Brush Fires

The Coastal Georgia area has a moderate to high fire danger rating as shown in Georgia Forestry's Fire Danger Rating Map. It is therefore no surprise that I've heard a good bit of brush fire activity on our area's Fire Department talkgroups. This week I've heard fires in the Pooler, Bloomingdale, and Effingham County areas.

Chatham County Fire Tac 1 (TG 3632) has been used for fires in Bloomingdale and Pooler, with units from Bloomingdale, Garden City, Pooler, Port Wentworth, Southside Fire, and Georgia Forestry invovled.

Effingham Incident Channels have been used for fires in various parts of the county with units from Effingham County Fire-Rescue, Rincon FD, Guyton FD, and Georgia Forestry involved.
