1 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: It's been fire chief. Do you have Marshall mourning? 2 00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 2: Good morning, Luke. 3 00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: Guy Fawkes was earlier in the week, and I've heard 4 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,960 Speaker 1: a few pop pop bean bangs around town every night since. 5 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: No dramas for you guys, I hope. 6 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 2: Not yet, not yet, not too big. But unfortunately it's 7 00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:18,799 Speaker 2: the summer year when we start to see a few 8 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 2: more scrub fires in unfortunate injuries. 9 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,439 Speaker 1: So into the weekend where many families may have been 10 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 1: stacking them up for tonight or said day, weathers looking 11 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,560 Speaker 1: pretty complimentary in all fairness, but it is starting to 12 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: get dry. So what messages would you like to get across? 13 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:38,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, they're starting to dry off here at the ends. 14 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 2: So we've had a long grass yet the year, which 15 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 2: is always a bit of a concern for us. At 16 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 2: this time of year. There is such a thing as 17 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 2: still there is still such a thing as common scency 18 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 2: at there. So talking about when you're going to light 19 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 2: your fireworks, we want to see them on a night's 20 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 2: hard ground, hard flat surface, a big, wide open area 21 00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 2: with no sort of grass around their long grass and 22 00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 2: the sort of thing that could catch fire. A lot 23 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:03,959 Speaker 2: of them have the spike, so you can spike into 24 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: the ground, so they're not going to stand up right, 25 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: which is pretty important. But if they haven't, if the 26 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 2: ground's too hard, you're on a sealed service, a bucket 27 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:13,759 Speaker 2: of scened or something like that to help them stand 28 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 2: up right. There's nothing worse than seeing them fall over 29 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 2: and then fire off in all directions, and we don't 30 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 2: want them seeing them going off into bush fires or 31 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: a worse case scenario, into your house or a neighbor's 32 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 2: house or a building of some description. Water supply is 33 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 2: always very important. Have a bucket of water around the 34 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:35,480 Speaker 2: place with you close by, or a hose or some 35 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: way of putting out a small fire, and then when 36 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: those fire weeks are finished, put them into that bucket 37 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 2: of water to ensure they're out totally before you dispose 38 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 2: of them. Definitely not if it's windy. If the wind 39 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: does come up, and hopefully it does into the weekend, 40 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 2: but if the wind comes up, definitely not fire them 41 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: off into the air if that's the case. And then 42 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 2: also people who would like to light a on fire 43 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 2: of some description, but certainly in town that is definitely 44 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 2: a no no. We in the town area, in the 45 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 2: town boundary, you can't light an open outside fire. Ecan 46 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 2: laws require that to be in an over two hectare area, 47 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 2: so it's just a bit of common sense. Take care, 48 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: be safe with them, enjoy them, look after your pets. 49 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 2: But if you want any more information, you could always 50 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 2: go to www.
