USDA Secures New Long-Term Fire-Retardant Contract, Saving Taxpayers Hundreds of Millions

U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke L. Rollins today signed a new five-year contract for American made fire retardant with Perimeter Solutions, supporting the U.S. Forest Service and Department of the Interior’s aerial wildland fire suppression programs. The agreement secures significant savings, putting the American taxpayer first, while strengthening our manufacturing base by keeping fire-retardant production made in America.

This contract is a tremendous win for America’s taxpayers, our rural communities, and the brave men and women who fight wildfires every day,” said Secretary Brooke Rollins. “By locking in historic cost savings and bringing every step of the fire-retardant supply chain back to American soil, we are protecting lives, saving communities from destruction, and keeping America safe, strong, and resilient. This agreement proves that when we put America first, we get the best results for our people and our land.”
