Senior Sergeant Erwin Hoffmann, Deputy District Disaster Coordinator advises it is raining lightly now and it’s time for the Myth Buster…SES crews in the North Burnett region do not have helicopter food drops for people and pets! Residents in Mundubbera have been receiving false information from random callers claiming to be from SES. The truth is that self-sufficiency is the way to go with an emergency kit to last at least three days. SES and emergency services are ready to respond to what Tropical Cyclone Marcia may soon bring to the area. Hoax calls are not welcome and consequences do occur.
