This Saturday, your local heroes will be carrying out the first of the planned burn-off /mitigation burns for the season. These important early burns help protect our town from dangerous wildfires and reduce the risk of severe damage to surrounding bushland.

Residents are asked to prepare for smoke in the area and take any necessary precautions, particularly those with respiratory conditions.

Thank you for your understanding and support as crews work to keep our community and environment safe.

Today we welcomed home the 22 Northern Territory Fire and Emergency Services personnel who have been assisting with the Victorian bushfire response.

In total, 56 NTFES frontline firefighters and Incident Management Team personnel were deployed to support Victorian crews over the past two weeks.

Drawn from NT Fire and Rescue Service, Bushfires NT and the NT Emergency Service, our personnel were based in Bendigo, Mildura, Puckapunyal and the State Control Centre in Melbourne.

These deployments highlight the way emergency services across Australia work together when communities are under threat.

Our thoughts remain with the Victorian communities impacted by these bushfires, and we acknowledge the challenges they continue to face during recovery.

Welcome home crews and thank you for your service.
