ACT Parks and Conservation Service advises that, weather permitting, a controlled burn will be conducted tomorrow.

This ecological burn will be undertaken to create diversity within the Grassland Earless Dragon habitat. This burn will not impact on public access.

Like in all controlled burns, safety will be of paramount importance. Experienced Parks fire managers, supported by trained fire-fighters, will conduct the burning operations.

People with asthma, other chronic respiratory and/or chronic cardiac diseases should not perform vigorous exercise and should stay inside if affected by the smoke. People with asthma in particular should continue their medication and consult their general practitioner if they have any difficulties.
