Fire Control

Council distributes the "Fire Management Requirements” to all ratepayers each year. It is important that owners and/ or occupiers of land in the Shire comply with the requirements of the firebreak notice. Severe penalties apply for non-compliance.

Property owners are advised to consider early spraying and burning of blocks. This will greatly reduce problems which may arise during the restricted and prohibited burning times.

The periods for 2020/2021 are as follows:

Emergency Contact Details
Restricted Burning Time
October 1 – October 31st 2020
March 15th 2021 – April 30th 2021
Prohibited Burning Time
November 1st 2020 – March 14th 2021

We have amended the start of the restricted burning time - from October 1 out to October 14 - by order of our CBFCO - contact the Shire of Wagin if you have any questions about fire requirements.

These times are subject to change so please check with your Fire Control Officer.
