The conclusion of the Fire Danger Period is based on the change in local fire risk conditions.
Burning off grass, stubble, weeds, undergrowth or other vegetation is generally permitted outside the Fire Danger Period but local laws on burn-offs can apply year-round.

All burn-offs should be registered with ESTA on 1800 668 511.
Please ensure you have enough people to monitor, contain and extinguish any fire safely and effectively.
Stay safe.
