A prescribed hazard reduction burn is scheduled for today, subject to suitable weather and fuel moisture conditions.

Experienced ACT Parks and Conservation Service fire managers will conduct and oversee the burning operations happening in Lyneham Ridge Nature Reserve.

While efforts are made to conduct burns in weather conditions that will minimise the impact of smoke, temporary smoke cover is possible and may be visible across parts of Canberra.

Smoke, flame, and glowing embers may be seen at this site, with the public asked not to call emergency triple-zero unless they see any unattended fire.

Fire crews will be on the ground monitoring and patrolling the prescribed burn to its conclusion.
