Planned Burn Taskforce
The Planned Burn Taskforce is a Safer Together state-wide program which deploys available CFA
volunteers to planned burns to districts in need of personnel. CFA members register with the Planned
Burn Taskforce and are deployed to assist with planned burning when requested.
They can come from a number of Districts to form up a single Taskforce for deployment.
PBTF provides human resources to support districts undertaking a planned burn when conditions are
favourable.
Members contain a variety of skill sets. Some have extensive burning experience and others have
recently completed GFF.
PBTF is available for deployment anywhere within the State, for periods up to 5 days inclusive of travel.
