A MAN has been charged with deliberately lighting vegetation fires in Tasmania just weeks after the state's worst blazes in half a century.
The 34-year-old from Ulverstone in the state's northwest has been charged with lighting several fires in the area earlier this month, police say.
"Police would like to thank the members of the public who provided valuable information and assistance in this matter and would like to speak to any additional witnesses who may have information regarding these fires," a statement said.
Bushfires hit Tasmania again last week, the worst at Molesworth in the Derwent Valley northwest of Hobart.
They came just a month after nearly 200 properties were destroyed, most near the Tasman Peninsula in the state's south.
Little damage was reported but firefighters from interstate were called in to help Tasmania's weary crews.
The Molesworth fire continues to attract an advice level warning from the Tasmania Fire Service.
