Our team conducts detailed Fuel Hazard Assessments to evaluate the type, structure, and condition of vegetation that contributes to bushfire behaviour. These assessments are essential for understanding site specific bushfire risk and informing mitigation strategies.
We specialise in delivering Overall Fuel Hazard Assessments (OFHAs) that support land managers and local and state governments to make informed decisions around fire mitigation, ecological management, and long-term reserve planning. Our assessments help prioritise treatment areas, guide planned burn programs, and contribute to safer, more sustainable land use across bushfire prone landscapes.
Backed by experienced practitioners and fire behaviour expertise, our assessments give you a practical understanding of fuel hazards not just as a compliance measure, but as a foundation for better bushfire risk management, planning, and mitigation across the landscape.
With deep expertise in bushfire behaviour and landscape-scale risk assessment, we help land managers understand current fuel loads, identify high-risk areas, and develop proactive mitigation strategies. Whether you’re planning ecological burns, updating a reserve management plan, or reviewing long-term fuel reduction works our assessments provide the clarity and confidence needed to manage bushfire risk effectively and responsibly.
Why Work With Us?
Trusted by Land Managers & Local Governments
We regularly partner with LGAs, landowners, and environmental managers to assess fuel hazards across reserves, helping them meet management obligations while balancing environmental values and public safety. We also offer training in Overall Fuel Hazard Assessment methodology and in the practical application of the assessment work.
Applied Fire Behaviour Expertise
Our consultants combine field based experience with a strong grasp of bushfire science, allowing us to assess fuel loads in a way that reflects actual risk on the ground.
Clear Assessments with outcome focused reporting
Our reports are technically sound and structured to ensure reliability and credibility, supporting internal policy development, audit processes, and informed land management decisions. We deliver practical, informed recommendations and mitigation strategies to help reduce fuel hazards and guide effective bushfire planning outcomes.
Supports Long Term Planning
Overall Fuel Hazard Assessments play a key role in shaping reserve management plans, guiding prescribed burn programs, and informing environmental offset strategies. We use this detailed fuel hazard information to prepare tailored reserve management plans that effectively address bushfire risk. Our work ensures integration with broader bushfire mitigation efforts, strategic land use planning, and community bushfire risk reduction initiatives.
