Fireworks displays will soon light the night skies as communities throughout the Coastal Empire prepare for annual 4th of July celebrations. Fireworks and Independence Day go hand-in-hand and Savannah firefighters want all citizens to enjoy a safe and fire-free July 4th celebration.
Georgia law (O.C.G.A 25-10-1 Regulation of Fireworks) bans the possession and use of fireworks in the state. The Georgia legislature has defined illegal fireworks as any object that propels itself or a projectile – such as bottle rockets and roman candles – and any item that produces a report (“bang”) – such as firecrackers and bottle rockets. Generally, any type of sparkler, sparkling shower, and whirling shower items are permitted under Georgia law.
Savannah firefighters encourage citizens to follow safety precautions and to read a follow all label warnings and instructions before using any type of fireworks.
Savannah Fire Chief Charles G. Middleton urges everyone to play it safe around legal fireworks, especially stressing the need for adult supervision of children. “Be a responsible parent and protect your children,” says Middleton, who urges parents to purchase legal fireworks from Georgia retailers who sell items in compliance with state law.
The purchase of fireworks at neighboring state retailers is discouraged, as those retailers have no burden to comply with Georgia laws. The fireworks purchased from these retailers may actually be illegal in Georgia.
The ultimate safety precaution is for citizens to forego the backyard variety of fireworks celebrations and instead enjoy one of the many professionally staged fireworks displays. Savannah’s celebration is scheduled for Thursday night, July 4th on River Street.
