A number of chemicals pass over the road network of the
UK in different compositions and containers and each present their own risk to
either person or environment. The Fire Service has to be prepared for each and
every potential hazard, and training is undertaken with various organizations
and situations, most Fire Brigades having specialist officers that are trained
to undertake these duties and to keep abreast of current guides and theories.
The links detailed below are aimed at the Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) and hopefully
an insite to this work.
