PROCEDURES FOR ESTABLISHING A FIREWORKS PROHIBITED ZONE

Horry County does not have the authority to regulate fireworks on public property, without a request from an adjoining property owner, lessee or managing authority. Keep in mind that this request only deals with the “discharging” of fireworks, not where they land.

  1. The owner, lessee or managing authority must file a Discharge of Fireworks Prohibited Agreement with the Horry County Public Safety Division (See Appendix A). Your completed agreement must be sent to the Horry County Public Safety Division by mail or fax:
    Horry County Public Safety Division
    2560 Main Street, #4
    Conway, South Carolina 29526
    Fax: (843) 915-6400


  2. The Horry County Public Safety Committee will hold a public hearing on your request. You will be contacted on the date, time, and location of your public hearing.

  3. 3. The owner, lessee, or managing authority MUST post at least 2 signs on their property. The signs must be visible from any street or thoroughfare the property abuts and any public land sharing a common boundary. The signs MUST be purchased from the Horry County Public Safety Division. The cost of each sign will be $17.00 and must be paid for by CASH OR MONEY ORDERS ONLY.

For more information on this process, please contact the Horry County Public Information Office at (843) 915-5390. For information on the status of your request, please contact the Horry County Public Safety Division at (843) 915-5400.
