Shire urges appropriate firewood collection

Shire urges appropriate firewood collection

Winter is upon us and with many home fireplaces now ablaze the Shire of Augusta Margret River is urging people to refrain from sourcing their wood from Shire Reserves, Crown Land, and National Parks. The Department of Biodiversity Conservation and Attractions provides options for legally collecting wood without a permit, providing it is taken from a designated area, is for personal use only, and is already fallen timber. “Please play by the rules so that important native habitats and ecosystems can be preserved.” Information about collecting firewood for personal use can be found on the DBCA website here and pdf and online maps are here The maximum penalty for clearing without a permit is $250,000.
