PRODUCTION INFORMATION

As per RFS document Standards for AssetProtection Zones.

To enable the safe use of Direct Attacksuppression strategies within the zone.To minimise bush fire impacts onundefendable assets.

To protect human life, propertyand highly valued publicassets and values.

Asset ProtectionZone

Strategic FireAdvantage Zone

Zone Purpose Supression Objectives Zone Characteristics

To provide strategic areas offire protection advantagewhich will reduce the speedand intensity of bush fires, andreduce the potential for spotfire development;To aid containment of wildfiresto existing managementboundaries.

ResidentPreparation Zone

To identify that residents /property owners have a vitalrole to play in bush fire riskmanagement and that theyare responsible for their ownproperty preparedness.

Have you prepared your Bush Fire Survival Plan?Download a copy of the Bush Fire Survival Plan from www.rfs.nsw.gov.au

To increase the preparedness of residentsfor bush fire and ensure that vegetation inclose proximity to residential assets areadequately maintained. To provide adefendable space for residents / firefighters and complement hazard reductionworks carried out within Asset ProtectionZones / Strategic Fire Advantage Zones.

Residents / property owners should strive toachieve a 'Fire-Safe' property as outlined in theillustration above. Concerns regarding the bushfire safety of neighbouring properties should beraised with the NSW Rural Fire Service.

WARNING INFORMATION

To improve the likelihood and safe use of:Parallel Attack suppression strategieswithin the zone.and/orIndirect Attack (back burning) in high tovery high fire weather conditions withinthe zone.To reduce the likelihood of:Crown fire development within the zone.and/orSpot fire ignition potential from the zone.

Zone width related to suppression objectives anddependant upon:•Topography•Aspect•Spotting propensity•Location of adjacent firebreaks•Mosaic pattern of treatmentAssess Overall Fuel Hazard (OFH) oncevegetation communities reach minimum firethresholds within this plan.Management practices should aim to achievemosaic fuel reduction patterns so that the majorityof the SFAZ has an OFH of less than high.
