2022 NJ wildfire season: two small brush fires (late Feb 2022)

Local fire companies and the New Jersey Forest Fire Service are always ready to go and fight brush fires, no matter how small. Two such brush fires occurred over the last few days, both were extinguished. In both cases, the local municipal fire department responded first with the New Jersey Forest Fire Service coming to the scene along with other nearby local fire companies. Kudos to the all who responded to these two brush fires, thank-you for your service and for keeping us safe.

On February 18th there was a seven-acre brush fire in Lebanon Township. The Lebanon Township Fire Department responded, they were assisted by the New Jersey Forest Fire Service with mutual aide from other nearby fire companies.

 


On February 20th, the Lakehurst Fire Department responded to a  two-acre fire with the assistance of the New Jersey Forest Fire Service and mutual aide from other nearby fire companies.
