Celebrate Safely This July 4th in Fayette County!

The Fourth of July is a time for celebration, community, and summer fun! As we gear up for parades, barbecues, and fireworks, it's crucial to remember that safety should always be our top priority. Here in Fayette County, we want everyone to have a memorable and safe holiday.

Here are some important safety tips to keep in mind for fireworks, grilling, water activities, and our beloved pets:

Fireworks Safety: Leave it to the Professionals or Be Extra Cautious!

While consumer fireworks are legal in Georgia, they can be extremely dangerous if not handled properly. The safest way to enjoy fireworks is to attend a professional display put on by experts.

If you do plan to use consumer fireworks at home, remember:

  • Know the Law: In Georgia, fireworks are permitted from 10:00 AM to 11:59 PM on most days. However, on July 3rd and July 4th, they are permitted until 1:00 AM. Be mindful of noise ordinances and your neighbors.

  • Adult Supervision is Key: Never allow young children to handle fireworks, including sparklers. Older children should only use them under close adult supervision.

  • Wear Eye Protection: The person lighting fireworks should always wear safety glasses.

  • No Alcohol and Fireworks: Alcohol and fireworks do not mix. Designate a sober adult to handle all fireworks.

  • Outdoor Use Only: Use fireworks outdoors in a clear area, far away from homes, structures, vehicles, dry grass, and anything else that could catch fire.

  • Have Water Handy: Keep a bucket of water or a charged hose nearby in case of fire.

  • Light One at a Time: Light only one firework at a time and then quickly move to a safe distance.

  • Never Relight a "Dud": If a firework doesn't go off, do not try to relight it. Wait 20 minutes, then soak it in a bucket of water.

  • Proper Disposal: After use, soak all spent and unused fireworks in water for several hours before discarding them in a metal trash can away from any buildings or combustible materials.

  • No Homemade Fireworks: Never experiment with homemade or illegal fireworks – they are extremely dangerous.

  • Illegal Discharge: Fireworks may NOT be discharged within 100 yards of a nuclear plant or a business which sells or refines gasoline products. They are also not permitted on City or State property without written permission, or indoors.

Grilling Safety: Savor the Flavor, Avoid the Fire!

Barbecues are a Fourth of July staple, but grills can pose fire hazards if not used correctly.

  • Outdoor Use Only: Grills are designed for outdoor use. Never grill indoors or in a garage.

  • Safe Distance: Place your grill at least 10 feet away from your home, deck railings, trees, and any other combustible materials.

  • Stable Surface: Ensure your grill is on a flat, stable surface to prevent tipping.

  • Clean Your Grill: Regularly clean your grill to remove grease and fat buildup, which can cause flare-ups.

  • Never Leave Unattended: Always supervise a lit grill.

  • Children and Pets Away: Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the grilling area.

  • Charcoal Safety: If using charcoal, only use charcoal starter fluid. Never add lighter fluid to already ignited coals. Dispose of cooled coals in a metal container, away from anything that can burn.

  • Have a Plan: Keep a fire extinguisher or a bucket of sand/water nearby.

Water Safety: Make a Splash, Stay Safe!

With summer heat, water activities are popular. Be vigilant to prevent accidents.

  • Constant Supervision: Actively supervise children in and around water, giving them your undivided attention. Designate a "water watcher" who is solely responsible for monitoring swimmers.

  • Life Jackets: Children, inexperienced swimmers, and all boaters should wear properly fitted, U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets.

  • Swim Sober: Avoid alcohol and drugs when swimming or supervising water activities.

  • Learn to Swim: Ensure all family members know how to swim and basic water survival skills.

  • No Diving in Shallow Water: Always check water depth before diving.

  • Secure Pool Barriers: If you have a pool, ensure it's surrounded by a secure fence with a self-locking gate.

Pet Safety: Keep Your Furry Friends Calm and Secure!

The loud noises of fireworks can be terrifying for pets. Take steps to keep them safe and comfortable.

  • Keep Pets Indoors: The safest place for your pets during fireworks is inside a secure, quiet room.

  • Create a Safe Space: Provide a comfortable, dark, and quiet space for them, such as a crate or an interior room with closed windows and doors.

  • Distraction: Use background noise like a TV or soft music to help mask the sound of fireworks.

  • Proper Identification: Ensure your pets have up-to-date ID tags on their collars and are microchipped with current contact information, in case they get out.

  • Avoid Crowds and BBQs: Keep pets away from crowded gatherings, hot grills, and hazardous foods or drinks.

  • Consult Your Vet: If your pet has severe anxiety, talk to your veterinarian about calming aids or medications.

Let's all work together to make this Fourth of July a safe and joyous occasion for everyone in Fayette County! Have a wonderful and responsible holiday!

  • Come to full stops at intersections.

  • Avoid texting while driving through the neighborhood.
