First Responders – Change in fire seasons for Northland

Fire seasons are changing in Northland as at 8am Monday 14 Dec The whole of the Far North, Whangarei and Kaipara districts are moving to a restricted fire season. This means a permit may be required to light a fire and, if granted a permit, you will be required to follow the conditions listed. Limestone Island in Whangarei Harbour will be in a prohibited fire season. This means no open-air fires are allowed on the Island. The private use of fireworks is also banned in the Karikari peninsula and Ahipara township – including the surrounding areas. Principal Rural Fire Officer Myles Taylor says the season changes and banning of private use of fireworks have been prompted by the hot, dry and windy conditions.
