GEORGE NEWS - The public is advised that George Fire Services will be undertaking a Control Burn north of Loerie Park today, Wednesday 16 October, due to favourable weather conditions.
Residents should be unaffected as the wind direction will move smoke away from the residential area.
George Fire Services will closely monitor via the mobile JOC.
Control burns reduce fuel loading (dead leaves, tree limbs, and other debris) in some areas and are implemented to prevent wildfires from spreading.
