The current Heather and grass burning season in Wales will end in upland areas on 31 March and ended elsewhere on 15 March. Upland areas are defined as land in the Severely Disadvantaged Area or Less Favoured Area.
In Wales, there is a requirement to complete a Burning Management Plan for all proposed fires. Information about the legal requirements and guidance on safe burning can be found in the Heather and Grass Burning Code for Wales. A copy, together with the Burning Management Plan Template, can be downloaded from the Welsh Assembly Government’s website.
I would be very interested to hear from anyone who is burning in Wales about how they view the Heather & Grass Burning Code and the Burning Plan Template. Is the system working well or would some changes improve the system.
