalamunda under any circumstances.
Five members of the Brigade, pictured here at the airport this morning, are heading to Queensland for a five day deployment, as part of a WA contingent of firefighters. The bushfires in Queensland have overwhelmed local resources and this kind of interstate support is commonplace. Brigade members have travelled all over WA and interstate before to support our fellow firefighters around the country.
We wish our firefighters the best of luck, ask them to stay safe, and thank them for volunteering their time for the benefit of the wider Australian community.
Safe travels, the community is in debt to you all.
Eric, John and the rest all the best and come home safe
