Be Ready for Foul Weather

Take an active role in preparation

With the possibility of storms from the south, farmers should check that:

1. They have adequate levels of fuel in their backup generators, trucks and farm implements.
2. Spouting and gutters are clear.
3. Culverts and other road crossings are clear of debris and free flowing.
4. Drainage and containment structures are clear of any refuse and debris.
5. Review/check emergency call phone lists, fire extinguishers, flashlights and smoke detectors.
