Land class fencing, sediment fences, stock containment areas, wildlife fences, BlazeAid, and DELWP's rehabilitation policy for repair of fences damaged by fire and fire control lines.
Land class fencing
After a fire there is an opportunity to re-think a property's layout, including internal fence lines and renewing internal fences by land classes. Doing a whole farm plan course may assist with this process.

Stock containment areas
A stock containment area is carefully selected, fenced section of a property that is set up to periodically hold,feed and water livestock. Stock containment areas are primarily used to protect soil and pastures during adverse seasons such as droughts, and after fires.
