Assistant Chief Fire Officer’s Foreword

Outlined in Safer Together: A new approach to reducing the risk of bushfire in Victoria, the Victorian Government is committed to maintain bushfire risk at or below 70% on public land.

The Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) and Parks Victoria, carry out fire management activities on Victoria’s public land to help reduce the impacts of bushfires to communities and the environment. Fuel management is one way to reduce bushfire risk.

DELWP undertakes strategic bushfire management planning, which is carried out by DELWPs bushfire risk landscape teams. There are seven bushfire risk landscape teams across the state. Each team develops a strategy to reduce the risk of bushfire impacting on communities, infrastructure and the environment. The development of the Fire Operations Plan (FOP) is informed by strategic bushfire management plans.

DELWP’s FOP outlines where these activities are intended to be carried out over a three year period, if weather and other conditions permit. These activities include planned burning, slashing, mowing and clearing works, track works and construction of fire breaks.

The Hume Fire Operation Plan (Hume FOP) outlines operations that contribute to meeting statewide objectives. The statewide objective is to undertake fuel management to maintain bushfire risk at or below 70%, and maintain or improve ecosystem resilience. To achieve these objectives between 225,000 and 275,000 hectares per annum will require treatment.

Each year we review and update the Hume FOP. Updates are based on the latest local information and driven by DELWP’s strategic bushfire risk management planning. The Alpine North East, East Central and the Mallee Murray Goulburn Bushfire Risk Landscape teams produce Strategic Bushfire Management Plans that assist with developing the Hume FOP by focussing on fuel management activities in areas where there is the most impact on risk. This leads to an effective and efficient plan for delivering fuel management and ecological burns.

The FOP development is shaped by feedback and knowledge from local communities and key stakeholders such as local councils, Parks Victoria, forest managers and flora and fauna specialists, as well as key industries. The Country Fire Authority works in partnership with DELWP to provide local knowledge and expertise for planned burns.

The Fire Operations Plan is an important part of our work to reduce the risk of damaging bushfires. We make changes to the plan wherever we can, but the decision to carry out fire prevention activities is always driven by the need to reduce the impact of bushfires to our local people, property and the environment.

DELWP works with interest groups and the wider community to understand how planned burns may impact people and industries and to gain important local knowledge to better plan and deliver burns.

Tony Long, Assistant Chief Fire Officer, Hume Region

Fire Operations Plan 2016/17 ̶ 2018/19 Hume Region

Hume Region Fire Operations Plan

This document sets out where and when fuel reduction activities will take place over the next three years for the period 2016/17 to 2018/19 within the Hume Region. These activities are carried out to reduce bushfire fuels – like leaves, twigs and grass – to make bushfires less intense. Activities are also done to maintain the health of ecosystems that rely on fire to regenerate. The area covered by this plan is shown in Map 1.

This Plan covers all public land including all national parks, State parks and regional parks and all State forests. Numerous other small reserves and Crown land are also included.

Some areas of neighbouring private property may be included in this plan if identified through strategic planning as being a possibility for inclusion with public land fuel treatment. No works would be undertaken in this area until approval is granted by the landowner.

The Plan is prepared, and will be implemented, in accordance with the Code of Practice for Bushfire Management on Public Land (the Code), Safer Together: A new approach to reducing the risk of bushfire in Victoria, and relevant DELWP Instructions, Manuals and Guidelines.

The objectives for the fire management zones are outlined in the Code and form the basis of this Fire Operations Plan.

It should be noted that burns associated with logging regeneration as well as small heap and grass burns are not included in the Fire Operation Planning process. The locations of strategic fuelbreaks are included for information only. These activities are approved via other DELWP and Parks Victoria processes.

Map 1: Hume Region


Activities in the Fire Operations PlanPlanned BurnsPlanned burning is one of DELWP’s most important fire prevention activities. It involves the controlled application of fire during periods of lower fire risk, to achieve one of three main purposes: fuel reduction, ecological management and forest regeneration.

It is important to understand that planned burning operations, particularly fuel reduction burns, do not stop or eliminate the risk of bushfires. However, Victorian research, and similar information from other parts of Australia and overseas, clearly shows that firefighters have a much better chance of managing bushfires in areas where fuel reduction burns have been carried out.

Approved burns in this year’s Plan will require a range of preparation works to make the planned area ready to ignite when the weather and other conditions are right. Preparation works may include, brushing up or grading of existing boundaries and internal tracks, management of hazardous trees, the construction and preparation of boundary and control lines with machinery and pest plant controls. The preparation works will have on-site inspections which will assess the surrounding assets and planned burn objectives .

Non Burn Fuel TreatmentsNon burn fuel treatments such as the maintenance and construction of fire control lines, fire access tracks, fuel breaks, fire infrastructure and other fuel management activities are required to support the planned burning program. Treatments to achieve these works can include slashing, pruning, chemical application (in alignment with safety standards), grazing or other operations (such as ploughing, mulching or rolling) that may be more appropriate or practical in certain areas. For example, fuel on small areas or blocks located within townships may be treated mechanically, where burning is impractical. These methods may also be more suitable in certain vegetation types.

Strategic FuelbreaksThe Department of Environment Land Water and Planning (DELWP) and Parks Victoria are working together to establish and maintain a network of strategic fuelbreaks to expand the protection of communities, forests and parks from the risk of bushfire. A strategic fuelbreak is a strip of land where vegetation has been modified to reduce the amount of fuel available to burn during a bushfire. Strategic fuelbreaks are an important tool for fire management on public land. They provide a fuel-reduced area from which to conduct back burning ahead of an approaching bushfire or during DELWP’s planned burning season.

Machinery is used to clear vegetation generally within a 15-20 metre wide strip. In some instances this width could be up to 40m. Existing roads and tracks are considered part of the clearing. Where possible, overstorey trees are retained to provide shading and connection between the trees for wildlife and landscape values. The locations of strategic fuelbreaks are included for information only. These activities are approved via other DELWP and Parks Victoria processes.

Preparation of the Hume Fire Operations Plan

The development of the Hume Fire Operations Plan involves the identification of planned burns and other fuel management works by DELWP, Parks Victoria and other interested stakeholders.

Values and priorities must be balanced in the development of the Plan including:

relevant legislation and Departmental policies relating to environmental and cultural heritage protection, and emergency management, including Safer Together: A new approach to reducing the risk of bushfire in Victoria

various Departmental fire instructions and guidelines;

relevant Strategic Bushfire Management Plans;

the Code of Practice for Bushfire Management on Public Land;

the Code of Practice for Timber Production;

relevant Forest Management and Park Management Plans;

biodiversity, soil, water, economic and cultural values within the District; and

environmental, cultural or economic strategies which could be impacted by the Plan’s implementation.

Where necessary, prescriptions for particular values maybe specified for each burn which are then incorporated into individual Burn Plans. These prescriptions are reviewed annually to take into account experience from burning operations in the previous season.

How to read this Fire Operations Plan

This Fire Operations Plan contains all proposed fuel management activities for Hume Region and consists of District Sub Plans containing a number of District Schedules and a Regional schedule for Fire Zone Amendments.

District Schedules:Schedule 1 – Planned Burns. This schedule lists planned fuel reduction, ecological and other planned burns by indicative year for the three year period.

Schedule 2 – Non Burn Fuel Treatments. This schedule lists the fuel treatment program to support the planned burning program.

Schedule 3 – Strategic Fuelbreaks. This schedule provides an overview of strategic fuelbreaks to be constructed or maintained during the three year period.

Regional Schedule:Schedule 4 – Amendments to Fire Management Zones. This schedule lists the location where zoning will change.


Important note:The ability to carry out burns is dependent on seasonal and local weather conditions. To allow for this, planned burns from the second and third years of the Plan are considered as contingencies for the first year. This means that a second or third year burn may be brought forward to the current year to replace a burn planned for the first year.

Information provided on schedules

The schedules contain information about burns and fuel treatments. For each schedule there are a number of attributes used to provide information about the fuel treatments. The definitions of the attributes are listed below.

Schedule 1Local Government Area (LGA) – the municipality in which the majority of the fuel management activity is located.

Burn Number and Name– the unique identifier for each burn or planned fuel management activity.

Location – a bearing and distance of the planned burn from the nearest major township/locality.

Land Manager – the organisation responsible for day-to-day management of the works site – DELWP (Department of Environment Land Water and Planning); PV (Parks Victoria).

Burn Season – indicates the preferred season in which the burn will be completed. Actual delivery may be any time of the year.

Burn Type – indicates the primary purpose of the burn including fuel reduction burn (FRB), ecological burn (ECO).

Land Management Objective - identifies the desired land management outcome(s) of the burn.

Fire Management Zone (FMZ) – an area of land in which fire is managed for specific asset, fuel and ecological objectives. Values included in this column can be APZ - Asset Protection Zone; BMZ – Bushfire Management Zone; LMZ - Landscape Management Zone, PBEZ – Planned Burn Exclusion Zone; or, NZ -Not Zoned.

Grid Reference – the six figure grid reference used to locate burns on a map.

Planned Burn Area – the maximum area of the fuel management activity measured in hectares (ha), including areas specifically excluded from disturbance.

New Burn– ‘YES’ = New burn did not appear on last year’s FOP. ‘NO’ = Not a new burn. Burn was approved in the previous (2015/16- 2017/18) Fire Operations Plan but has not been carried out, it is included in this FOP and may be conducted at any time.

Schedule 2Non Burn Fuel Treatments – the type of works planned.

Maintenance (ha) – activities within a previously approved and impacted area or easement. Such as mowing the regrowth on a road easement or fuelbreak.

Renewal (ha) – a high impact activity such as soil disturbance or vegetation modification on an existing footprint. The area has previously been subject to significant disturbance. For example reclaiming an existing road verge, which was once cleared, but not been maintained. The vegetation to be cleared is obviously younger regrowth, compared to surrounding vegetation outside the footprint. The Road Class is not being upgraded in this process, just restoring the verge to its previous width.

New (ha) – A high impact activity such as soil disturbance or vegetation modification on an area has not been subject to this type of disturbance previously.
