Bushfire WATCH AND ACT for southern part of TANAMI in the SHIRE OF
HALLS CREEK
A bushfire WATCH AND ACT is in place for people in or around the
Ngulupi Community, Killi Community, and Coyote minesite, as well as
people travelling along the Tanami Road in the Kearney Aboriginal
Reserve and Tanami Desert in southern parts of TANAMI in the SHIRE
OF HALLS CREEK.
The alert level for this fire has been upgraded as weather
conditions have deteriorated.
There is a possible threat to lives and homes as a fire is
approaching in the area and conditions are changing.
WHAT TO DO
If you are not prepared or you plan to leave, leave now if the way
is clear.
If you are well prepared and plan to actively defend your home,
make final preparations now.
If you plan to stay and actively defend, do not rely on mains
water pressure as it may be affected. You need to have access to an
independent water supply, and start patrolling your property to put
out spot fires.
Keep doors and windows closed and turn off evaporative air
conditioners, but keep water running through the system if
possible.
If you are not at home, do not try to return as conditions in the
area could be very dangerous.
