SBMP BOP Fuel Management

Created 04/10/2024

Updated 04/10/2024

The ACT Parks & Conservation Service (PCS) manages about 73% or roughly 187,000 ha across the ACT and the Googong Foreshore, NSW. PCS implements an extensive ongoing bushfire fuel management program. Fuel management can reduce fire behaviour and severity, improve firefighter safety, increase the probability of suppression and reduce the impacts of bushfires on natural and built assets. The three means for managing bushfire fuels are reduction, removal and conversion to a less flammable type, and are achieved by undertaking the slashing, grazing, physical removal, and/or prescribed burns. These activities are described in a yearly program of work referred to as the Bushfire Operations Plan (BOP), which sets out activities to meet the requirements of the Strategic Bushfire Management Plan for the ACT (SBMP).The Bushfire Operational Plans map shows the Environment, Planning & Sustainable Development Directorate (EPSDD) Bushfire Operations Plan (BOP) for the current financial year. The EPSDD BOP is derived from the 5-year Regional Fire Management Plans, which can also be viewed on this site. The EPSDD BOP details the specific timing, type and location of fuel-reduction, access and infrastructure activities proposed to be undertaken in the ACT in the current financial; year, in accordance with the Strategic Bushfire Management Plan (SBMP).
