THE Autumn 2015 Firewood Collection Season will today close across Victoria.
Jon Rofe, from the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP), said it was important the community adheres to these rules.
“We want to remind people that, from 1 July, all designated firewood collection areas will be closed over the winter period,” he said.
“It won’t be legal for people to collect firewood on public land until the start of the Spring Firewood Collection Season.”
The public will be able to start collecting firewood again from designated firewood collection areas from 1 September.
DELWP and Parks Victoria staff will be patrolling parks, forests and reserves during winter to ensure people are doing the right thing.

Any information about the illegal removal of firewood for sale can be reported to DELWP on 136 186 and quote Operation Chainsaw.
