Triangle Fire Department

We just wanted to thank our community members for supporting us this weekend, especially the Pilgrim Reformed congregation, and our mutual aid brothers! We couldn’t do it without you all.

Due to increased wildfire risk, the N.C. Forest Service has issued a ban on all open burning and has canceled all burning permits statewide effective 6 p.m. Saturday, March 28 until further notice.

Under North Carolina law, the ban prohibits all open burning in the affected counties, regardless of whether a permit was previously issued. The issuance of any new permits has also been suspended until the ban is lifted. Anyone violating the burn ban faces a $100 fine plus $183 court costs. Any person responsible for setting a fire may be liable for any expenses related to extinguishing the fire.

The burn ban does not apply to fires started within 100 feet of an occupied dwelling. The local fire marshal has authority to issue a burn ban within those 100 feet.

Saturdays are for training, especially with our brothers from Holly Grove Fire Department!

It sure is getting deep out there, just a reminder that unless it is absolutely necessary, please do not drive. This Camaro tried to go up the hill in front of our station, spinning out onto our front pad. We were able to help the driver to our gravel parking area and are keeping them warm till other transportation arrives.

Below is list of the Davidson County Warming Stations and their hours and dates of operation. We will update you if additional Stations are added. Please be safe!
