Flooding from Hurricane Matthew destroyed the station owned and operated by the Fair Bluff Fire Department and Rescue Squad, which serves Fair Bluff and surrounding areas of Columbus County.

This Golden LEAF grant will support design, engineering, and construction of a new station on donated land located outside of the floodplain.
