SC FORESTRY COMMISSION ISSUING STATEWIDE BURNING BAN

COLUMBIA—The South Carolina Forestry Commission is issuing a State Forester’s Burning Ban for all counties, effective at 6 p.m. today.

A State Forester’s Burning Ban prohibits all outdoor burning, including yard debris burning, prescribed burning, campfires, bonfires and other recreational fires in all unincorporated areas of the state.

Forestry Commission officials say weather conditions over the next several days present a greatly elevated risk of wildfire. The high winds and gusts that prompted the agency to issue a Red Flag Fire Alert yesterday are expected to persist across the state through the weekend.

Additionally, extremely low relative humidities – reaching below 30% in most areas – add to the fire danger.

“The combination of gusty winds and low relative humidity is a recipe for wildfires igniting easily and spreading rapidly,” said SCFC Fire Chief Darryl Jones, “especially when you add to the mix the abundance of dry, late-winter fuels on the ground.”

The ban will stay in effect until further notice, which will come in the form of an official announcement from the Forestry Commission.

Just a friendly reminder:

We haven't had any measurable rain fall in quite some time, so please be mindful of that when you decide to light off your fireworks. The vegetation is extremely dry and it will not take much to ignite it.

Our Beginnings

Holly Springs Fire Department

Oconee County, South Carolina

In July of 2016 the idea of starting a volunteer fire department to serve the Holly Springs Community from what was at the time a substation was born. With the help of Travis Collins, Mike Wilbanks, Sawyer Gambrell, and County Fire Chief Charlie King, this idea became a concept. On September 19, 2016 an informational meeting was held at the substation, and 13 residents from the community attended, and eight of those completed membership applications that night. A follow-up meeting was held on October 13, 2016, and four more completed membership applications. On November 10, 2016 the first official training session was held.
