Rising bushfire threat, but Illawarra’s preparations are behind schedule

The Illawarra region is facing an increasing bushfire threat, but unfortunately, the preparations to mitigate this threat are behind schedule. According to local fire authorities, there is a very fine line between conditions being too dry to burn and the ideal window for conducting necessary preventative measures.

Mr. Cavanagh, a spokesperson for the fire authorities, highlighted the urgency of the situation, stating, “As soon as we get that window then boom we’ll get in there.” This indicates that the authorities are waiting for the right conditions to start executing their plans.

However, the article does not provide specific details regarding the reasons for the delay in preparations. It simply emphasizes the need for timely action to ensure the safety and well-being of the Illawarra community.
