Long Plains Incident Update

ISSUED FOR LONG PLAINS

The SA Country Fire Service (CFS) advises people in and around the Long Plains area of the Adelaide Plains that a large amount of smoke is visible to the wider area.

The cause of the smoke is due to a large hay shed fire. CFS has crews at the hay shed fire and will remain in scene until the fire is extinguished. This is expected to be for at least the next 48 hours. The fire is not expected to break away from the shed and pose any threat to the community.

As a precaution residents in the area who suffer from respiratory or cardiac conditions may wish to consider closing all doors and windows and remain indoors.
