The most devastating bush fire season in the state’s history officially ends

With the coronavirus pandemic dominating headlines, the official end to the State’s bushfire season passed almost unnoticed, with a very clear warning from fire authorities not to become complacent as the next bushfire season looms.

March 31 marked the official end to the most devastating bush fire season in the state’s history.

Central Coast Rural Fire Service District Superintendent, Viki Campbell, said the region had been fortunate to sustain relatively little damage in the face of bushfire threats from the Three Mile Fire and smaller blazes, including at Charmhaven and Wangi, in the peak of the season, from December, 2019 to January, 2020.
