Change of Fire Season Status for Mid-South Canterbury

Notice is given that Fire and Emergency New Zealand has revoked the previously declared Restricted Fire Season from midnight WEDNESDAY 19 MAY 2021 in the following areas which are now in an Open Fire Season:
• OPEN FIRE SEASON for the High Country Zone Ashburton Coastal, Timaru Coastal and Waimate Coastal zones
This now means the whole area of the Mid-South Canterbury district from the Rakaia River to the Waitaki River, sea to the Alps is in an open fire season.
No permits are required for burning, however there is still an expectation that all outdoor burning is conducted in a safe manner.
RESTRICTED FIRE SEASON (PERMIT REQUIRED) for:
• Geraldine and Waimate Forest zones
A permit is required to light a fire in open air in these areas.
See www.checkitsalright.nz... to apply for a permit online or call 0800 658 628. You can also check for types of fire which have been authorised as not being fires in open air and do not need a permit.
You commit an offence if you knowingly or recklessly light, or allow another person to light, a fire in open air in an area that is in a Restricted Fire Season unless under a permit.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
-
9.5% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.5% I want to be able to choose.
-
47.1% Against. I want to deal with people.
Poll: Would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? 🌿🐦
Canterbury, you have a hidden treasure right on your doorstep ... though it does come with a 1.5-hour walk up the stunning Rakaia Gorge Walkway.
Along the trail you’ll find The Fantail Shop showcasing small artworks by local artisans. Even better, every purchase supports the Fantail Trust, helping protect and restore biodiversity on the north bank of the gorge.
So we’re curious: would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? (And for local biodiversity, of course 🌿)
-
31.5% Yes!
-
68.5% No thank you.
