Hazard reduction activities will be subject to prevailing weather conditions. Council advises residents to prepare for possible smoke hazards and related health impacts and recommends the following steps: 

  • Keep all door and windows closed to prevent smoke entering homes. 
  • Residents with breathing difficulties are advised to remain indoors and have any medication close by. 
  • Refrain from hanging out washing to minimise damage from falling embers or smoke. 
  • Retract pool covers and stow any outdoor furniture to prevent ember burns. 
  • Be aware that snakes and other vermin may be on the move because of the burning bushland.  

Thank you for your patience. For more information, please contact Council’s Customer Service Centre available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on 1300 ISAACS (1300 472 227), or email records@isaac.qld.gov.au.
