THE declared fire danger period will end for Yarra Ranges and Knox residents at 1am next Monday 15 April.
Fire danger periods are based on local conditions and take into account fuel moistures, fuel loads, grassland curing, weather and rainfall. They are a seasonal declaration.
The CFA is urging residents to take extreme care when burning off and to never leave fires unattended.
Residents are also encouraged to check the weather forecast before burning off and to avoid burning off in dry, hot, windy conditions.
Information about fire restrictions is available in CFA’s Can I or Can’t I brochure available at www.cfa.vic.gov.au/restrictions, or by calling the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667.
