A fire plan contains key information about an estate or farm to assist with wildfire suppression operations. They can be used by both public and private estates. A copy of the fire plan will be provided to the Northumberland Fire and Rescue Service to be used in the event of a wildfire.

A fire plan contains key information for assisting both land managers and the Fire and Rescue Service with wildfire suppression operations, including:

• Estate contact details
• Neighboring landowner contact details
• Access points
• Sater sources
• Rendezvous points
• Available resources
• Priority areas
• Important Hazards
• Communications capabilities
• Insurance coverage

120,000 hectares of Northumberland are covered by a standard NFG fire plan
