On Sunday April 18, NSW RFS volunteers will be undertaking a small hazard reduction burn on the western side of the Princes Highway, south of Ulladulla in the vicinity of Canberra Crescent.

Forecast light southeasterly winds will help to keep smoke away from the highway and neighbouring homes.

If weather conditions become unfavourable on the day, the hazard reduction burn will be postponed.

Meanwhile, many local residents have been carrying out their own burns with the recent end of the bushfire danger period.

The RFS would like to remind residents about "checklist" they need to follow before they start burning.
