Foreword

Working together, Forest Fire Management Victoria (FFMVic*) and the Country Fire Authority (CFA) have developed this Joint Fuel Management Program which covers the Barwon South West FFMVic Region and South West CFA Region. It demonstrates our commitment to working more closely together to deliver the best bushfire risk reduction outcomes for Victorians.

The Joint Fuel Management Program is planned to achieve an integrated and risk-focused fuel management program across public and private land. It is designed to implement long-term bushfire management strategies that outline how the risk of bushfires is managed for the protection of life and property on public and private land, while maintaining and improving natural ecosystems.

During the 2019/20 summer, we saw devastating bushfires across eastern Australia, which have had significant impacts on our communities and the environment.

In response, we have developed a Joint Fuel Management Program which implements our strategies to achieve or maintain residual risk at or below set targets but also supports our plan for managing landscape-scale bushfire propagation and the reduction of risk to ecosystems from these large fires. In some places, this may include identifying burns in recently burnt landscapes, with consideration given to the local context.

We also acknowledge the significant change during the past year with the establishment of Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) on 1 July 2020. This occurred as part of the Fire Services Reform involving CFA and the Metropolitan Fire Brigade. The reform process will see the establishment of new FRV areas for Metropolitan Melbourne and key cities and larger towns across the State. The role that FRV will play in the planning and delivery of future JFMPs will be established as the reform process continues.

The following program has been shaped by a variety of research and local information, such as specialist input from FFMVic, CFA staff and volunteers and key industries, as well as knowledge from local communities, including Traditional Owners and key stakeholders. We would like to recognise the work that has been put into developing this Joint Fuel Management Program, by FFMVic, CFA and the local communities.

We encourage your continued input to ensure our plans protect those assets and values which are important to all Victorians.

Joint Fuel Management Program

This Joint Fuel Management Program (JFMP) lists fuel management activities in the Barwon South West DELWP Region and the South West CFA Region only.

It covers Far South West and Otway DELWP Districts and CFA Districts 4,5,6 and 7 (Map 1).

The schedules contained within this document set out where and when activities are planned to occur for the period from 2020/21 to 2022/23. The planned activities are listed by Lead Agency.

To view all fuel management works in your area, the statewide Joint Fuel Management Program map can be viewed at http://www.ffm.vic.gov.au/jfmp.

This document contains the following details:

Planned Burns - fuel reduction, ecological, cultural and other planned burns by indicative year for the three-year period.

Non-Burning Fuel Treatments - the program of works that uses methods other than burning to achieve fuel management objectives.

Fire season preparation works – works done prior to the fire season, to ensure infrastructure used in fire detection and suppression are ready for use.

Cultural burning – planned burns led by Traditional Owners on their Country using fire for a number of purposes.

It is important to note that the ability to carry out planned activities is dependent on seasonal and local weather conditions. To allow for this, planned burns from the second and third years of the program may be brought forward to the current year to replace a burn planned for the first year.

Map 1: DELWP and CFA Districts included on this Joint Fuel Management Program

Note: CFA Districts 15/16/17 and DELWP Districts Wimmera and Midlands have a small overlap in to the Barwon South West Region, fuel treatments in these CFA/DELWP Districts are captured in the Grampians Region or Midlands Region JFMP.

The JFMP is prepared and will be implemented in accordance with Safer Together: A new approach to reducing the risk of bushfire in Victoria, the Code of Practice for Bushfire Management on Public Land 2012 and relevant CFA and FFMVic Instructions, Manuals and Guidelines.

Burns on public land associated with logging regeneration as well as small heap burns are not included in the JFMP as they are approved as part of separate planning processes.

Our Objectives

This JFMP has been developed to implement strategies set out in the draft Barwon South West Bushfire Management Strategy (BMS), which has been developed by FFMVic and CFA in consultation with agencies, stakeholders and the community.

The BMS is a sub plan to the Barwon South West Strategic Bushfire Management Plan and establishes a cross-tenure fuel management strategy to address the bushfire risk across public and private land. It sets clear objectives and associated performance measures for fire management at a regional scale. It identifies where important values and assets are located across the landscape, as well as regional trends including population, industry and environmental change. The BMS defines the configuration of fire management zones across the region to apply appropriate fire management activities to reduce bushfire risk for identified values and promote ecological resilience over the life of the strategy (30-40 years).

The cross-agency planning process was overseen by the Barwon South West Fire Sub-Committee (BSWFSC), who have ownership of the Bushfire Management Strategy.

CFA District 04, 05 & FFMVic Far South West DistrictSummary

The Far South West Fire District 2021-2023 JFMP schedules 30,500 hectares for planned burning across the 3 year planning period, including 3,150 ha of private land.

Fire management Zones are currently being revised, the new proposed zones are used throughout the JFMP.

Table 1 shows a breakdown of the FFMVic led planned burns by fire management zone. Nearly half of the Landscape Management Zone burning is made up of 7,120 ha of heathlands nominated for winter mosaic burning. The private planned burning is for the most part cultural burning.

Alignment with New Strategic Bushfire Management Plan

The 2021-2023 JFMP is the first iteration of the JFMP that attempts to realign planned burning with the Strategic Bushfire Management Plan (SBMP) developed during 2018-19. 32% (9,801 ha) of the nominated area in this JFMP is carried over from the previous JFMP. 68% (20,710 ha) of the proposed burns are new nominations that align with the intent of the new SBMP. This includes 1,512 ha of APZ treatment that was previously zoned as BMZ or LMZ. This includes APZ south west of Dergholm, west of Casterton, west of Milltown and the to the north west of Bolwarra. Burns adjacent to the Heywood power substation and Portland water treatment plant provide protection for critical infrastructure.

New burns are also nominated in areas of BMZ designed to act as ‘landscape’ breaks in the updated SBMP. The intent of these areas of BMZ is to try and reduce the size of bushfires in the wider landscape. About 2,000 ha of BMZ is nominated along the interface between the Lower Glenelg and Cobboboonee National Parks. BMZ burns adjacent to the Casterton to Penola Road, and along Vickerys Road at Roseneath are designed to act as landscape breaks.

South Eastern Red-tailed Black Cockatoo Feeding Habitat

Of the 30,738 ha nominated in the 2021-2023 JFMP, about 12,500 ha (41%) is coincident with the modelled feeding habitat of the SE Red-tailed Black Cockatoo. This represents about 14% of the modelled SE RTBC feeding habitat over 3 years, or an average of 4,188 ha (4.7%) SE RTBC habitat treated per year.

Of this 12,500 ha:

· 54% (6,750 ha) is designated LMZ;

· 44% (5,521 ha) is designated BMZ;

· 1,100 ha (8.8%) will be treated to help reduce infestations of pine wildings (Pinus radiata);

· 4,451 ha (35.6%) will be treated as autumn and winter mosaic burning:

· 1,966 ha (15.7%) in the Kentbruck Heath; and

· 943 ha (7.5%) in heathland in the Dergholm State Park.

Cultural Burning

3,150 ha (10% of JFMP total) of private burns are included. These private burns encompass the Budj Bim cultural landscape and include country at Lake Condah, Lake Gorrie, Allambie, Kurtonitj and Tyrendarra. Additionally, 3 cultural burns along the Portland foreshore at Nuns Beach, Anderson Point and Convincing Ground at Allestree have been nominated.

Much of the Lake Condah and Allambie areas was burnt in the Budj Bim Complex bushfire of December 2019.

Residual Risk Reduction

The residual risk reduction performance of the proposed JFMP was modelled by the BSW Risk and Evaluation team in late July 2020. Analysis was undertaken using Phoenix Rapidfire fire simulation software. Weather conditions representing a peak Forest FDI of 130 (Code Red) were assumed.

Not surprisingly, the planned burns that contribute most to residual risk reduction can be found across 15 sites (3,756 ha) in Gorae, Heathmere, Bolwarra, Mt Clay and Narrawong.

When analysed, the JFMP, if fully implemented, would result in a residual risk reduction of 6% for the Far South West fire district over the 3 years.

CFA District 06, 07 & FFMVic Otways DistrictSummary

There is strong alignment to the strategy as per previous years. Key Points to note are:

· There is a strong focus of burn placement through the highest risk bushfire pathway between Forrest and Anglesea with burns close to highest risk townships of Lorne, Aireys Inlet and Anglesea as well as in the broader landscape along the Northern Ramp, Paddys Swamp and along the grass-forest interface in the Gherang / Wensleydale area. The most influential burns in reducing residual risk all occur in this area and are shown in table 2. Townships benefitting the greatest amount from these burns are Lorne, Fairhaven, Moggs Creek, Aireys Inlet and Anglesea.

· As per strategy intent of providing risk reduction outcomes to many townships (not just the highest risk larger townships), the JFMP identifies burns that contribute significant risk reduction outcomes to townships throughout the Otway Ranges. The highest priority burn for a selection of townships across the Otways is shown in Table 3. Using Forrest as an example, JFMP burns that produce the greatest risk reduction to the Forrest township are Tip Road, Barre Warre Trail, Pipeline Road and Blackwood Access.

· For some townships such as Wye River, the highest priority burn to reduce risk is a significant distance from the township. This highlights the idea of placing burns in multiple locations through damaging spread pathways – not just adjacent to the township.

· The greatest risk reduction outcomes to a range of values is achieved by placing burns across all 3 fuel management zones. This JFMP does this with 14% of area in APZ, 58% area in BMZ and 28% area in LMZ (Fire management Zones are currently being revised, the new proposed zones are used throughout the JFMP)

When analysed, the JFMP, if fully implemented, would result in a residual risk reduction of 24% for the Otway Fire District over the 3 years.

Expanding how we apply fire in the Otways to meet a range of outcomes

The strategy intent for different parts of the landscape has been relatively stable for a number of years now. This has presented some opportunities to explore the use of alternative deliver approaches such as shorter burn windows and the use broader mechanical treatment close to the highest risk townships.

This JFMP provides significant flexibility to enable this type of approaches to occur across the landscape (Figure below). Specifically, burns with Landscape Mosaic Treatment intent include:

· The two Anglesea Heath units (Bald Hills and Salt Creek) and an expansion of this style of fire application to the Carlisle area with a 3000 hectare burn unit in the Boggy Creek area west of Gellibrand.

· Burns along the Northern Ramp between Forrest and Pennyroyal where deeper gully systems provide logical burn boundaries. This includes the potential to explore the use of short-interval return periods in the Neck-Wickham burn unit.

· The Carlisle River – Hargreaves Track burn which provides for a mixture of edge ignition and/or late season (potentially wind driven) mosaic style burn.

In all these burns, there has been consideration of the potential movement of fire within the area with boundaries of the units adjusted to maximise opportunities for fire application whilst staying within the planned area.

In addition, there are a number of areas identified close to townships across the Otways that been identified for broader scale mechanical treatment. This includes 3 areas at Lorne and 1 each at Marengo, Wye River, Ocean Grove, Anglesea and Gellibrand.

Map: Shows the majority of the JFMP (orange), Landscape Mosaic burns (Yellow) and areas identified for broader mechanical treatment (purple).

Residual Risk Reduction

The draft Barwon South West Bushfire Management Strategy contributes to achieving the Victorian Government Statewide risk reduction objective, which commits to maintaining bushfire risk at or below a residual risk of 70% in the long-term.

Residual risk is the risk, on average, that bushfires will impact on life and property across the landscape. It is expressed as the percentage of the risk that remains after bushfire history and fuel management (mainly planned burning) activities are considered. It is reported on an annual basis.

Each District works towards managing the local bushfire risk through identifying planned burns and other fuel management works, which collectively will meet the Statewide risk reduction target.

This JFMP aims to meet or exceed the regional residual risk targets and to enable the delivery of bushfire management strategies other than residual risk. It provides flexibility to account for different seasonal conditions. This may mean that not all planned burns and other works in Year 1 are carried out, which may mean that the projected residual risk is not achieved.

Non-burning fuel treatments

Non-burning fuel treatment can include mulching, slashing or other operations which do not involve planned burning to reduce fuel loads. The work is an important contributor to reducing bushfire risk to communities as non-burning treatments may be more appropriate or practical in certain areas. For example, fuel on small areas located within or close to townships may be slashed or mulched, where burning is impractical. These methods may also be more suitable in certain vegetation types.

Some of these fuel treatments are annual, with others prioritised based on the seasonal conditions and scheduling of specific planned burns. The actual treatment area will be dependent on the condition of the fuels at the time of assessment. Full details of our non burn fuel treatments can be found on the maps that support this JFMP.

Cultural Burning

Cultural fire is fire deliberately put into the landscape authorised and lead by the Traditional Owners of that Country for a variety of purposes, including ceremony, protection of cultural and natural assets, fuel reduction, regeneration and management of food, fibre and medicines, flora regeneration, fauna habitat protection and healing Country’s spirit.

We are guided by the Victorian Traditional Owner Cultural Fire Strategy which provides policy direction and a framework for fire and land management agencies to better enable Traditional Owners to undertake cultural burning for these cultural objectives.

There are six principles underpinning this strategy:

· cultural burning is right fire, right time, right way and for the right (cultural reasons), according to lore;

· burning is a cultural responsibility;

· cultural fire is living knowledge;

· monitoring, evaluation and research support cultural fire objectives and enable adaptive learning;

· Country is managed holistically; and

· cultural fire is healing.

The Strategy was authored by Victorian Traditional Owners with the support of a partnership between the Federation of Victorian Traditional Owner Corporations, DELWP, Parks Victoria and the CFA.

FFMVic and CFA recognises that cultural burning can assist landholders and communities in the use of fire to care for Country. The sharing of knowledge by our local Traditional Owners as well as from indigenous peoples from other parts of Australia will assist in improving our adaptive fire management practices in Victoria. This builds on supporting community through learning about how we live with fire.

Working together to foster knowledge sharing is an important way to enable participation of Aboriginal communities.

The following cultural burns are nominated and will be led by Traditional Owners with support from Forest Fire Management Victoria and CFA.

Appendix (1): FFMVic Schedules of Activities

Schedules 1 and 2 contain the details of FFMVic-led planned burning activities. Please note that the planned burn year and season identified for each planned burn is indicative only and may be changed due to weather conditions and operational requirements.

Schedules 3 and 4 contain a summary of proposed non-burning fuel treatments for 2020/21.
