12 October reminder: Total Fire Ban covers Campbelltown and Camden
NSW RFS lists an Extreme fire danger rating and Total Fire Ban for Greater Sydney on Monday 12 October 2026, including Campbelltown and Camden.
Menangle Park is in the Campbelltown council area, so the NSW Rural Fire Service’s Greater Sydney Total Fire Ban for Monday 12 October 2026 applies to local households. The RFS also lists an Extreme fire danger rating for the region, with Camden among the council areas covered.
During a Total Fire Ban, outdoor barbecues and pizza ovens burning solid fuel such as wood, charcoal or heat beads cannot be used, and fire permits are suspended. Electric and gas barbecues have specific conditions: read the RFS’s full rules before using one.
This reminder records conditions for 12 October 2026 only. Check the RFS’s live ratings and bans page for subsequent days.
