Fire
The Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) is involved in both the suppression of wildfires and the use of fire to achieve land management objectives in all the varied environments of the State - the tropical savannas of the north, the woodlands and grasslands of the arid interior, the woodlands, heaths and mallee of the Wheatbelt and south coast, and the forests of the south-west. In order to achieve suitable fire protection, land management and conservation outcomes, we have developed comprehensive fire management systems and maintain state of the art fire management equipment and technologies. The Department has access to well trained professional fire managers and undertakes internationally recognised scientific studies into fire related topics to constantly increase the knowledge available to fire practitioners.
