On Wednesday evening the Shallotte Point Fire Department was invited to conduct walkthroughs at Creekview Landing by Dream Finders Homes. This training gave our members the ability to look at several different homes in different building phases for our members to learn and get a better understanding of the building construction coming to our response district. We want to thank Dream Finders Home for this opportunity.

Burn Ban Now in Effect 🚫🔥

The Brunswick County Fire Marshal is issuing a burn ban for the unincorporated areas within Brunswick County as of 8 a.m. Saturday, March 28, 2026. Read online: https://ow.ly/tnvO50YA2w9

Current and future weather forecast models indicate conditions that are not favorable to open burning, particularly due to increasing wind and fire danger risks for this weekend.

All burning within 100 feet of any structure is banned within the unincorporated areas of Brunswick County. An unincorporated area is an area not within a city or town’s limits. If you are located in a city or town, contact your local municipal official related to the burn ban.

The burn ban does not apply to any open burning permits issued by the N.C. Forest Service.

All open burning of natural vegetation outside 100 feet of an occupied dwelling requires a permit from the North Carolina Forest Service. In addition, the NC Dept of Environmental Quality may require additional permits for certain types and locations of burning.

The burn ban will remain in place until conditions improve. Brunswick County will send out a notice when it is lifted and/or to communicate any necessary safety updates related to the burn ban. For questions about the burn ban, contact the Brunswick County Fire Marshal’s Office at 910.253.2041 or visit BrunswickCountyNC.gov/FireMarshal
