Preparing and auditing LGA risk management plans developed using the DFES Bushfire Risk Management Systems (BRMS) methodology.
BRMP INPUT: We have an experienced BRMP practitioner who has worked within local government preparing BRMPs for a large Perth-based local government. Field fuel load assessment, data gathering, mapping input and review services are available on a contract basis.
BRMP AUDIT: As part of due diligence, LGAs often require independent third-party auditing of their BRMPs. We have experience in whole of Shire level review of fuel loads in the field, risk assessment, classifications and prioritisation of mitigation actions, and in reviewing the range of treatment options being considered.
LGA executive teams benefit from the reassurance provided by these independent audits and as a result, are more likely to attract external funding and to support their staff recommended actions during review and decision making by elected Councillors.

They include considerations of safety, critical infrastructure, built infrastructure and cultural and environmental heritage, vegetation type and fuel load, effective slope, separation distance, prevailing winds by season, fire run potential and fire containment potential.
