PERMIT TO SET FIRE TO THE BUSH
Subject to the provisions of the Bush Fires Act 1954, and the
regulations made thereunder and to the due observance and performance of the
conditions endorsed on this permit including the provisions of section 18
of the said Act permission is hereby granted to Mr.......................,
of........................................., to set fire to the bush on
locations.........................................................................
on the............. day of.........................................

Dated this............. day of...................................
20.............
Note. — This permit is not valid during a declared
prohibited burning time and is issued subject to the provisions of
section 46 of the Bush Fires Act and may be revoked or suspended by a
bush fire control officer if, in his opinion, the fire, if lit, would become a
source of danger.
A bush fire control officer is not compelled to inspect an area to be burnt
before issuing a permit to burn. The onus lies on the person not only to comply
with the provisions of the Bush Fires Act but also to ensure there is no danger
of the fire escaping. The issue of this permit in no way affects that
responsibility.
Plan and any special conditions to be observed: —
Signed.........................................,
Bush Fire
Control Officer.
