KILMORE EAST- MURRINDINDI COMPLEX SOUTH

Awareness message at 6.00pm Wednesday 4 March 2009
Residents in the Yarra and Warburton Valleys need to be aware that although rainfall and today's milder conditions have significantly reduced the threat, fire activity continues in the area. No properties are under threat. Crews returned to the fire line today, however access was severely restricted in many areas by muddy tracks, fallen trees and debris. Firefighters will focus on clearing park and forest tracks over the next few days. The crews will also patrol and black out any smouldering logs and stumps on the edge of the fire.
