CFA operations manager Geoff McGill said there were no longer any warnings for the area with no smoke or potential threats of danger. 

He estimated the grassfire to have been about 30 hectares, but contained to paddocks.

He said the fire started after a planned burn from members got out of control.

During the response, a Rokewood fire truck caught alight, but Mr McGill said the cause of that fire was undetermined. 

He said no members had been injured and believed the fire had something to do with the electrics at the front of the truck.

There was no other damage to property and no injuries. 

Mr McGill described the response as a “good coordinated effort” with crews responding quickly and being proactive in calling in extra resources to help gain control of the grassfire.

He said the fire was a timely reminder of fire safety as the danger period starts. 

Update, 2.55pm: CFA operations manager Geoff McGill is en route to the scene.

While he did not know the size of the fire, he said it was now under control. 

He said 12 units had helped contain the blaze and one aircraft.

He said one of the reasons he was attending the scene was because of reports a fire truck had been affected in the fire.

He was not yet sure how badly affected the truck was and said his job was to find out why and to ensure the units were safe. 

2.35pm: A “watch and act” alert has been issued for an out-of-control grassfire at Corindhap.

A total of 11 fire crews are currently fighting the blaze, although they have been unable to get it under control.

Firefighters have been unable to stop the spread of the fire and it is heading a north-westerly direction towards Dereel.

The CFA has warned people in the area to leave.

“Don't wait, leaving now is the safest option - conditions may change and get worse very quickly. Emergency Services may not be able to help you if you decide to stay,” a message on the CFA website reads.

If you are currently driving slow down and turn on your headlights; smoke will make it difficult to see. 

If you have time, check your neighbours to see if they are monitoring conditions. 

If you're in a car and become caught in a grassfire, don't get out and run.

The best protection from radiant heat is distance.

The home of family or friends that are away from the warning area.

When you leave remember to take your pets, mobile phone and medications.

If you encounter smoke or flames whilst travelling, turn around and drive to safety. If you're unable to turn around and drive to safety, a car offers more protection from the fire’s heat than being caught on foot in the open.

Keep the roads clear so emergency services can respond.

If you are away from home do not return.

If you stay, seek shelter indoors: 

Bring your pets indoors.

Close all exterior doors, windows and vents and turn off cooling systems.

Shelter in a room that has a door and or a window to the outside so you can keep an eye on what is happening with the fire.
