South Greenville Fire District

Recently we received notification from FEMA that we were awarded a federal grant to help build a new fire station in the Matrix Industrial Park off of Augusta Rd.  This grant was part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act which was available to all fire departments in the United States.  The department was awarded close to $1 million dollars to build a "GREEN" fire station.  This fire station will be a one of a kind in South Carolina. It will be South Greenville's first certified LEED building, which stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. This is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high-performance green buildings. Construction is planned to begin in a few weeks, check back for updates.

We have just recently opened our new Station 3 on Fork Shoals Rd.  The new location is just down Fork Shoals Rd on the other side of the Southern Connector interchange from our old Station. 

 In February 2010 the South Greenville Fire District in conjunction with DHEC received a grant for 100 smoke detectors through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.  These smoke detectors are available to the residents of our district through our Fire Marshal's Office and will be delivered and installed in the home.  The target group that these smoke detectors are available for is senior adults 62 and over, households with small children that do not own an operational smoke detector, homes with residents that have disabilities, or anyone in need of a smoke detector.  You can contact Fire Marshal Nathan Murtaugh at 864-243-5654 if you need a smoke detector in your home.
