Bush Fire Prone Lands Map

A bushfire prone area is an area of land that can support a bushfire or is likely to be subject to bushfire attack.

The Campbelltown Bush fire Prone Lands Map classifies bush fire hazards and associated buffer zones within the Campbelltown Local Government Area (LGA).

New development on areas identified as bush fire prone are subject to the development and planning controls of the RFS Planning for Bush Fire Protection and must be designed to improve the survivability of the development and the occupants that are exposed to a bush fire hazard.

What does the map identify?

The Bush Fire Prone Land Map identifies land under the following categories:

• Category 1 vegetation is considered to be the highest risk for bush fire and is represented as red on the map, with a 100 metre buffer.
• Category 2 vegetation is represented as light orange on the map and is given a 30 metre buffer. This vegetation is considered to be lower risk than either Category 1 or Category 3 vegetation.
• Category 3 vegetation is considered to be medium bush fire risk vegetation and is represented as dark orange on the map with a 30 metre buffer.
• Vegetation buffers are shown as yellow.
