Victoria Bushfire Control Move From Melbourne Conference
A Melbourne conference decided to deploy a unified fire control plan for large country fires. A CSIRO led panel noted weaknesses in line fighting and agreed one-man control would shift among the Metropolitan Fire Brigade, Country Fire Authority, or Forests Commission depending on fire type. Fire authorities reported a quiet day with high temperatures in the mid 70s and rain in the Mallee. The Lorne fire was contained after two days. Last month Victoria endured its driest December in 20 years.
