Camden County includes wooded areas near the Pinelands fringe that carry wildfire risk. The NJ Forest Fire Service maps daily fire danger by county and manages wildland fire; the county itself designates no wildfire zones.
New Jersey is among the most densely forested states, and the NJ Forest Fire Service protects about 3.72 million acres—77% of the state. Eastern Camden County (Winslow, Waterford, and Pinelands-edge towns) sits in the wildland-urban interface, where homes border flammable Pine Barrens vegetation that burns hot and spreads fast. The Forest Fire Service publishes a color-coded Fire Danger Dashboard rating risk by county and issues burn bans during high-danger periods. There is no county-designated wildfire hazard zone; risk is managed at the state level through the Forest Fire Service and the NJ Wildfire SMART defensible-space program.
Causing a wildfire—for example by illegal burning—can bring criminal charges, DEP penalties, and full liability for suppression costs and damages; a 2025 illegal bonfire sparked a 15,000-acre NJ wildfire.
