Aircraft are being used to support wildland firefighting efforts on multiple wildfires in our state right now. Wildfires are a no-drone zone.

It’s illegal to fly a drone near or over a wildfire in North Carolina.

N.C.G.S. §15A-300.4 -- No person, entity, or State agency shall use an unmanned aircraft system within either a horizontal distance of 3,000 feet or a vertical distance of 3,000 feet from any forest fire within the jurisdiction of the North Carolina Forest Service.

Firefighting aircraft that respond to wildfires fly low in support of ground personnel. Drones can pose a serious threat to pilot and public safety. A drone that disrupts air operations also puts firefighters, residents and property at risk of loss to wildfire.

Remember, wildfires are a no-drone zone. If you fly, we can’t.

Please don’t burn. The wind should be enough of a deterrent but……🥴

🔥 HEADS UP: High Fire Danger has returned to most of the state, a result of abnormally dry fuel conditions further exacerbated by high temperatures low relative humidity, and gusty SW winds of 10-25MPH, resulting in high fire danger across most of North Carolina! This will continue this afternoon and into Sunday.

Fire fuels could easily ignite and spread rapidly in these conditions. Residents and visitors to the area are urged to properly dispose of cigarette butts, matches, and any other flammable items in appropriate containers. Exercise caution if operating any equipment that could create sparks, and keep vehicles off dry leaves and grass.

3/14 Marine Regiment Live Field Artillery Firing, June 1-12
The 3rd Battalion, 14th Marine Regiment will conduct live-fire training from June 1-12 on Fort Bragg for their certifications, command post exercise and line-fire training.
During this time, the Marines will fire significant amounts of ammunition from howitzers.
Field Artillery units from the 82nd Airborne Division will also be training throughout the month of June, resulting in loud explosions and reverberations that are often heard outside the installation.
While engaged in simulated combat conditions, all Field Artillery units will comply with existing requirements that prohibit them from massing fires larger than battalion size between the hours of 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. daily or from firing during the hours of 10 a.m. to noon on Sundays. There will be nighttime firing, as this is essential to maintain force readiness, but the quantity of rounds fired during hours of darkness is reduced.
