January 9, 2013<\/strong><\/p>\n

Queensland Parks and Wildlife staff and one rural fire crew are currently monitoring a slow-burning fire at Wengenville in the foothills of the Bunya Mountains.<\/p>\n

An Emergency Services spokesman said the fire was reported at 3:00pm.<\/p>\n

It is burning slowly along a 200m front near Wengen Creek Road in QPWS land.<\/p>\n

Earlier today, three fire crews extinguished a small grass fire burning near Okeden Road at Speedwell.<\/p>\n

This fire was reported at 11:24am and was out by 2:36pm.<\/p>\n

A small fire this morning at Ellesmere North Road at Haly Creek has also also been controlled.<\/p>\n

Crews were also called out today to small fires at Peron Road near Brooklands and McLucas Street, Murgon.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 5:15pm:<\/strong> QPWS Regional Director South West Rob Murphy said QPWS crews were attending the wildfire burning on the eastern side of Bunya Mountains National Park, near Wengen Creek.<\/p>\n

The cause of the fire was unknown.<\/p>\n

He said the fire is currently burning within containment lines and there is a well-graded firebreak between the park and neighbouring properties.<\/p>\n

“QPWS crews will undertake backburning this evening in an effort to contain the fire and prevent it spreading to adjoining property,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
