02/ The brief

What the notice says

Not fully read: this is the notice text; attached documents are not read.

Natural England area teams need to provide evidence-based advice in emergency situations, to

extinguish fires and minimise damage to SSSIs and other protected sites. It is expected that the

need for chemical fire suppression (such as wetting agents, compressed air foam systems and

expansion foam concentrates) within these habitats will continue to grow in the years to come, with

a likely increasing frequency and magnitude of wildfires in the UK as a result of climate change.

Changing seasonal and rainfall patterns coupled with changing water use will continue to result in

reduced accessibility to sufficient water for fire suppression activities, especially in upland areas,

increasing the need for chemical additives to be used in these situations. However, Fire and Rescue

Services in the UK are hesitant of using these suppressants due to lack of knowledge as to their

environmental effects and efficacy, therefore potentially failing to utilise an effective suppression

solution.

The contract was awarded by Natural England.
