In 2015, the Victorian Government set out a new approach to reducing the risk of bushfire in Victoria called Safer Together. Safer Together outlines an approach to reducing the risk of bushfires to Victorian communities, which focuses on how effective our actions are in reducing risk. It aims for a more integrated approach across public and private land.

Working together, FFMVic* and the Country Fire Authority (CFA) has developed this first Joint Fuel Management Program which covers the Gippsland Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) Region and South East CFA Region. It demonstrates our commitment to working more closely to deliver the best bushfire risk reduction outcomes for Victorians. It recognises that bushfire risk occurs across all land.

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

Fuel management is recognised as one of the most effective ways to reduce the impacts of bushfires to communities and the environment.

This JFMP has been shaped by a variety of information, such as risk-based planning detailed within our strategic bushfire management plans, specialist input from FFMVic, CFA staff and key industries, as well as knowledge from local communities, including Traditional Owners and key stakeholders.

We have identified planned burns across all land tenures. However, for this first JFMP, only private property burns that are a direct risk reduction benefit, are high profile or where a community need is identified, are included. All other CFA planned burns which are not listed in this document, will be added to the JFMP map over time so the public can see the complete fuel management program from all agencies. In the future, burns will be planned with increasing collaboration, as we continue to work closely together.

All CFA planned burns are documented in Municipal Fire Management Plans held by the relevant local government authority. Some Municipal Fire Management Plans also include strategic fuel breaks, works required for the maintenance of fire access roads and other roadside and railway burns.

The Joint Fuel Management Program (JFMP) replaces DELWP’s Fire Operation Plan (FOP).

Based on feedback and local knowledge from communities and key stakeholders, we will review and update the JFMP each year. We may make changes to burns or other fuel management activities. Our highest priority however, in carrying out fuel management activities is always the need to reduce the impact of bushfires on life and property.

We would like to acknowledge this as a significant milestone for Safer Together and recognise the work that has been put into developing this first Joint Fuel Management Plan, both by FFMVic staff, CFA and local communities. We encourage your continued input to ensure our plans protect those assets and values which are important to all Victorians.

Gippsland Region Joint Fuel Management Program 2018/19 – 2020/21

Foreword

Purpose and objectives of the Gippsland Region Joint Fuel Management ProgramPurposeThe maps and schedules contained within this Joint Fuel Management Program set out where and when fuel management activities are planned to occur for the period 2018/19 to 2020/21 within the Gippsland Region.

These activities are carried out to reduce bushfire fuels – like leaves, twigs, bark and grass – to make bushfires less intense, minimising the risk to communities and providing safety to fire-fighters while fighting these fires. Activities are also done to maintain the health of ecosystems that rely on fire to regenerate.

It is important to note that the ability to carry out burns 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.

Fuel Management activities are under taken across the landscape on public and private land. Through the fuel management planning processes the appropriate lead agency for delivery has been determined.

This document consists of Lead Agency District sub-plans and contains the following schedules:

Schedule 1 – Planned Burns. This schedule lists planned fuel reduction, ecological and other planned burns by indicative year for the three-year period.

Schedule 2 – Non-Burn Fuel Treatments. This schedule summaries the program that uses methods other than burning to achieve the fuel management objectives.

Schedule 3 – Strategic Fuelbreaks. This schedule provides an overview of FFMVic strategic fuelbreaks to be constructed during the three-year period. The locations of strategic fuelbreaks are included for information only. These activities are approved via other FFMVic and Parks Victoria processes.

It should be noted that CFA/Municipality led strategic fuel breaks are critical to bushfire management, although are not included in this Regional JFMP. These activities are approved and listed as part of Municipal planning processes.

The following Districts are part of the Gippsland Region as per Map 1 below:

CFA Lead Planned Burns will continue to be planned and delivered through their respective Authorising District, irrespective of which regional JFMP they appear in.


Map 1: Gippsland Region

Burns associated with logging regeneration as well as small heap burns are not included in the Joint Fuel Management Program process.

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

ObjectiveThe Gippsland Region JFMP has been developed to implement strategies set out in FFMVic’s strategic bushfire management plans which address DELWP’s legal obligations, policy commitments and objectives, including:

bushfire risk reduction to protect human life and property, maintaining and enhancing ecosystem resilience, and achieving other desired outcomes as identified by communities.

Strategic Bushfire Management PlanningFFMVic in consultation with CFA and communities has developed long-term strategic bushfire management plans to identify where it is best to undertake fire management to achieve the above objectives.

The strategies apply to four Fire Management Zones (FMZ) on public land as described in the Code. While the Code of Practice objectives apply across the whole landscape, the FMZ system provides a spatial representation of which objectives are the main focus in different parts of the landscape. These include:

Asset Protection Zone (APZ): where intensive fuel management provides the highest level of localised protection to human life and property;

Bushfire Moderation Zone (BMZ): where there is fuel management to reduce the speed and intensity of bushfires, either close to towns or as they spread through the landscape;


Landscape Management Zone (LMZ): where fuel management is done to reduce fuel hazard, improve ecosystem resilience and manage the land for particular uses (such as forest regeneration and water catchment protection); and

Planned Burning Exclusion Zone (PBEZ): where there is no planned burning, mainly to protect areas that can’t tolerate fire.

The zones and other strategies in strategic bushfire management plans inform the development of the JFMP. They are used to determine where fuel management activities need to be carried out over the next three-year period to meet the longer-term strategy’s objectives, if weather and other conditions permit.

Burns are planned across all available fire management zones (APZ, BMZ and LMZ) for maintaining bushfire risk to desired levels. It is also important to carry out planned burns in remote areas, as fires can start in these areas and spread to threaten houses and communities.

Spatial classification of private land risk (similar to fire management zoning on public land) will occur as further analysis and the planning process for a Strategic Gippsland plan is undertaken in 2018/19. This next step will re-enforce our tenure-blind commitment to achieving an integrated approach to bushfire fuel management.

Strategic bushfire management plans for two bushfire risk landscapes were used in the development of the current Gippsland JFMP. The Alpine and Greater Gippsland Bushfire Risk Landscape strategic plan covers three Gippsland Districts: Tambo, Macalister and Snowy. The remaining Gippsland District, Latrobe, is covered by the East Central Bushfire Risk Landscape strategic plan. The strategic planning process is working towards the realignment of the bushfire risk landscape to Gippsland's Regional boundary to match the operational planning process.

In general, fuel treatment in the form of planned burning will be focused in APZ and BMZ, north-west and south-west of communities, as this is typically the direction from which the worst bushfires approach. Fuel hazard is managed close to towns and communities in APZ and BMZ to reduce bushfire intensity. It is also managed throughout the broader landscape in LMZ to assist with early suppression, preventing smaller bushfires from becoming large campaign bushfires.

Bushfire Risk ReductionSafer Together: A new approach to reducing the risk of bushfire in Victoria sets out the Victorian Government’s commitments to reducing the risk of bushfire in Victoria. It adopts a risk reduction target to guide fuel management, 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.

Residual risk is currently 64.2% in the Gippsland region. The Residual risk status of individual Districts is 82.6% in Latrobe District, 50.1% in Macalister District, 54.7% in Snowy District and 49.9% in Tambo District.

By 2021 the state-wide JFMP is anticipated to reduce residual risk by 18% compared to the level it would reach without fuel management and maintain residual risk below the state-wide target of 70%. Gippsland’s JFMP contributes approximately one fifth (i.e. 3.5% of 18%) of the state-wide reduction in risk from fuel management, anticipating 264,000 ha treated over the three years of the Gippsland JFMP.

Anticipated residual risk following implementation of the 3-year JFMP is 67.4% for the region, 80.9% in Latrobe district, 52.5% in Macalister district, 61.1% in Snowy district and 57.5% in Tambo district. These residual risk calculations are based on Gippsland delivering 88,000ha each year for 3 years.

Residual risk will increase across the region by around 3.2% over 3 years. This is mainly due to fuel accumulation following large bushfires in 2009 (Latrobe district), 2014 (Snowy district), 2017 (Tambo district) and 2018 (Macalister district). If the JFMP is not implemented, residual risk will increase by an estimated 15.2% over 3 years.

See Table 1, which shows projected residual risk with and without JFMP implementation.

Projected Residual Risk if JFMP not implemented 87.1% 62.8% 77.8% 72.9% 79.4%

The Gippsland Region’s contribution to meeting the state-wide JFMP risk reduction target anticipates 88,000 ha per annum of fuel management in the 2018/19-2020/21 JFMP. Table 2 below shows the breakdown of the Gippsland Region’s fuel management planning across the three years of the JFMP. To allow for flexibility in the delivery of the planned burning program, additional hectares are included in the JFMP. Figures represented in the Districts Schedule of planned burns are recorded as gross mapped areas and in some cases, are significantly larger than the nett planned treatment area.

Safer Together commits FFMVic and CFA to working together, sharing responsibility for fuel management with private landholders and local government. This new approach will enhance FFMVic and CFA to plan, prepare and deliver a fuel management program across the landscape, regardless of land tenure.

The Gippsland JFMP has 33 cross-tenure burns over the 3 years of the JFMP. Where cross-tenure and private property burns have been included on this JFMP, representatives from either/or both CFA and FFMVic have worked collaboratively with the relevant landholder(s) to plan the burn. Burns conducted partially or wholly on private land are always undertaken with the landholder’s consent.

In future, we aim to have a greater number of private land burns where risk assessment indicates it is a priority. More private landholders will be involved in fuel management strategy development, and they and the CFA will be empowered to conduct burns on private land with the support of FFMVic.

The JFMP planning process is informed by the current Strategic Bushfire Management Plans, which were created in 2015. Now, under the Safer Together program, a new strategic bushfire management planning process is being undertaken in Gippsland, inclusive of public and private land. Outcomes of this new planning process will:

• align strategic bushfire planning to the Gippsland regional footprint (as opposed to the previous planning footprint of Bushfire Risk Landscapes)

• strengthen the cross-tenure approach to bushfire management planning

• improve planning tools to better link strategic and operational planning

This new approach has a broadened scope of objectives for bushfire management planning that will apply to both public and private land. These objectives have been developed by, and agreed to, through a series of workshops with the fire management sector in Gippsland, and public consultation is currently underway to assess how well they align with the community’s priorities. The objectives are:


• Minimise human life loss and serious injury

• Minimise social, livelihood and economic disruption

• Minimise disruption to essential services and critical infrastructure

• Minimise loss of community and cultural assets

• Minimise decline in native plant and animal populations

In developing an improved strategic bushfire management plan for Gippsland, the interaction and trade-offs associated with achieving these objectives will be considered and incorporated into decision making. The new strategic plan will include revised Fire Management Zoning, spatial classification of private land, and long-term targets for performance measures (including residual risk) for fuel management across Gippsland.

Working with communitiesManaging bushfire risk is an ongoing and shared responsibility in which everyone has a role. To work well with communities to manage bushfire risk, FFMVic operates under the principles of the DELWP Community Charter and CFA operates under the CFA Service Delivery Strategy 2015-2020.

In the Gippsland Region, FFMVic and CFA form partnerships with each other to work with communities, while each agency also maintains relationships with communities independent of each other. Under Safer Together, partnerships between FFMVic, CFA, local government and other agencies will continue to be enhanced so that communities receive the best level of service.

FFMVic and CFA work all year round with communities to understand and reduce bushfire risk. As a part of delivering Safer Together, FFMVic has worked with many stakeholders and partners to develop the JFMP, including Local Government, apiarists, wine growers, Traditional Owner groups and environmental groups.

Community stakeholders have provided input throughout the year resulting in numerous changes to the JFMP. This local knowledge has been incorporated into determining where planned burns take place, how they should be delivered and what values need protection. Changes include removal of burns, addition of private property to enable cross tenure burns, burn boundary alterations and changes with burn scheduling to better reflect community priorities.

Gunaikurnai Land and Waters Aboriginal Corporation (GLaWAC) represents Traditional Owners from the Brataualung, Brayakaulung, Brabralung, Krauatungalung and Tatungalung family clans. DELWP and other agencies work with GLaWAC to implement the Whole of Country plan objectives, including “We want to be actively managing the water, fire, wildlife and biodiversity on our Country, and helping others to also do this in a culturally appropriate way.” The Victorian Government and GLaWAC have a formal and ongoing partnership known as Joint Management where both share their knowledge and share the management of certain parks and reserves on Crown Land. In Gippsland, GLaWAC jointly manage 10 parks and reserves, working in partnership with Parks Victoria and FFMVic. Across the 3 years of the JFMP, Gippsland has 16 planned burns within joint management areas. Work will continue to deliver the Joint Management Plan objective to “Re-establish Gunaikurnai fire management knowledge and practices in Joint Management parks.”

In implementing the JFMP, FFMVic and CFA will work closely with the community. In relation to potential smoke impacts form planned burning, FFMVic will also work with the community in the broader Latrobe Valley Area. A Smoke Management Plan has been developed by FFMVic, Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Environment Protection Authority (EPA) and the CFA. Community groups are listed in the plan and are notified and engaged if the plan is required. The plan was first used in autumn 2017. Smoke Management Officers have been deployed to Incident Management Teams during significant smoke events in Gippsland to provide engagement support. This role was included as part of Gippsland’s planned burning program since 2015.

Community Based Bushfire Management (CBBM) is about communities and agencies working collaboratively, sharing and valuing knowledge, enabling communities to make informed decisions, and developing local solutions to reduce the bushfire risk. The focus of CBBM in Gippsland over the coming year will be around the Briagolong, Mallacoota and Latrobe Valley communities. In each of these areas, agencies are developing a close working relationship with the Shire Council, residents and community groups to develop Community Emergency Management Plans or other CBBM related projects.


Maintaining and enhancing Ecosystem ResilienceAn objective of the Code is to “maintain or improve the resilience of natural ecosystems and their ability to deliver services such as biodiversity, water, carbon storage and forest products” (the Code). Strategic bushfire management plans include consideration of ecosystem resilience at a strategic level over the long term, particularly how we can measure it. However, FFMVic is working towards developing a more detailed understanding of how planned burning might impact flora and fauna, and how we can use fire to maintain and enhance ecosystem resilience into the future.

A greater risk-based focus to operational planning has allowed Districts to improve consideration of ecosystem resilience.

Potential impacts on species and communities listed under the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) or the Victorian Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 (FFG Act) have been addressed at the operational review of the draft JFMP. Records of listed species from the Victorian Biodiversity Atlas were used to identify potential conflicts with proposed burns and works. Advice has been provided regarding the potential nature of any impacts, along with recommendations to eliminate, mitigate or minimise potential threats to these values during planned burning. FFMVic is currently developing a strategic assessment process to identify, assess and mitigate potential impacts of the planned burning program on Matters of National Environmental Significance.

Other objectives specific to the Gippsland RegionDuring the development of the Gippsland JFMP, several ecological principles were considered. These reflect a strategic approach to maintaining or improving ecosystem resilience and include:

Retaining long undisturbed vegetation in the landscape where risk reduction is not a priority Minimising burning areas in LMZ that are below minimum TFI Minimising burning vegetation types in LMZ that have a large extent across the landscape below

minimum TFI Avoiding burning areas with little bushfire risk reduction benefit Retaining long undisturbed habitat of fauna species with a preference for older vegetation Avoiding ignition and planned burning in Leadbeater’s Possum habitat Identifying methods to mitigate risk to biodiversity values during burn preparation and

implementation

SCHEDULE 3: NEW STRATEGIC FUELBREAKS 2018/19 - DELWP Lead Agency DELWP and Parks Victoria work together to establish and maintain a network of strategic fuelbreaks to expand the protection of communities, forests and parks from the risk of bushfire. A strategic fuelbreak is a strip of land where vegetation has been modified to reduce the amount of fuel available to burn during a bushfire. Strategic fuelbreaks are an important tool for fire management on public land. They provide a fuel-reduced area from which to conduct back burning ahead of an approaching bushfire or to assist in the implementation of a planned burn.

Machinery is used to clear vegetation generally within a 15-20-metre-wide strip. In some instances, this width could be up to 40m. Existing roads and tracks are considered part of the clearing. Where possible, overstorey trees are retained to provide shading and connection between the trees for wildlife and landscape values. The locations of strategic fuelbreaks are included for information only. These activities are approved via other DELWP and Parks Victoria processes. CFA strategic fuel breaks are included in Municipal Fire Management Plans.

Strategic fuel break maintenance is an annual program and included in Schedule 2 above.

GlossaryThis glossary provides information on terms contained within the body of this document and the schedules.

Burn Type – indicates the primary purpose of the burn including fuel reduction burn (FRB), ecological burn (ECO).

Burn Number and Name– the unique identifier for each burn or planned fuel management activity.

Cross-tenure burn – burns that cover both public and private land

Fire Management Zone (FMZ) – an area of public land in which fire is managed for specific asset, fuel and ecological objectives. Values included in this column can be APZ - Asset Protection Zone; BMZ – Bushfire Moderation Zone; LMZ - Landscape Management Zone, PBEZ – Planned Burn Exclusion Zone; or, NZ -Not Zoned.

Forest Fire Management Victoria (FFMVic) - is the organisation that delivers services to achieve DELWP’s legislated responsibilities. It consists of specialist staff from DELWP, Parks Victoria, Melbourne Water and VicForests.

Indicative Burn Season – indicates the preferred season in which the burn will be completed. Actual delivery may be any time of the year.

Land Manager – the organisation responsible for day-to-day management of the works site – DELWP (Department of Environment Land Water and Planning); PV (Parks Victoria).

Land Management Objective - identifies the desired land management outcome(s) of the burn.

Local Government Area (LGA) – the municipality in which the majority of the fuel management activity is located.

Location – a direction and distance of the planned burn from the nearest major township/locality.

Planned Burns - Planned burning is one of FFMVic and CFA’s most important fire prevention activities. It involves the controlled application of fire during periods of lower fire risk, to achieve one of three main purposes: fuel reduction, ecological management and forest regeneration.

It is important to understand that planned burning operations, particularly fuel reduction burns, do not stop or eliminate the risk of bushfires. However, Victorian research, and similar information from other parts of Australia and overseas, clearly shows that firefighters have a much better chance of managing bushfires in areas where fuel reduction burns have been carried out.

Approved burns in this year’s Plan will require a range of preparation works to make the planned area ready to ignite when the weather and other conditions are right. Preparation works may include, brushing up or grading of existing boundaries and internal tracks, management of hazardous trees, the construction and preparation of boundary and control lines with machinery and pest plant controls. The preparation works will have on-site inspections which will assess the surrounding assets and planned burn objectives.

Private Property Burn – burn that occurs wholly on private land.

Planned Burn Size – the maximum area of the fuel management activity measured in hectares (ha), including areas specifically excluded from disturbance.

Strategic Fuelbreak: A strategic fuelbreak is a strip of land where vegetation has been modified to reduce the amount of fuel available to burn during a bushfire.

New Burn– ‘NEW’ = New burn did not appear on last year’s FFMVic JFMP. Blank box = Not a new burn. Burn was approved in the previous (2017/18- 2019/20) Fire Operations Plan but has not been carried out, it is included in this JFMP and may be conducted at any time.

Non-Burn Fuel Treatments – Non burn fuel treatments such as the maintenance and construction of fire control lines, fire access tracks, fuel breaks, fire infrastructure and other fuel management activities are required to support the planned burning program. Treatments to achieve these works can include slashing, pruning, chemical application (in alignment with safety standards), grazing or other operations (such as ploughing, mulching or rolling) that may be more appropriate or practical in certain areas. For example, fuel on small areas or blocks located within townships may be treated mechanically, where burning is impractical. These methods may also be more suitable in certain vegetation types.
