Cabarlah Sports Ground Lot 696 Shostaki Road, Cabarlah Qld Crows Nest Sports Ground Recreation Terrace and New England Highway, Crows Nest QldAn NSP is a local open space or building where people may gather, as a last resort, to seek shelter from a bushfire. Use of an NSP may be your contingency plan when:
• Your Bushfire Survival Plan has failed.• Your plan was to stay but the extent of the fire means that your home cannot withstand
the impact of the fire and therefore your home is not a safe place to shelter.• The fire at ‘extreme’ or ‘catastrophic’ level and voluntary evacuation is safest option.
