GEG has written to ministers, #FFMV, ParksVic, #GLaWAC requesting investigation into dangerous failures of initial burn.
Now Balmers Break is back on 10 day schedule- #FFMV wants to burn 87 ha more. plannedburns.ffm.vic.gov.au/burn-site/62...
Demand pause of burn until investigation is complete 🧵

Balmers Break- Lake Tyers State Park- 5.3.2025
Disastrous 35ha Hot #FFMV burn www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=...
Over 100 large habitat trees down. Many chopped down by crews *during* the blaze.
Q: Is pressure from #FFMV head office, to ratchet up plan burns, leading to increasingly dangerous ops?

#FFMV lit 2 "planned" burns (620H approx),
Wonnangatta Valley on a hot windy day. The burns got away, now out of control, at least 1504H, in Alpine National Park. FFMV removed the burns from their planned burn site. Now just on vic emergency site emergency.vic.gov.au/respond/

And here's some of that Tassie old growth, fresh off the boat, speeding up the Princes Hwy on way to a Gippsland sawmill ...most likely to be turned into single use pallets. What a disgrace that taxpayers are paying for this crude sickening destruction.
