Important information for subscribers to bushfire SMS service

Published on Monday, 7 April 2025 at 2:23:30 PM

We recently discovered an issue with our SMS messaging system that prevented the delivery of an update regarding the change from Prohibited to Restricted burning period.

As part of a recent system upgrade, an unexpected technical issue caused the loss of subscriber information. This means that if you were previously receiving Fire Danger Ratings, Fire Bans and Burning Period alert via SMS, you will need to resubscribe to continue receiving these important updates.

We want to reassure you that your personal information has not been accessed or compromised. The issue was purely a technical fault, and we are actively working on improving our messaging system to ensure more reliable communication in the future.

To stay informed throughout the fire season, please take a moment to resubscribe here.

For assistance with your subscription, please contact our Community Safety and Emergency Management team via (08) 9290 6666 or email fse@mundaring.wa.gov.au. Your safety is our priority, and we appreciate your understanding as we work to improve our services.
