Sheoak Fire / Peccavi Winery Fire

On the afternoon of Tuesday 28^th March , the Brigade were called out to two separate fires on Sheoak Dve and Wildwood Rd.

Both fires took reasonable time to control due to the dry vegetation. Most firefighters working late into the night and ” mopping up” the next morning.

Captain / FCO ,Matt Muir, said that ” due to no significant rain fall in the area the bush vegetation is still very dry allowing the fires to escape and run away quickly. Residents need to be cautious when conducting hot work activities over this period of time”
