Planned burn: Bayview Conservation Area – 27 and 29 August 2024
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedInEmail

Redland City Council’s Parks and Conservation crews will undertake hazard reduction burns in a section of bushland within the Bayview Conservation Area on Tuesday 27 and Thursday 29 August 2024, weather conditions permitting.

The location of the burn area is 110-186 Days Road, Redland Bay – highlighted in yellow on the map.

The purpose of the burn is to reduce the volume of forest litter fuel, which will assist with hazard reduction – reducing the fire danger and providing conditions essential for native regeneration.

It is appreciated that this burn may cause some inconvenience, however all attempts will be made to limit any smoke hazards.

Traffic management (control burn and smoke hazard advisory signs) will be in place in neighbouring streets that may be impacted by smoke.

Motorists are advised to drive with caution and to conditions.

Council recommends that people close their windows and doors and those who have a respiratory condition keep their medications nearby.

To protect wildlife during a planned burn, Council:

  • Aims to carry out cooler, less intense and slower burns with lower flames
  • Excludes sensitive wildlife habitat from planned burn areas
  • Burns in a mosaic/patchy manner
  • Inspects sites for wildlife and clears around hollow-bearing trees and important habitat features prior to burns
  • Walks through the site during burn preparation activities (days leading up to the burn date) and also on the day of the burn
  • Tries to ensure that wildlife has safe movement corridors if they need to move out of the area temporarily.

Residents can receive targeted alerts about planned burns on Council land, based on burn location and prevailing winds, by opting in for community alerts through Council’s emergency notification messaging service. To register, go Council’s Redlands Coast Disaster Dashboard at disaster.redland.qld.gov.au and follow the prompts under the Redlands Coast Alerts tab.
