We see fires starting late at night when no one's around.
Our most recent fire started at midnight.
So it's not natural.
It's not a barbecue.
It's nothing like that.
Someone has gone out and deliberately lit this to manage the vegetation in some fashion.
There is a risk, obviously, then with barbecues and the like, that can happen.
But yeah, the big issue for us is delivered fires.
Fire has been used as a management tool, absolutely.
But the dates where you can do that, you can't do it between the 1st of March and the end of August.
And you can see from our statistics, things have improved.
And we will work with people looking at other methods of managing vegetation, mechanical or maybe burning small sections in the open season when it's legal to do.
So things have improved.
But where they do happen, we will investigate them.
We do report them to the Department of Agriculture.
So there's probably penalties coming for people whose lands have been burned.
It's often said, but any fire I've seen has been deliberately lit or barbecue or burnt out car, something like that.
If we could sort those ones out, I'd be quite happy to deal with the glass bottles.
But really not an issue for us.
Yeah, absolutely.
