Community Recovery Information for people impacted by the recent fires across Northern NSW can be found on this website under the "Documents" tab. Fires & Road closures: The Wallangarra fire continues to burn west of the Bruxner Highway in the Girraween, Bald Rock, Boonoo areas. Back burning may take place today to strengthen containment lines. Residents in the Jennings, Tenterfield, Bryans Gap and Black Swamp areas may see an increase in smoke today. The Bruxner Highway is open and Mount Lindesay Road is open with care. At Tabulam firefighters will continue to monitor and patrol the fireground and strengthen containment lines over coming days. If you are in the area of Leslie Creek Road, Sugarbag Road and Kims Way, monitor the situation and take advice from firefighters on the ground. The New England Highway is open and the Tenterfield evacuation centre remains open. The fires at Eukey, Harrigans Lane, Bookookoorara and Tooloom Gully are now under control. A message from the Tenterfield Shire Council said "Tenterfield Shire residents are being urged not to begin a major clean-up of properties effected by this week's bushfire because of concerns about possible contaminants, including asbestos. Mayor Peter Petty said "We appreciate the desire of residents to clean up their properties and get their lives back on track but we can't emphasise enough the importance of people working with authorities to protect the well-being of everyone involved" Organisations with appropriate expertise in property and asbestos assessment, and making the property safe, will be deployed as circumstances allow. If you are insured, please contact your insurer before commencing any clean-up as you may need to take photographs or video footage as evidence. Council organised information nights will be held by the Tenterfield Shire Council today at Drake at 5pm at the Lunatic Hotel, at Wallangarra at 7pm on Friday at the School of Arts, and at Tabulam Hall on Wednesday the 27th at 6pm.
