Tintinara Hay Stack Fire
The SA Country Fire Service (CFS) have contained a hay stack fire 20 km south-west of the Tintinara township in the Upper South East of South Australia.
CFS firefighters together with farm fire units have contained this fire with support of heavy machinery which has created a break around the fire. A small hay shed, trailer, and approximately 1,200 hay bales have been lost. CFS crews supported by farm fire units will remain on scene for the next few days working to extinguish any remaining hot spots, with the fire expected to produce smoke for several days.
Smoke may be visible from surrounding areas. To ensure your safety and that of firefighting personnel please do not enter the area unless necessary.
The cause of the fire is unknown.
