Bushfire threat to WA community eases

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 06 November 2013 | 12.22

RESIDENTS at a remote Aboriginal community in Western Australia are no longer being threatened by bushfire, after authorities managed to contain the blaze.

A watch and act warning had been issued for people in the Muludja community, 20 kilometres east of Fitzroy Crossing in the western Kimberley.

But about midday WST, emergency authorities said the fire burning alongside Margaret River towards the community was now being held within containment lines.

There is now no threat to lives or homes but there is a lot of smoke in the area.

The bushfire is now moving slowly in a southern direction, and is contained but not controlled.

Eighteen career and volunteer firefighters from six brigades have been working to establish and strengthen containment lines.

The firefighters are being supported by crew and appliances from Gogo and Fossil Downs Stations.

A helicopter from Gogo Station is also providing support from the air.
