Bushfire Watch and Act
PREPARE TO LEAVE - GREEN RANGE

A Bushfire Watch and Act is in place for people in an area bounded by South Coast Highway, Bluff Creek Road, the coastline and Cordinup River in parts of GREEN RANGE in the CITY OF ALBANY.

There is a possible threat to lives and homes as a fire is burning in the area and conditions are changing.

WHAT TO DO
If your plan is to leave, leave now.

People in the area should follow the directions of Emergency Service Personnel.

Take your emergency kit with you. It should include an AM/FM radio that runs off batteries, a first aid kit, a woollen blanket, phones, protective clothing, medication and irreplaceable valuables.

Keep your doors and windows closed to keep out smoke.

Turn off evaporative air conditioners, but keep water running through the system if possible to prevent embers entering your home.

Move flammable materials such as doormats, wheelie bins and outdoor furniture away from your home.

If you plan to stay and defend ensure you are mentally and physically prepared, with protective clothing and an independent water supply. Make final preparations now and start patrolling your property to put out spot fires.
