§ 55.22 Alternate methods or procedures;
emergency variations from requirements.
(a) Alternate methods or procedures. The
permittee or licensee, on specific approval by the
Director as provided by this paragraph, may use an
alternate method or procedure in lieu of a method or
procedure specifically prescribed in this part. The
Director may approve an alternate method or
procedure, subject to stated conditions, when he
finds that:
(1) Good cause is shown for the use of the
alternate method or procedure;
(2) The alternate method or procedure is within
the purpose of, and consistent with the effect
intended by, the specifically prescribed method or
procedure and that the alternate method or
procedure is substantially equivalent to that
specifically prescribed method or procedure; and
(3) The alternate method or procedure will not be
contrary to any provision of law and will not result in
an increase in cost to the Government or hinder the
effective administration of this part.
Where the permittee or licensee desires to
employ an alternate method or procedure, he shall
submit a written application to the regional director
(compliance), for transmittal to the Director. The
application shall specifically describe the proposed
alternate method or procedure and shall set forth
the reasons for it. Alternate methods or procedures
may not be employed until the application is
approved by the Director. The permittee or licensee
shall, during the period of authorization of an
alternate method or procedure, comply with the
terms of the approved application. Authorization of
any alternate method or procedure may be
withdrawn whenever, in the judgment of the
Director, the effective administration of this part is
hindered by the continuation of the authorization. As
17
used in this paragraph, alternate methods or
procedures include alternate construction or
equipment.
(b) Emergency variations from requirements.
The Director may approve construction, equipment,
and methods of operation other than as specified in

and the proposed variations from the specified
requirements are necessary and the proposed
variations:
(1) Will afford security and protection that are
substantially equivalent to those prescribed in this
part;
(2) Will not hinder the effective administration of
this part; and
(3) Will not be contrary to any provisions of law.
Variations from requirements granted under this
paragraph are conditioned on compliance with the
procedures, conditions, and limitations set forth in
the approval of the application. Failure to comply in
good faith with the procedures, conditions, and
limitations shall automatically terminate the authority
for the variations and the licensee or permittee shall
fully comply with the prescribed requirements of
regulations from which the variations were
authorized. Authority for any variation may be
withdrawn whenever, in the judgment of the
Director, the effective administration of this part is
hindered by the continuation of the variation. Where
the licensee or permittee desires to employ an
emergency variation, he shall submit a written
application to the regional director (compliance) for
transmittal to the Director. The application shall
describe the proposed variation and set forth the
reasons for it. Variations may not be employed until
the application is approved, except when the
emergency requires immediate action to correct a
situation that is threatening to life or property.
Corrective action may then be taken concurrent with
the filing of the application and notification of the
Director via telephone.
(c) Retention of approved variations. The
licensee or permittee shall retain, as part of his
records available for examination by ATF officers,
any application approved by the Director under this
section.

Where, under the laws of the particular State, the
partnership is not terminated on death or insolvency
of a partner, but continues until the winding up of the
partnership affairs is completed, and the surviving
partner has the exclusive right to the control and

have been completed.
(d) Magazines acquired or constructed after
permit or license is issued. A licensee or
permittee who intends to construct or acquire

Subpart E—License and Permit Proceedings
§ 55.71 Opportunity for compliance.
Except in cases of willfulness or those in which
the public interest requires otherwise, and the
regional director (compliance) so alleges in the
notice of denial of an application or revocation of a
license or permit, no license or permit will be
revoked or renewal application denied without first
calling to the attention of the licensee or permittee
the reasons for the contemplated action and
affording him an opportunity to demonstrate or
achieve compliance with all lawful requirements and
to submit facts, arguments, or proposals of
adjustment. The notice of contemplated action, AFT
F 5400.12, will afford the licensee or permittee 15
days from the date of receipt of the notice to
respond. If no response is received within the 15
days, or if after consideration of relevant matters
presented by the licensee or permittee, the regional
director (compliance) finds that the licensee or
permittee is not likely to abide by the law and
regulations, he will proceed as provided in § 55.74.
[T.D. ATF-87, 46 FR 40384, Aug. 7, 1981]
§ 55.72 Denial of initial application.
Whenever the regional director (compliance) has
reason to believe that an applicant for an original
license or permit is not eligible to receive a license
or permit under the provisions of § 55.49, he shall
issue a notice of denial on ATF F 5400.11. The
notice will set forth the matters of fact and law relied
upon in determining that the application should be
denied, and will afford the applicant 15 days from
the date of receipt of the notice in which to request a
hearing to review the denial. If no request for a
hearing is filed within that time, a copy of the
application, marked "Disapproved", will be returned
to the applicant.
[T.D. ATF-87, 46 FR 40384, Aug. 7, 1981]
§ 55.73 Hearing after initial application is
denied.
If the applicant for an original license or permit
desires a hearing, he shall file a request with the
regional director (compliance) within 15 days after
receipt of the notice of denial. The request should
include a statement of the reasons for a hearing. On
receipt of the request, the regional director
(compliance) shall refer the matter to an
administrative law judge who shall set a time and
place (see § 55.77) for a hearing and shall serve
notice of the hearing upon the applicant and the
regional director (compliance) at least 10 days in
26
advance of the hearing date. The hearing will be
conducted in accordance with the hearing
procedures prescribed in Part 200 of this chapter
(see § 55.82). Within a reasonable time after the
conclusion of the hearing, and as expeditiously as
possible, the administrative law judge shall render
his recommended decision. He shall certify to the
complete record of the proceedings before him and
shall immediately forward the complete certified
record, together with four copies of his
recommended decision, to the regional director
(compliance) for decision.

§ 55.74 Denial of renewal application or
revocation of license or permit.
If following the opportunity for compliance under §
55.71, or without opportunity for compliance under §
55.71, as circumstances warrant, the regional
director (compliance) finds that the licensee or
permittee is not likely to comply with the law or
regulations or is otherwise not eligible to continue
operations authorized under his license or permit,
the regional director (compliance) shall issue a
notice of denial of the renewal application or
revocation of the license or permit, ATF F 5400.11
or ATF F 5400.10, as appropriate. In either case,
the notice will set forth the matters of fact
constituting the violations specified, dates, places,
and the sections of law and regulations violated.
The notice will, in the case of revocation of a license
or permit, specify the date on which the action is
effective, which date will be on or after the date the
notice is served on the licensee or permittee. The
notice will also advise the licensee or permittee that
he may, within 15 days after receipt of the notice,
request a hearing and, if applicable, a stay of the
effective date of the revocation of his license or
permit.
[T.D. ATF-87, 46 FR 40384, Aug. 7, 1981]
§ 55.75 Hearing after denial of renewal
application or revocation of license or permit.
If a licensee or permittee whose renewal
application has been denied or whose license or
permit has been revoked desires a hearing, he shall
file a request for a hearing with the regional director
(compliance). In the case of the revocation of a
license or permit, he may include a request for a
stay of the effective date of the revocation. On
receipt of the request the regional director
(compliance) shall advise the licensee or permittee

whether the stay of the effective date of the
revocation is granted. If the stay of the effective date
of the revocation is granted, the regional director
(compliance) shall refer the matter to an
administrative law judge who shall set a time and
place (see § 55.77) for a hearing and shall serve
notice of the hearing upon the licensee or permittee
and the regional director (compliance) at least 10
days in advance of the hearing date. If the stay of
the effective date of the revocation is denied, the
licensee or permittee may request an immediate
hearing. In this event, the regional director
(compliance) shall immediately refer the matter to
an administrative law judge who shall set a date and
place for a hearing, which date shall be no later than
10 days from the date the licensee or permittee
requested an immediate hearing. The hearing will
be held in accordance with the applicable provisions
of Part 200 of this chapter. Within a reasonable time
after the conclusion of the hearing, and as
expeditiously as possible, the administrative law
judge shall render his decision. He shall certify to
the complete record of the proceeding before him
and shall immediately forward the complete certified
record, together with two copies of his decision, to
the regional director (compliance), serve one copy
of his decision on the licensee or permittee or his
counsel, and transmit a copy to the attorney for the
Government.
[T.D. ATF-87, 46 FR 40384, Aug. 7, 1981]
§ 55.76 Action by regional director
(compliance).
(a) Initial application proceedings. If, upon
receipt of the record and the recommended
decision of the administrative law judge, the regional
director (compliance) decides that the license or
permit should be issued, the regional director
(compliance) shall cause the application to be
approved, briefly stating, for the record, his reasons.
If he contemplates that the denial should stand, he
shall serve a copy of the administrative law judge's
recommended decision on the applicant, informing
the applicant of his contemplated action and
affording the applicant not more than 10 days in
which to submit proposed findings and conclusions
or exceptions to the recommended decision with
supporting reasons. If the regional director
(compliance), after consideration of the record of the
hearing and of any proposed findings, conclusions,
or exceptions filed with him by the applicant,
approves the findings, conclusions and
recommended decision of the administrative law
judge, the regional director (compliance) shall cause
the license or permit to be issued or disapproved
the application accordingly. If he disapproves the
27
findings, conclusions, and recommendation of the
administrative law judge, in whole or in part, he shall
by order make such findings and conclusions as in
his opinion are warranted by the law and the facts in
the record. Any decision of the regional director
(compliance) ordering the disapproval of an initial
application for a license or permit shall state the
findings and conclusions upon which it is based,
including his ruling upon each proposed finding,
conclusion, and exception to the administrative law
judge's recommended decision, together with a
statement of his findings and conclusions, and
reasons or basis for his findings and conclusions,
upon all material issues of fact, law or discretion
presented on the record. A signed duplicate original
of the decision will be served upon the applicant and
the original copy containing certificate of service will
be placed in the official record of the proceedings. If
the decision of the regional director (compliance) is
in favor of the applicant, he shall issue the license or
permit, to be effective on issuance.
(b) Renewal application and revocation
proceedings. Upon receipt of the complete certified
records of the hearing, the regional director
(compliance) shall enter an order confirming the
revocation of the license or permit, or disapproving
the application, in accordance with the
administrative law judge's findings and decision,
unless he disagrees with the findings and decision.
A signed duplicate original of the order, ATF F
5400.9, will be served upon the licensee or
permittee and the original copy containing certificate
of service will be placed in the official record of the
proceedings. If the regional director (compliance)
disagrees with the findings and decision of the
administrative law judge, he shall file a petition with
the Director for review of the findings and decision,
as provided in § 55.79. In either case, if the renewal
application denial is sustained, a copy of the
application marked "Disapproved" will be returned
to the applicant. If the renewal application denial is
reversed, a license or permit will be issued to
become effective on expiration of the license or
permit being renewed, or on the date of issuance,
whichever is later. If the proceedings involve the
revocation of a license or permit which expired
before a decision is in favor of the licensee or
permittee, the regional director (compliance) shall:
(1) If renewal application was timely filed and a
stay of the effective date of the revocation was
granted, cause to be issued a license or permit
effective on the date of issuance;
(2) If renewal application was not timely filed but
a stay of the effective date of the revocation had
been granted, request that a renewal application be

filed and, following that, cause to be issued a
license or permit to be effective on issuance; or
(3) If a stay of the effective date of the revocation
had not been granted, request that an application
be filed as provided in § 55.45, and process it in the
same manner as for an application for an original
license or permit.
(c) Curtailment of stay of revocation effective
date. If, after approval of a request for a stay of the
effective date of an order revoking a license or
permit but before actions are completed under this
subpart, the regional director (compliance) finds that
it is contrary to the public interest for the licensee or
permittee to continue the operations or activities
covered by his license or permit, the regional
director (compliance) may issue a notice of
withdrawal of the approval, effective on the date of
issuance. Notice of withdrawal will be served upon
the licensee or permittee in the manner provided in
§ 55.81.

§ 55.79 Appeal on petition to the Director.
An appeal to the Director is not required prior to
filing an appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for
judicial review. An appeal may be taken by the
applicant, licensee, or permittee to the Director from
a decision resulting from a hearing under § 55.73 or
§ 55.75. An appeal may also be taken by a regional
director (compliance) from a decision resulting from
28
a hearing under § 55.75 as provided in § 55.76(b).
The appeal shall be taken by filing a petition for
review on appeal with the Director within 15 days of
the service of an administrative law judge's decision
or an order. The petition will set forth facts tending to
show
(a) action of an arbitrary nature,
(b) action without reasonable warrant in fact, or
(c) action contrary to law and regulations.
A copy of the petition will be filed with the regional
director (compliance) or served on the applicant,
licensee, or permittee, as the case may be. In the
event of appeal, the regional director (compliance)
shall immediately forward the complete original
record, by certified mail, to the Director for his
consideration, review, and disposition as provided in
Subpart I of Part 200 of this chapter. When, on
appeal, the Director affirms the initial decision of the
regional director (compliance) or the administrative
law judge, as the case may be, the initial decision
will be final.

administrative law judge or the final order of the
regional director (compliance) or the Director, file a
petition for a judicial review of the decision, with the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the district in which he
resides or has his principal place of business. The
Director, upon notification that a petition has been
filed, shall have prepared a complete transcript of
the record of the proceedings. The regional director
(compliance) or the Director, as the case may be,
shall certify to the correctness of the transcript of the
record, forward one copy to the attorney for the
Government in the review of the case, and file the
original record of the proceedings with the original
certificate in the U.S. Court of Appeals.

activities covered by the license or permit pending
29
the outcome of proceedings under this subpart. In
any case where notice of revocation has been

A license or permit issued under this part, or a
copy of a license or permit, will be posted and
available for inspection on the business premises at
each place where explosive materials are
manufactured, imported, or distributed.
[T.D. ATF-87, 46 FR 40384, Aug. 7, 1981]
§ 55.102 Authorized operations by permittees.
(a) In general. A permit issued under this part
does not authorize the permittee to engage in the
business of manufacturing, importing, or dealing in
explosive materials. Accordingly, if a permittee's
operations bring him within the definition of
manufacturer, importer, or dealer under this part, he
shall qualify for the appropriate license.
(b) Distributions of surplus stocks. Permittees
are not authorized to engage in the business of sale
or distribution of explosive materials. However,
permittees may dispose of surplus stocks of
explosive materials to other licensees or permittees
in accordance with § 55.103, and to nonlicensees or
to nonpermittees in accordance with § 55.105(d).

§ 55.103 Transactions among licensees/
permittees.
(a) General.
(1) A licensed importer, licensed manufacturer or
licensed dealer selling or otherwise distributing
explosive materials (or a permittee disposing of
surplus stock to a licensee or another permittee)
who has the certified information required by this
section may sell or distribute explosive materials to
a licensee or permittee for not more than 45 days
following the expiration date of the distributee's
license or permit, unless the distributor knows or
has reason to believe that the distributee's authority
to continue business or operations under this part
has been terminated.
(2) A licensed importer, licensed manufacturer or
licensed dealer selling or otherwise distributing
explosive materials (or a permittee disposing of
surplus stock to another licensee or permittee) shall
verify the license or permit status of the distributee
prior to the release of explosive materials ordered,
as required by this section.
(3) Licensees or permittees desiring to return
explosive materials to a licensed manufacturer may
do so without obtaining a certified copy of the
manufacturer's license.
30
(4) Where possession of explosive materials is
transferred at the distributor's premises, the
distributor shall in all instances verify the identity of
the person accepting possession on behalf of the
distributee before relinquishing possession. Before
the delivery at the distributor's premises of explosive
materials to an employee of a licensee or permittee,
or to an employee of a carrier transporting explosive
materials to a licensee or permittee, the distributor
delivering explosive materials shall obtain an
executed ATF F 5400.8 from the employee before
releasing the explosive materials. The ATF F
5400.8 must contain all of the information required
on the form and required by this part.
Example 1. An ATF F 5400.8 is required when:
a. An employee of the purchaser takes
possession at the distributor's premises.
b. An employee of a carrier hired by the
purchaser takes possession at the
distributor's premises.
Example 2. An ATF F 5400.8 is not required
when:
a. An employee of the distributor takes
possession of the explosives for the
purpose of transport to the purchaser.
b. An employee of a carrier hired by the
distributor takes possession of the
explosives for the purpose of transport to
the purchaser.
(b) License/permit verification of individuals.
(1) The distributee shall furnish a certified copy
(or, in the case of a user-limited, the original) of the
license or permit. The certified copy need be
furnished only once during the current term of the
license or permit. Also, a licensee need not furnish
certified copies of licenses to other licensed
locations operated by such licensee.
(2) The distributor may obtain any additional
verification as the distributor deems necessary.
(c) License/permit verification of business
organizations.
(1) A business organization may (in lieu of
furnishing a certified copy of a license) furnish the
distributor a certified list which contains the name,
address, license number and date of license
expiration of each licensed location. The certified list
need be furnished only once during the current term
of the license or permit. Also, a business

organization need not furnish a certified list to other
licensed locations operated by such business
organization.
(2) A business organization shall, prior to
ordering explosive materials, furnish the licensee or
permittee a current certified list of the
representatives or agents authorized to order
explosive materials on behalf of the business
organization showing the name, address, and date
and place of birth of each representative or agent. A
licensee or permittee shall not distribute explosive
materials to a business organization on the order of
a person who does not appear on the certified list of
representatives or agents and, if the person does
appear on the certified list, the licensee or permittee
shall verify the identity of such person.
(d) Licensee/permittee certified statement.
(1) A licensee or permittee ordering explosive
materials from another licensee or permittee shall
furnish a current, certified statement of the intended
use of the explosive materials; e.g., resale, mining,
quarrying, agriculture, construction, road building, oil
well drilling, seismographic research, to the
distributor.
(2) For individuals, the certified statement of
intended use must specify the name, address, date
and place of birth, and social security number of the
distributee.
(3) For business organizations, the certified
statement of intended use must specify the taxpayer
identification number, the identity and the principal
and local places of business.
(4) The licensee or permittee purchasing
explosive materials need revise the furnished copy
of the certified statement only when the information
is no longer current.
(e) User-limited permit transactions. A user-
limited permit issued under the provisions of this
part is valid for only a single purchase transaction
and is not renewable (see § 55.51). Accordingly, at
the time a user-limited permittee orders explosive
materials, the licensed distributor shall write on the
front of the user-limited permit the transaction date,
his signature, and the distributor's license number
prior to returning the permit to the user-limited

§ 55.207 Construction of type 1 magazines.
A type 1 magazine is a permanent structure: a
building, an igloo or "Army-type structure", a tunnel,
or a dugout. It is to be bullet-resistant, fire-resistant,
weather-resistant, theft-resistant, and ventilated.
(a) Buildings. All building type magazines are to
be constructed of masonry, wood, metal, or a
combination of these materials, and have no
openings except for entrances and ventilation. The
ground around building magazines must slope
away for drainage or other adequate drainage
provided.
(1) Masonry wall construction. Masonry wall
construction is to consist of brick, concrete, tile,
cement block, or cinder block and be not less than 6
inches in thickness. Hollow masonry units used in
construction must have all hollow spaces filled with
well-tamped, coarse, dry sand or weak concrete (at
least a mixture of one part cement and eight parts of
sand with enough water to dampen the mixture
while tamping in place). Interior walls are to be
constructed of, or covered with, a nonsparking
material.
(2) Fabricated metal wall construction. Metal
wall construction is to consist of sectional sheets of
steel or aluminum not less than number 14-gauge,
securely fastened to a metal framework. Metal wall
construction is either lined inside with brick, solid
cement blocks, hardwood not less than four inches
thick, or will have at least a six inch sand fill between
interior and exterior walls. Interior walls are to be

constructed of, or covered with, a nonsparking
material.
(3) Wood frame wall construction. The
exterior of outer wood walls is to be covered with
iron or aluminum not less than number 26-gauge.
An inner wall of, or covered with nonsparking
material will be constructed so as to provide a space
of not less than six inches between the outer and
inner walls. The space is to be filled with coarse, dry
sand or weak concrete.
(4) Floors. Floors are to be constructed of, or
covered with, a nonsparking material and shall be
strong enough to bear the weight of the maximum
quantity to be stored. Use of pallets covered with a
nonsparking material is considered equivalent to a
floor constructed of or covered with a nonsparking
material.
(5) Foundations. Foundations are to be
constructed of brick, concrete, cement block, stone,
or wood posts. If piers or posts are used, in lieu of a
continuous foundation, the space under the
buildings is to be enclosed with metal.
(6) Roof. Except for buildings with fabricated
metal roofs, the outer roof is to be covered with no
less than number 26-guage iron or aluminum,
fastened to at least 7/8 inch sheathing.
(7) Bullet-resistant ceilings or roofs. Where it
is possible for a bullet to be fired directly through the
roof and into the magazine at such an angle that the
bullet would strike the explosives within, the
magazine is to be protected by one of the following
methods:
(i) A sand tray lined with a layer of building
paper, plastic, or other nonporous material, and
filled with not less than four inches of coarse, dry
sand, and located at the tops of inner walls covering
the entire ceiling area, except that portion necessary
for ventilation.
(ii) A fabricated metal roof constructed of 3/16-
inch plate steel lined with four inches of hardwood.
(For each additional 1/16 inch of plate steel, the
hardwood lining may be decreased one inch.)
(8) Doors. All doors are to be constructed of not
less than 1/4 inch plate steel and lined with at least
two inches of hardwood. Hinges and hasps are to
be attached to the doors by welding, riveting or
bolting (nuts on inside of door). They are to be
installed in such a manner that the hinges and
hasps cannot be removed when the doors are
closed and locked.
(9) Locks. Each door is to be equipped with (i)
two mortise locks; (ii) two padlock fastened in
separate hasps and staples; (iii) a combination of a
mortise lock and a padlock; (iv) a mortise lock that
requires two keys to open; or (v) a three-point lock.
Padlocks must have at least five tumblers and a
46
casehardened shackle of at least 3/8 inch diameter.
Padlocks must be protected with not less than 1/4
inch steel hoods constructed so as to prevent
sawing or lever action on the locks, hasps, and
staples. These requirements do not apply to
magazine doors that are adequately secured on the
inside by means of a bolt, lock, or bar that cannot be
actuated from the outside.
(10) Ventilation. Ventilation is to be provided to
prevent dampness and heating of stored explosive
materials. Ventilation openings must be screened to
prevent the entrance of sparks. Ventilation openings
in side walls and foundations must be offset or
shielded for bullet-resistant purposes. Magazines
having foundation and roof ventilators with the air
circulating between the side walls and the floors and
between the side walls and the ceiling must have a
wooden lattice lining or equivalent to prevent the
packages of explosive materials from being stacked
against the side walls and blocking the air
circulation.
(11) Exposed metal. No sparking material is to
be exposed to contact with the stored explosive
materials. All ferrous metal nails in the floor and side
walls, which might be exposed to contact with
explosive materials, must be blind nailed,
countersunk, or covered with a nonsparking lattice
work or other nonsparking material.
(b) Igloos, "Army-type structures", tunnels, and
dugouts. Igloo, "Army-type structure", tunnel, and
dugout magazines are to be constructed of
reinforced concrete, masonry, metal, or a
combination of these materials. They must have an
earthmound covering of not less than 24 inches on
the top, sides and rear unless the magazine meets
the requirements of paragraph (a)(7) of this section.
Interior walls and floors must be constructed of, or
covered with, a nonsparking material. Magazines of
this type are also to be constructed in conformity
with the requirements of paragraph (a)(4) and
paragraphs (a)(8) through (11) of this section.

Table: AMERICAN TABLE OF DISTANCES FOR STORAGE OF EXPLOSIVES (December 1910), as

Revised and Approved by the Institute of Makers of Explosives-July, 1991.

Notes to the Table of Distances for Storage of
Explosives
(1) Terms found in the table of distances for
storage of explosive materials are defined in §
55.11.
(2) When two or more storage magazines are
located on the same property, each magazine must
comply with the minimum distances specified from
inhabited buildings, railways, and highways, and, in
addition, they should be separated from each other
by not less than the distances shown for
"Separation of Magazines," except that the quantity
of explosives contained in cap magazines shall
govern in regard to the spacing of said cap
magazines from magazines containing other
explosives. If any two or more magazines are
separated from each other by less than the
specified "Separation of Magazines" distances, then
such two or more magazines, as a group, must be
considered as one magazine, and the total quantity
of explosives stored in such group must be treated
as if stored in a single magazine located on the site
of any magazine of the group, and must comply
with the minimum of distances specified from other
magazines, inhabited buildings, railways, and
highways.
(3) All types of blasting caps in strengths through
No. 8 cap should be rated at 11/2 lbs. of explosives
per 1,000 caps. For strengths higher than No. 8
cap, consult the manufacturer.
(4) For quantity and distance purposes,
detonating cord of 50 or 60 grains per foot should
be calculated as equivalent to 9 lbs. of high
explosives per 1,000 feet. Heavier or lighter core
loads should be rated proportionately.

Notes of Table of Separation Distances of combinations thereof are acceptors. If stores of

Ammonium Nitrate and Blasting Agents From
Explosives or Blasting Agents
(1) This table specifies separation distances to
prevent explosion of ammonium nitrate and
ammonium nitrate-based blasting agents by
propagation from nearby stores of high explosives
or blasting agents referred to in the table as the
"donor." Ammonium nitrate, by itself, is not
considered to be a donor when applying this table.
Ammonium nitrate, ammonium nitrate-fuel oil or
ammonium nitrate are located within the
sympathetic detonation distance of explosives or
blasting agents, one-half the mass of the
ammonium nitrate is to be included in the mass of
the donor.
(2) When the ammonium nitrate and/or blasting
agent is not barricaded, the distances shown in the
table must be multiplied by six. These distances
allow for the possibility of high velocity metal
fragments from mixers, hoppers, truck bodies, sheet
metal structures, metal containers, and the like
 54

which may enclose the "donor." Where explosives
storage is in bullet-resistant magazines or where the
storage is protected by a bullet-resistant wall,
distances and barricade thicknesses in excess of
those prescribed in the table in § 55.218 are not
required.
(3) These distances apply to ammonium nitrate
that passes the insensitivity test prescribed in the
definition of ammonium nitrate fertilizer issued by
1
the Fertilizer Institute. Ammonium nitrate failing to
pass the test must be stored at separation distances
in accordance with the table in § 55.218.

Definition and Test Procedures for
Ammonium Nitrate Fertilizer, Fertilizer Institute
1015-18th St. N.W. Washington, D.C. 20036.
(4) These distances apply to blasting agents
which pass the insensitivity test prescribed in
regulations of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (49 CFR part 173).
(5) Earth or sand dikes, or enclosures filled with
the prescribed minimum thickness of earth or sand
are acceptable artificial barricades. Natural
barricades, such as hills or timber of sufficient
density that the surrounding exposures which
require protection cannot be seen from the "donor"
when the trees are bare of leaves, are also
acceptable.
(6) For determining the distances to be
maintained from inhabited buildings, passenger
railways, and public highways, use the table in §
55.218.

who ship, transport or receive explosive materials in
interstate or foreign commerce. See Question 46
on the applicability of State and local requirements.
Also, see 18 U.S.C. 845 and 27 CFR 55.141 for
exemptions.
2. Can I obtain general information from ATF
on the Internet?
Yes. ATF maintains a website on the Internet at
www.atf.treas.gov.
3. Does the law make some classes of
persons ineligible to receive a Federal license to
import, manufacture, or deal in explosive
materials or to receive a Federal explosives
permit?
Yes. A license or permit will not be issued to any
person who:
(a) Is under 21 years of age;
(b) Has been convicted in any court of a crime
punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding
one year;
(c) Is under indictment for a crime punishable by
imprisonment for a term exceeding one year;

the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802)); or
(f) Has been adjudicated a mental defective.
[18 U.S.C. 842(d), 843(b); 27 CFR 55.49]
4. Are there classes of persons to whom the
distribution of explosive materials by licensees
is prohibited?
Yes. No person shall knowingly distribute
explosive materials to any class of person listed in
Question 3 above. [18 U.S.C. 842(d); 27 CFR
55.106]
5. What other distributions of explosive
materials by licensees are prohibited?
A licensee shall not knowingly distribute any
explosive materials to any person who:
(a) is not a licensee or permittee and who the
licensee knows or has reason to believe does not
reside in the State in which the licensee’s place of
business is located (unless the “contiguous State”
54
exception applies. See Questions 7, 8, and 54).
[18 U.S.C. 842(b), 27 CFR 55.105, 55.106];
(b) is in any State where the purchase,
possession, or use of explosive materials would be
in violation of any State law or any published
ordinance applicable at the place of distribution [18
U.S.C. 842(e); 27 CFR 55.106];
(c) the licensee has reason to believe intends to
transport explosive materials into a State where the
purchase, possession, or use of explosive materials
is prohibited or which does not permit its residents
to transport or ship explosive materials into the
State or to receive explosive materials in the State
[18 U.S.C. 842(c); 27 CFR 55.106]; or
(d) the licensee has reasonable cause to believe
intends to use the explosive materials for other than
a lawful purpose. [27 CFR 55.106]
6. Does Federal law prohibit certain persons
from receiving or possessing explosive
materials?
Yes. The law prohibits the receipt or possession
of explosive materials by any person who:
(a) is under indictment for, or who has been
convicted in any court of, a crime punishable by
imprisonment for a term exceeding one year;
(b) is a fugitive from justice;
(c) is an unlawful user of or addicted to any
controlled substance (as defined in section 102 of
the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802)); or
(d) has been adjudicated as a mental defective
or who has been committed to a mental institution.
[18 U.S.C. 842(i); 27 CFR 55.26(b)]
7. May a licensed manufacturer, importer, or
dealer distribute explosive materials to
nonlicensees and nonpermittees who are not
residents of the same State as the licensee?
Generally, no. However, a licensed
manufacturer, importer, or dealer may distribute
explosives to a nonlicensee or nonpermittee who is
a resident of a State contiguous to the State in
which the licensee’s place of business is located
only if the nonlicensee’s or nonpermittee’s State of
residence has enacted legislation, currently in force,
specifically authorizing a resident of that State to
purchase explosive materials in a contiguous State,
and the purchaser and the licensee comply with all
the requirements applicable to intrastate
transactions occurring on the licensee’s business
premises. [18 U.S.C. 842(b); 27 CFR 55.105,
55.106]

8. What States allow their citizens to
purchase explosive materials in contiguous or
bordering States?
State attorneys general or State fire marshals
should be contacted to determine whether their
particular States have enacted such legislation.
9. When a person purchases explosive
materials, must he or she sign anything?
Yes. ATF Form 5400.4 must be executed by the
buyer for purchases of explosive materials. A
Federal explosives licensee or permittee who
purchases explosive materials is not required to
complete Form 5400.4 (see also Question 61).
[27 CFR 55.126]
10. Does Federal law provide penalties for
purchasers who give false information to a
licensee at the time of purchase?
Yes. The penalty for providing false information
or misrepresented identification is a maximum 10
years’ imprisonment and/or a fine not exceeding
$250,000. [18 U.S.C. 842(a)(2), 844(a)]
11. Is the theft of explosive materials, as well
as the possession of stolen explosive materials,
a Federal crime?
Yes. It is a Federal crime for any person to steal
any explosive materials. It is also a Federal crime
for any person to receive, possess, transport, ship,
conceal, store, barter, sell, dispose of, or pledge or
accept as security for a loan any stolen explosive
materials. [18 U.S.C. 842(h), 844(k), (l)]
12. Are thefts and losses of explosive
materials required to be reported to ATF?
Yes. Any licensee or permittee who has
knowledge of the theft or loss of any explosive
materials from his or her stock shall, within 24 hours
of discovery, report the theft or loss by telephoning
1-800-800-3855 (nationwide toll free number) and
on ATF Form 5400.5, “Report of Theft or Loss –
Explosive Materials”, in accordance with the
instructions on the form. The theft or loss shall also
be reported to appropriate local authorities. The
same requirements are imposed upon persons
other than licensees and permittees, except that
nonlicensees and nonpermittees, other than
carriers, need not report a theft or loss on Form
5400.5, but need only forward a report in writing to
the nearest ATF office. Carriers of explosive
materials must report a theft or loss by telephone
but need not make the report on the ATF form or in
writing. See 27 CFR 55.30 for the specific
information required to be reported in connection
55
with a theft or loss. [18 U.S.C. 842(k); 27 CFR
55.30]
13. My company holds a Federal explosives
license and after conducting an inventory of our
explosives on hand, we noticed one case of
dynamite missing. After double-checking all
Daily Summary of Magazine transactions,
invoices, and delivery sheets, we still cannot
reconcile the discrepancy. What do we do
now?
This should be considered to e a theft or loss of
explosive materials. As stated in the answer to
Question 12, you must report the theft or loss of
explosive materials, within 24 hours of discovery, to
ATF by telephone (toll free: 1-800-800-3855). ATF
Form 5400.5, “Report of Theft or Loss – Explosive
Materials”, must then be completed and forwarded
in accordance with the instructions on the form. [18
U.S.C. 842(k); 27 CFR 55.30]
14. May ATF conduct warrantless inspections
of licensees’ and permittees’ records of
explosives materials, stocks of such materials,
and magazines?
Any ATF officer may, without a warrant, enter
during business hours the premises, including
places of storage, of any licensee or permittee for
the purpose of inspecting or examining any records
or documents required to be kept by the law and
regulations and any explosive materials kept or
stored at the premises. For inspection purposes,
“business hours” includes hours during which
business is actually conducted, not just those hours
stated on license applications. Any licensee or
permittee who refuses to permit the inspection or
examination is subject to having his or her license or
permit revoked, as well as to denial of an application
to renew the license or permit. [18 U.S.C. 843(d),
(f); 27 CFR 55.24, 55.74]
15. Will anyone investigate accidents
involving explosive materials?
ATF is authorized to inspect the site of any
accident or fire where there is reason to believe that
explosive materials were involved. Other Federal
agencies, or State or local agencies, may also
investigate such incidents, depending on the
circumstances. [18 U.S.C. 846; 27 CFR 55.31]
16. Is black powder subject to regulation
under Federal explosives laws?
Black powder is an explosive material for
purposes of Federal explosives laws and
regulations. However, the law exempts from
regulation commercially manufactured black powder

in quantities not exceeding 50 pounds (as well as
percussion caps, safety and pyrotechnic fuses,
quills, quick and slow matches, and friction primers)
intended to be used solely for sporting, recreational,
or cultural purposes in antique firearms as defined
in 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(16) or in antique devices
exempted from the term “destructive device” in 18
U.S.C. 921(a)(4). However, it should be noted that
persons engaged in the business of importing,
manufacturing, or dealing in black powder in any
quantity must have a Federal explosives license.
[18 U.S.C. 841(c), (d), 845(a)(5); 27 CFR 55.11:
definitions of “explosives” and “explosive materials”,
55.141(b)]
17. Is small arms ammunition subject to
regulation under Federal explosives laws?
No. The law specifically exempts small arms
ammunition and components thereof; therefore,
primers and smokeless propellants designed for
use in small arms ammunition are exempt from
regulation under Chapter 40 (see also Question
75). However, it should be noted that persons
engaged in the business of importing and
manufacturing smokeless powder must have a
Federal explosives license. [18 U.S.C. 845(a)(4); 27
CFR 141(a)(4)]
18. Are binary explosives subject to
regulation under Federal explosives laws?
Until the compounds are mixed, they are not
classified as explosives and, therefore, are not
subject to control. However, once mixed, binary
explosives are considered to be “explosive
materials” and are subject to all applicable Federal
requirements. A person who regularly combines
compounds of binary explosives to manufacture
such explosives for the purpose of sale or
distribution or for the person’s own business use is
a “manufacturer” of explosives materials and must
be licensed as a manufacturer under the law. [18
U.S.C. 841(h); 27 CFR 55.11: definition of
“manufacturer”]
19. Does ATF have any regulations governing
the actual transportation of explosive materials?
Federal explosives laws and regulations
administered by ATF generally prohibit any person
from transporting explosive materials interstate
unless the person has a Federal explosives license
or permit. Also, the transportation of stolen
explosives materials is a Federal crime (see also
Question 11). However, the law exempts from
regulation under 18 U.S.C. Chapter 40 and 27 CFR
Part 55 any aspect of the transportation of explosive
materials via railroad, water, highway, or air which
56
are regulated by the United States Department of
Transportation and agencies thereof and which
pertain to safety. [18 U.S.C. 842(a)(3), (h),
845(a)(1); 27 CFR 55.26, 55.28, 141(a)(1)]
20. What is the “Explosives List”?
The Explosives List is a comprehensive (but not
all-inclusive) listing of the more common explosive
materials which have been determined to be within
the coverage of Chapter 40. The list is published
annually by ATF (the 1999 Explosives List can be
found in the “General Information” section of this
publication). [18 U.S.C. 841(d); 27 CFR 55.23]
21. Are common and contract carriers
subject to ATF regulation?
No. Common and contract carriers only provide a
delivery service with respect to explosive materials
and are, therefore, not subject to the requirements
to obtain licenses or permits. However, if an
employee of a carrier hired by an explosives
purchaser takes possession of the explosives
materials at the distributor’s premises, the carrier
must complete ATF Form 5400.8. The actual
transportation of explosive materials by carriers is
subject to Department of Transportation regulations.
[18 U.S.C. 845(a)(1); 27 CFR 55.103]
22. May a person under the age of 21 be
lawfully employed by an explosives business
and lawfully receive, possess, and use
explosive materials on behalf of the business?
Yes. Federal explosives law prohibits any person
from selling explosive materials to persons under 21
years of age. However, it does not prohibit the
delivery of explosive materials to persons under the
age of 21 who are receiving the materials on behalf
of their employers to whom the materials were
lawfully sold. Nor does Federal explosives law
prohibit a person under the age of 21 from
possessing or using explosive materials. [18 U.S.C.
842(d); 27 CFR 55.26, 55.106(b)(1)]
23. ATF regulations require explosive
materials to be stored at certain minimum
distances from a “public highway”. What is a
“public highway” for purposes of the
regulations?
A public highway is defined in 27 CFR 55.11
under the term “highway” as “any public street,
public alley, or public road, including a privately
financed, constructed, or maintained road that is
regularly and openly traveled by the general public.”
Privately financed, constructed, or maintained roads
that are marked and barricaded in a manner that
prevents access by the general public do not fall

within the meaning of the term and would, therefore,
be exempt from table of distance requirements. [27
CFR 55.11: definition of “highway”]
24. Is an airport runway or taxiway
considered a public highway for purposes of
the Table of Distances for storage of explosive
materials?
No. However, airport terminals are considered
inhabited buildings for Table of Distance
requirements.
25. How is shock tube regulated by ATF?
Shock tube is a high explosive. However, it may
be stored as a low explosive when not attached to a
detonator. [27 CFR 55.202(b)]
26. What is an EX number? What is a UN
number?
An EX number is a number, preceded by the
prefix “EX-“, which is issued and used by the
Department of Transportation (DOT) to identify an
explosive which has been tested and classified by
DOT. See U.S. Department of Transportation
regulations at 49 CFR 171.8 and 49 CFR 173.56.
A UN (United Nations) number is used by DOT as
a method of identification and classification of
products for shipping purposes. UN numbers are
different from the hazard class or division
designations used by DOT (for example, 1.1, 1.2,
1.3, 1.4, and 1.5). ATF regulations in 27 CFR Part
55 also use UN numbers to identify certain
explosives. [27 CFR 55.141(a)(7)]
27. How are airbags regulated by ATF?
Unless the product has been classified by ATF as
a special explosive device and exempted from
regulation under 27 CFR 55.32, an airbag device
containing explosive initiators, igniters, or inflators is
subject to regulation as containing explosive
Licenses and Permits
29. What persons qualify for a Federal
explosives license or permit?
The Chief, National Licensing Center, will approve
a properly completed application for a license or
permit on ATF Form 5400.13/5400.16 if the
applicant:
(a) Is 21 years of age or over;
(b) Is not a person to whom distribution of
explosive materials is prohibited under 18 U.S.C.
Chapter 40 (see also Question 4);
57
materials, i.e., low explosives, and must comply with
all applicable requirements under 27 CFR Part 55.
28. Can Federal explosives disabilities
resulting from a conviction of a crime
punishable by imprisonment for a term
exceeding one year be removed if the
conviction is expunged or set aside or the
convicted person has received a pardon for the
offense or has had his or her civil rights
restored?
A person convicted of, or under indictment for, a
“crime punishable by imprisonment for a term
exceeding one year” may not lawfully receive or
possess explosive materials or be issued a Federal
explosives license or permit. The term “crime
punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding
one year” does not include offenses pertaining to
antitrust violations, unfair trade practices, restraints
of trade, or any State offense (other than one
involving a firearm or explosive) classified as a
misdemeanor and punishable by imprisonment for 2
years or less. There are only 3 means by which
Federal explosives disabilities resulting from a
conviction of, or indictment for, a “crime punishable
by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year”
can be removed:
(a) A decision of a court invalidating a conviction
on the basis that the conviction was
unconstitutional;
(b) In the case of a Federal conviction, a
presidential pardon; and
(c) The granting of relief from Federal explosives
disabilities by ATF pursuant to the filing of a relief
application with the Director. See also Question 53
relating to convicted or indicted licensees and
permittees. [18 U.S.C. 841(l), 842(d),(i), 845(b); 27
CFR 55.11: definition of “crime punishable by
imprisonment for a term exceeding one year”,
55.26(b), 55.142]
(c) Has not willfully violated any provision of
Chapter 40 or the regulations in 27 CFR Part 55;
(d) Has not knowingly withheld information and
has not made any false or fictitious statement
intended or likely to deceive concerning the
application;
(e) Has premises in the State from which he or
she intends to conduct business or operations;

(f) Has storage for the class (as described in 27
CFR 55.202) of explosive materials described on
the application, unless it is established that the
business or operations to be conducted will not
require the storage of explosive materials;
(g) Has certified that he or she is familiar with
and understands all published State laws and local
ordinances relating to explosive materials for the
location in which he or she intends to do business;
and
(h) Has submitted the certificate required by
section 21 of the Federal Water Pollution Control
Act, as amended (33 U.S.C. 1341) [18 U.S.C.
843(b); 27 CFR 55.49(b)]
30. What activities are covered by licenses
and permits?
Licenses allow persons to engage in the business
of importing, manufacturing, or dealing in explosive
materials. Any individual or business entity
intending to engage in any of these activities must
first obtain a license. A permit allows the acquisition
and transportation of explosive materials in
interstate or foreign commerce. [27 CFR 55.11:
definitions of “importer”, “manufacturer”, and
“dealer”, 55.41]
A separate license is needed for each premises
where an explosives business or activity is
conducted (but see Questions 42 and 43). Only
one permit is needed by a permittee who uses
explosives in more than one location. [27 CFR
55.41]
31. For what period of time are licenses and
permits valid?
An original license or permit, as well as a renewal
license or permit, is issued for a period of 3 years.
However, a user-limited permit and a user-limited
display fireworks permit are valid only for a single
purchase transaction. [27 CFR 55.51]
32. What are the fees for licenses and
permits?
Each license applicant must pay a fee of $200 for
obtaining a 3-year license, a separate license and
fee being required for each business premises. The
fee for renewal of a license is $100 for a 3-year
license. [27 CFR 55.42]
Each applicant for a user permit must pay a fee of
$100 for a 3-year permit, and each applicant for a
user-limited permit (nonrenewable) must pay a fee
of $75. The fee for renewal of a user permit is $50
for a 3-year permit. [27 CFR 55.43]
33. Will the Government investigate an
application for a license or permit?
58
ATF may investigate any applicant and inspect all
places of storage of explosive materials before
issuing a license or permit. [27 CFR 55.49(a)]
34. What may a licensed explosives dealer
do?
A licensed dealer may engage in the business of
distributing explosive materials at wholesale or retail
[27 CFR 55.11: definition of “dealer”]
35. What may a licensed explosives importer
do?
A licensed importer may engage in the business
of importing or bringing explosives materials into the
United States for sale or distribution. [27 CFR
55.11: definition of “importer”]
It is not necessary for a licensed importer to also
obtain a dealer’s license to engage in business on
his or her licensed premises as a dealer in explosive
materials. [27 CFR 55.41(b)(3)]
36. When is a manufacturer's license
required?
A manufacturer’s license is needed only by
persons engaged in the business of manufacturing
explosive materials for sale, distribution, or for
business use. For example, persons engaged in
the business of providing a blasting service using
explosives of their own manufacture would be
required to have a manufacturer’s license. Persons
who manufacture explosives for their personal, non-
business use would not need a manufacturer’s
license. [27 CFR 55.11: definition of
“manufacturer”, 55.41]
37. What may a licensed explosives
manufacturer do?
Licensed manufacturers may engage in the
business of manufacturing explosive materials for
purposes of sale or distribution or for their own use.
They may also engage in on-site manufacture. [27
CFR 55.11: definition of “manufacturer”, 55.41(b)(2)]
It is not necessary for a licensed manufacturer to
also obtain a dealer’s license to engage in business
on his or her licensed premises as a dealer in
explosive materials. [27 CFR 55.41(b)(3)]
38. I want to buy a small quantity of dynamite
from my local dealer to use on my property. Do
I need a Federal user’s permit?
No, provided the dynamite is purchased in your
State of residence and not transported across State
lines. A user’s permit is required when a
nonlicensee acquires or transports explosive

materials in interstate or foreign commerce (see
Question 30).
Except for those items and activities given exempt
status under 18 U.S.C. 845 (also see 27 CFR
55.141), all persons who store explosive materials
must have storage facilities that meet the
requirements of 27 CFR Part 55, Subpart K,
“Storage”. [18 U.S.C. 842(j); 27 CFR 55.29,
55.201(a)]
39. May black powder be sold without a
license?
Anyone who engages in the business of selling
black powder, regardless of quantity, must be
licensed as an explosives dealer. [27 CFR
55.41(a)]
40. Is a manufacturer’s license required for
agricultural use of binary explosives?
No, as long as the user is not engaged in the
business of manufacturing explosive materials. For
example, if a farmer buys binary explosives for use
in blowing tree stumps on his farm, he or she does
not need a manufacturer’s license. However, if the
farmer uses binary explosives in a business of
blasting stumps/rocks, etc., for other persons, he or
she would be required to have a manufacturer’s
license. See also Questions 18, 36 and 37. [27
CFR 55.11: Definition of “manufacturer”, 55.41(a)]
41. What is theatrical flash powder and is
there a license for its manufacture?
Theatrical flash powder is flash powder
commercially manufactured in premeasured kits not
exceeding 1 ounce and mixed immediately prior to
use and intended for use in theatrical shows, stage
plays, band concerts, magic acts, thrill shows, and
clown acts in circuses. A type 19 (manufacturer of
theatrical flash powder) license allows on-site
manufacturers to operate nationally on one license
issued to their principal place of business. The
license must be posted at each site where theatrical
flash powder is mixed and used. Manufacture of
flash powder from larger quantities of base
chemicals is not covered by this license. [27 CFR
55.11: definitions of “flash powder” and “theatrical
flash powder”, 55.41(b)(4)]
42. Is a separate license required for each
location where business is conducted?
Yes. A separate license is required for each
location where business is conducted. However, a
separate license is not required for:
(a) Facilities used only for the storage of explosive
materials;
59
(b) Locations used solely for the storage of
records relating to the business; and
(c) Licensed manufacturers’ on-site
manufacturing. [27 CFR 55.41]
43. Must a person who engages in the
business of both manufacturing and importing
at the same location have both licenses?
Yes. The licenses for manufacturing and
importing allow a person to engage in separate and
distinct activities, and a separate license is required
for each activity. However, a manufacturer or an
importer does not need a separate dealer’s license
to also distribute explosive materials from the
licensed premises. [27 CFR 55.41]
44. Are companies having headquarters in
one State but doing business in another State
required to have a permit in order to acquire
explosive materials in the latter State?
No. Companies engaged in business within a
State typically acquire residency in that State by
virtue of the work being performed. (Applicable
State and local residency requirements should be
verified in each case.) Explosives purchases made
by these companies in the State where work is
being performed are considered by ATF to have
been made within their State of residence;
therefore, no permit is required. [ATF Ruling 76-4]
45. Does a licensed dealer need a permit to
use explosive materials outside the State in
which the dealer’s licensed business premises
is located?
No. The dealer, by virtue of his or her dealer’s
license, is authorized to acquire and transport
explosive materials in interstate commerce. [27
CFR 55.41(b)]
46. Does a Federal license or permit exempt
the holder from State or local requirements?
No. A license or permit confers no right or
privilege to conduct business or operations,
including storage, contrary to State or other law. All
legal requirements must be followed, whether
Federal, State, or local. [18 U.S.C. 848; 27 CFR
55.62]
47. How may I import explosive materials?
Any licensed importer or permittee may import
explosive materials by providing the Customs
Service a copy of the license or permit. Note,
however, that in the case of certain military
explosives or propellant powder or other
components of small arms ammunition, Federal
firearms regulations require the importer to provide

an approved ATF Form 6 to the Customs Service
(see also Question 75). [27 CFR 47.21, 55.108(a),
55.183, 178.113]
48. How do employees of an explosives
licensee or permittee qualify to purchase
explosive materials for the employer?
The employee must be on the current certified list
of representatives or agents authorized to acquire
explosives on behalf of the employer. [27 CFR
55.105(e)]
49. When an explosives licensee or permittee
sends his or her truck driver to the distributor’s
premises for explosive materials that have been
purchased by the licensee or permittee, will the
driver be required to sign any forms?
Yes. The driver is required to identify himself or
herself and complete and sign Section A of Form
5400.8. [27 CFR 55.103(a)(4), 55.105(f)]
50. Will a licensee or permittee be notified in
advance when the license or permit needs to be
renewed?
Generally, prior to expiration of the license or
permit, a licensee or permittee will be notified by
way of ATF Form 5400.14/5400.15, Part III,
“Renewal of Explosives License or Permit.” This
application form must be completed and filed with
ATF before expiration of the current license or
permit for the renewal to be considered timely. If a
licensee or permittee does not receive notification, it
is still that licensee or permittee’s responsibility to
ensure that a renewal application is filed prior to
expiration of the current license or permit. [27 CFR
55.46]
51. I have timely filed my application for
renewal of my license (or user’s permit) but I
have not received my new license (or permit).
May I continue in business even though the
expiration date shown on my license (or permit)
has passed? If so, how long?
Yes. You may continue to operate the business
pursuant to your current license or permit until the
application for renewal is acted upon. [5 U.S.C. 558]
52. Can a license or permit be revoked?
Yes. The Division Director for the ATF Division in
which a licensee or permittee is located may revoke
a license or permit if the holder has violated any
Recordkeeping
60
provision of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 40 or its
implementing regulations or has become ineligible
to acquire explosive materials under 18 U.S.C.
842(d). [18 U.S.C. 843(d); 27 CFR 55.71, 55.74]
53. If a Federal explosives licensee or
permittee is indicted for or convicted of a “crime
punishable by imprisonment for a term
exceeding one year”, may he or she continue
operations under the license or permit?
As stated in the answer to Question 3, a person
under indictment for, or convicted of, a crime
punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding
one year is not eligible to be issued a license or
permit. However, a licensee or permittee who is
indicted for, or convicted of, such a crime during the
term of his or her existing license or permit is not
barred from licensed or permitted operations for 30
days after the date of the indictment or the date the
conviction becomes final. If the licensee or
permittee files an application for relief from
disabilities within such 30-day period, he or she may
continue licensed or permit operations while the
application is pending. If a relief application is not
filed during that period, the licensee or permittee
may not continue operations beyond such 30-day
period. The right of a licensee to continue licensed
or permit operations beyond such 30-day period is
also conditioned on the licensee or permittee timely
filing a license or permit renewal application
disclosing that the applicant has been indicted for,
or convicted of, the crime. A licensee or permittee
may not continue operations beyond 30 days
following the date the Director issues notification
that the relief application has been denied (see also
Question 28). [18 U.S.C. 845(b); 27 CFR 55.142]
54. When may sales of explosive materials by
licensed dealers be made to residents of
adjoining States who do not hold Federal
explosives licenses or permits?
Sales may be made to such out-of-State
residents only if their State of residence has
enacted specific legislation allowing its residents to
purchase explosive materials in a “contiguous” or
bordering State and the sale otherwise meets the
requirements of the law and regulations. (see also
Question 8). [18 U.S.C. 842(b); 27 CFR
55.26(a)(1), 55.105(c)]

55. Does a licensee or permittee have to keep
records of the acquisition, distribution, and
storage of explosive materials?
Yes. A licensee or permittee must keep records
of all acquisitions, dispositions, and storage of
explosive materials. [18 U.S.C. 842(f), 847; 27
CFR 55.107, Subpart G]
56. How do licensees and permittees account
for explosive materials in their records?
If acquisitions are recorded by weight, then
disbursements must also be recorded by weight. If
acquisitions are recorded by physical count, then
disbursements must also be recorded by physical
count.
57. Must a licensee or permittee maintain a
daily summary of magazine transactions?
Yes. After the initial inventory required by
regulations has been taken, the inventory shall be
entered in a record of daily transactions. Not later
than the close of the next business day, each
licensee and permittee shall record by
manufacturer’s name or brand name the total
quantity received in and removed from each
magazine during the day and the total remaining on
hand at the end of the day. [27 CFR 55.127]
58. Where must a licensee or permittee keep
the daily summary of magazine transactions?
The records must either be kept at each
magazine or at a centrally located area on the
business premises, provided a separate record of
daily transactions is maintained for each magazine.
[27 CFR 55.127]
59. When and how must a report be made of
a shortage or theft of explosive materials?
See Questions 12 and 13.
60. Where may additional copies of ATF Form
5400.4, “Explosives Transaction Record”, be
obtained?
Requests for forms should be mailed to the ATF
Distribution Center, 7943 Angus Court, Springfield,
Virginia 22153, or requested by telephone at (703)
455-7801. [27 CFR 55.21(c)]
61. What forms will a buyer of black powder
have to sign at the time of purchase?
If 50 pounds or less of commercially
manufactured black powder is being purchased,
and the powder is intended to be used solely for
sporting, recreational, or cultural purposes in
61
antique firearms as defined in 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(16)
or in antique devices exempt from the term
“destructive device” in 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(4), no form
is required. If the powder is being purchased for
any other purpose (regardless of quantity), ATF
Form 5400.4 shall be signed by the buyer. [18
U.S.C. 845(a)(5); 18 U.S.C. 926(c); 27 CFR
55.141(b)]
62. Is there a requirement for licensees and
permittees to make an annual inventory of
explosive materials on hand?
An inventory is required to be taken at least once
a year. [27 CFR 55.122-125]
63. Must ATF Form 5400.4, “Explosives
Transaction Record”, be executed at the time of
delivery?
ATF F 5400.4 must be executed before explosive
materials are distributed to nonlicensees or
nonpermittees. “Distribute” is defined as “sell, issue,
give, transfer, or otherwise dispose of.” Therefore,
an ATF F 5400.4 must be executed at the time the
materials are sold, even if they are delivered after
purchase. [27 CFR 55.126(b)]
64. Who must complete and sign ATF Form
5400.4 for the distributor?
Section B of ATF Form 5400.4 contains the
following statement:
“On the basis of: (1) the statements in Section A;
(2) the verification of identity noted in Section B; and
(3) my knowledge of Federal and State laws and
local ordinances relating to explosive materials, it is
my belief that it is not unlawful for me to sell, deliver,
or otherwise dispose of the explosive materials
described in Item 21, or on the attached list, to the
person identified in Section A.”
Therefore, the person who must sign ATF Form
5400.4 for the distributor is the person who
examined the purchaser’s statements in Section A
of the form and verified the purchaser’s identity. [27
CFR 55.126]
65. May I keep computerized records?
Explosives licensees and permittees wishing to
use an automated data processing system to keep
the required Federal explosives records must first
obtain an approved variance in accordance with 27
CFR 55.22. In addition to meeting other
requirements, the computerized records must
contain the information required by the regulations
in 27 CFR Part 55, Subpart G.

Storage
66. Who must meet storage requirements?
All persons who store explosive materials must
store them in conformity with the provisions of
Subpart K of the regulations, unless the person or

55.201(a)]
67. What are the classes of explosive
materials for storage purposes?
There are 3 classes of explosive materials:
(a) High explosives (for example, dynamite, flash
powders, and bulk salutes);
(b) Low explosives (for example, black powder,
safety fuses, igniters, igniter cords, fuse lighters, and
“display fireworks” classified as UN0333, UN0334,
or UNO335 by U.S. Department of Transportation
regulations at 49 CFR 172.101, except for bulk
salutes; and
(c) Blasting agents (for example, ammonium
nitrate-fuel oil and certain water gels). [27 CFR
55.202]
68. May a person store explosive materials in
a residence or dwelling?
No. [27 CFR 55.208(b), 55.210(b), 55.211(b)]
69. What is the “American Table of
Distances”?
This table lists the minimum acceptable distances
separating explosives magazines from inhabited
buildings, passenger railroads, public highways, and
other explosives magazines. The table is contained
in 27 CFR 55.218.
70. When low and high explosives are stored
together, how is the distance determined to
meet the table of distance requirements?
The table of distances at 27 CFR 55.218 would
be applied using the total weight of explosive
materials in the magazine. [27 CFR 55.218]
71. Is it necessary to inspect my explosives
magazines on a regular basis?
Yes. Any person storing explosives must inspect
the magazines at least once every 7 days to
determine whether there has been unauthorized
entry or attempted entry into the magazines or
unauthorized removal of the contents of the
magazines. [27 CFR 55.204]
62
72. What are the requirements for making
changes or additions to an approved storage
facility?
Making changes in construction to an approved
explosives magazine or adding a magazine require
that ATF be notified. Mobile or portable type 5
magazines and magazines used for the temporary
(under 24 hours) storage of explosive materials are
exempt from this requirement. See 27 CFR 55.63
for details.
73. Is any type of black powder fuse exempt
from storage requirements?
Yes, 3/32-inch and other external burning
pyrotechnic hobby fuses are exempt from the
requirements of Federal explosives laws and
regulations. [18 U.S.C. 845(a)(4); 27 CFR 55.11:
definition of “ammunition”, 55.141(a)(4), 55.141(b)]
74. With the exception of 3/32-inch
pyrotechnic safety fuse for use in small arms,
must black powder fuses generally be stored in
approved explosives magazines?
Yes. Generally igniter fuses, time fuses, blasting
fuses, safety fuses, or other black powder fuses by
whatever name known, must be stored in approved
magazines.
75. Is smokeless powder designed for use in
small arms ammunition subject to the
explosives storage requirements?
No. Smokeless powder designed for use in small
arms ammunition is exempt from regulation under
18 U.S.C. Chapter 40 and the regulations in 27
CFR Part 55. However, smokeless powder
intended for this purpose is subject to control under
27 CFR Part 178, “Commerce in Firearms and
Ammunition”, as a component of ammunition (see
also Question 17). [18 U.S.C. 845(a)(4); 27 CFR
55.11: definition of “ammunition”, 55.141(a)(4)]
76. My office building, in which several
company employees work during the day in
connection with my explosives business, is
located in the general area of my explosives
magazine. Do the regulations and the Table of
Distances apply to this building as an
“inhabited building”?
No. A building such as an office building or repair
shop which is a part of the premises of an
explosives business and is used by the business in
connection with the manufacture, transportation,

storage, or use of explosive materials is not an
“inhabited building”. [27 CFR 55.11: definition of
“inhabited building”, 55.218]
77. I bought 12 sticks of dynamite to blast
stumps on my property. I have 4 sticks left
over. May I give them to my brother, who does
not have a Federal explosives license or
permit?
Yes, if your brother resides in the same State in
which you reside and he is not within any of the
categories of persons to whom explosive materials
may not be lawfully distributed. If either you or your
brother store the dynamite, storage must be in
conformity with Federal explosives regulations (see
Question 66). [18 U.S.C. 842(j); 27 CFR 55.29,
55.201]
78. Am I re quired to notify my State or local
authorities about my explosives storage
magazines?
Yes. Any person who stores explosive materials
must notify the fire department having jurisdiction
over the site where explosive materials are
manufactured or stored. Notification must be made
orally by the end of the day on which storage begins
and in writing within 48 hours from the time storage
began. The notification must include the type of
explosive materials, magazine capacity, and the
location of each storage site. [27 CFR 55.11:
Definition of “authority having jurisdiction for fire
safety”, 27 CFR 55.201(f)]

with a detonator attached to the shock tube as an
integral part need not be disassembled and stored
separately. [27 CFR 55.213(b)]
81. Can detonators be stored with detonating
cord?
No. However, products which are manufactured
with a detonator attached to the detonating cord as
an integral part need not be disassembled and
stored separately. [27 CFR 55.213]
82. Are there storage requirements for
oxidizers, such as ammonium nitrate?
Generally, no. However, if ammonium nitrate is
located within the sympathetic detonation distance
of explosives, or blasting agents, it must be stored in
accordance with the table of distances in 27 CFR
55.220.
83. Are State and local government agencies
required to store their explosive materials in
conformity with Federal storage regulations?
Yes. Although Federal agencies are exempt from
the storage requirements, there is no exemption in

“articles pyrotechnic”, are exempt from these laws
and regulations. [27 CFR 55.11: definitions of
“articles pyrotechnic” and “consumer fireworks”,
55.141(a)(7)]
87. Must partially assembled display
fireworks be removed from a drying building for
overnight storage?
Yes. At the end of a day’s manufacturing
operations, all dry explosive powders and mixtures
and partially assembled and finished display
fireworks must be removed from fireworks process
buildings and stored in a magazine meeting the
storage requirements in 27 CFR Part 55, Subpart K.
[27 CFR 55.221]
88. What areas of a fireworks manufacturing
plant are considered to be "fireworks process
buildings?"
Fireworks process buildings include any buildings
in which pyrotechnic compositions or explosives
materials are mixed, pressed, finished, or
Plastic Explosives
91. What is a plastic explosive?
A plastic explosive is defined as “an explosive
material in flexible or elastic sheet form formulated
with one or more high explosives which in their pure
-4
form has a vapor pressure less than 10 Pa at a
0
temperature of 25 C., is formulated with a binder
material, and is as a mixture malleable or flexible at
normal room temperature." [18 U.S.C. 841(q); 27
CFR 55.180(d)(4)]
92. What plastic explosives are required to
contain detection agents?

98. Are police departments exempt from the
prohibition against possessing unmarked
plastic explosives after April 24, 1999?
U.S. Military Explosives
99. Would an ATF license or permit be
needed to demilitarize (demil) U.S. military
explosives?
As long as the demil operator has a valid
Department of Defense contract to perform such
operations, the operations would be exempt from 27
CFR Part 55 and no license or permit would be
required. However, if title to the explosive materials
has passed from the military to the demil operator,
then such operations may be regulated by ATF
(e.g., storage, sales, manufacturing) and an ATF
license or permit may be needed. Contact the
nearest ATF field office for further information. [18
U.S.C. 845(a)(3), (a)(6) and 27 CFR 55.141(a)(3),

destroy them or abandon them to ATF. Contact the
nearest ATF field office for information. [18 U.S.C.
842(n); 27 CFR 55.180(c)(1)]
Yes, provided that all the explosive materials in
question are manufactured under a government
contract. Any explosive materials manufactured in
anticipation of receiving a government contract
would not qualify for this exemption.
If the contractor manufactures any explosive
materials not pursuant to a U.S. military contract,
that manufacture and those explosive materials are
subject to all requirements of the law and
regulations. [18 U.S.C. 845(a)(3), (a)(6); 27 CFR
55.26, 55.41, 55.141(a)(3), (a)(5)]

ATF Explosives Rulings and Procedures
The following are digests of ATF
determinations regarding explosive matters
which are of special significance to Federal
explosives licensees and permittees and to ATF
personnel. The full text of each of these
determinations can be found in the ATF
Cumulative Bulletin (1973-1978), and is cited by
year, “CB”, and page number at the end of each
item.
On August 7, 1981, Part 181 of Title 27, CFR

Requirements for descriptions of
explosives storage facilities.
ATF Proc. 75-4
This procedure (which was incorporated in
Industry Circular 75-10; effective November 1,
1975) revised requirements for descriptions of
explosives storage facilities that must be filed by
applicants intending to store explosive materials.
68
The Director, ATF, determined that this
additional descriptive information was and is
required in order to ensure compliance with the
law and regulations. Accordingly, Forms 4705
and 4707 (now ATF F 5400.13/5400.16,
“Application for License or Permit”) were
revised.
Following is the text of the Procedure, as
amended:
Secs. 3 & 4. Licenses and Permits. A person
intending to engage in business as an importer,
manufacturer or dealer in explosive materials, or
who is intending to acquire, transport, ship,
import or receive explosive materials in
interstate or foreign commerce for his own use
and not for resale, shall complete ATF F
5400.13/5400.16, “Application For License or
Permit,” in accordance with the instructions on
the form, and forward the form with the license
or permit fee to the office specified on the form.
If approved, the Chief, National Licensing Center
will issue a license or permit to the applicant. At
the time of renewal of a license or permit, the
Chief, National Licensing Center may require the
filing of a new or amended application, or
additional descriptive pages, to be attached to
the application upon a determination that the
currently approved application is inaccurate or
does not fully describe the storage facilities. If
the application is denied, the applicant will be
advised in writing of the reasons for the denial.
Sec. 5. Storage.
.01 If explosive materials are to be stored, the
requirements of 27 CFR Part 55, Subpart K—
Storage, must be complied with before the
application will be approved. An applicant for a
license or permit who intends to store explosive
materials shall fully describe the intended
storage facilities to support the applicant’s
affirmation that the storage facilities meet the
requirements set forth in 27 CFR Part 55,
Subpart K—Storage.
.02 The description should, as a minimum,
include the following information:
(a) The type of magazine (building, igloo,
tunnel, portable box, portable trailer, etc.).
(b) The location and distance from applicant’s
place of business.
(c) The distance to the next nearest storage
magazine.
(d) A description of significant terrain features
and physical structures, such as buildings,

roads, utilities and other facilities which
could be damaged if the magazine
exploded. Indicate the distance between
the magazine and the feature.
(e) The materials (including dimensions and
thicknesses) used for the structure (e.g.,
concrete, corrugated iron over wood,
plywood, tin and earth, etc.).
(f) The security, physical safeguards, locks,
safety equipment, and anti-theft
measures.
(g) The dimensions and capacity of each
magazine.
(h) The class of explosive materials to be
stored in each magazine.
(i) The owner(s) of the magazine, if other
than the applicant.
(j) The names and telephone numbers of
individuals who could open the magazines
for inspection by ATF officers.
(k) Any special conditions, such as
inaccessibility in winter, etc.
(l) [ADDENDUM] A diagram of the premises,
providing much of the required descriptive
information set out above (preparation by
an engineer is not required). [75 CB 79]
2. 27 CFR 55.11: MEANING OF TERMS
(Also § 55.206)
An office or repair shop used in connection
with the manufacture, etc. of explosive
materials is not an “inhabited building.”
ATF Rul. 75-20
ATF has held that a building, such as an office
or repair shop, which is a part of the premises of
an explosives manufacturer and is used in
connection with the manufacture, transportation,
storage, or use of explosive materials, is not an
“inhabited building.”
Section 55.11 of 27 CFR defines inhabited
building as “any building regularly occupied in
whole or in part as a habitation for human
beings, or any church, schoolhouse, railroad
station, store, or other structure where people
are accustomed to assemble, except any
building occupied in connection with the
manufacture, transportation, storage, or use of
explosive materials.”
Regulations in 27 CFR §§ 55.206 and 55.218
set forth provisions concerning the location of
storage facilities and the minimum distances
69
such storage facilities may be located from,
among other things, “inhabited buildings.”
These provisions are intended to provide
protection to persons who inhabit buildings
located near premises where explosives are
manufactured, stored, etc. However, it is the
intent of § 55.11 to exempt buildings used by the
explosives industry in connection with the
manufacture, transportation, storage, or use of
explosive materials from the table of distance
requirements on “inhabited buildings.” [75 CB
64]
3. 27 CFR 55.207: CONSTRUCTION OF
TYPE 1 MAGAZINES
(Also § 55.210)
Certain explosives storage facilities
meeting standards of construction
prescribed by the Department of Defense
Explosives Safety Board for such storage are
approved by the Bureau.
ATF Rul. 75-21
ATF has held that explosives storage facilities
with smooth-finished concrete floors that were
constructed under contract for the use of the
Department of Defense (DOD) and that are
presently being leased to licensees and
permittees for the storage of commercial
explosives are considered to be in compliance
with the requirements for nonsparking floors, as
set forth in 27 CFR §§ 55.207(a)(4), 55.207(b),
and 55.210, for the storage of all types of fully
packaged explosives, pyrotechnics and
propellants, with the exception of black powder.
Any other such magazines which have smooth
finished concrete floors and which meet or
exceed DOD construction specifications will also
be considered to be in compliance with the
requirements of Part 55 with respect to
nonsparking floors.
It is the responsibility of the licensee or
permittee to provide verification that such
facilities were manufactured under DOD
specifications or that the facilities meet or
exceed such specification standards.
If the Division Director determines that the
concrete floors of type 1 or type 4 magazines do
not meet the preceding requirements, he will
require such floors to be covered with a
nonsparking material, such as epoxy paint or
mastic. [75 CB 67]

4. 27 CFR 55.41: LICENSES AND
PERMITS—GENERAL
Certain companies that manufacture
explosive materials for use in their own
operations are required to obtain licenses as
manufacturers of explosive materials.
ATF Rul. 75-31
ATF has held that companies, such as public
utility companies engaged in line and facility
construction, which manufacture explosives on a
regular or continual basis are considered to be
engaged in the business of manufacturing
explosive materials and must be appropriately
licensed as required by 18 U.S.C. 842.
The term “manufacturer” is defined in 18
U.S.C. 841(h) as “any person engaged in the
business of manufacturing explosive materials
for purposes of sale or distribution or for his own
use.”
Although the term “engaged in the business” is
not susceptible to a rigid definition within 18
U.S.C. §§ 841-848, it is interpreted to imply an
element of continuity or habitual practice; an
element clearly present in the operations of
companies described herein.
Therefore, these companies are considered to
be “engaged in the business” and must be
licensed as explosives manufacturers. [75 CB
65]
5. 27 CFR 55.109: IDENTIFICATION OF
EXPLOSIVE MATERIALS
Methods of marking containers of
explosive materials are prescribed.
ATF Rul. 75-35
ATF has held that any method or combination
of methods for affixing the required marks to the
immediate container of explosive materials, or
outside container used in the packaging thereof,
is authorized provided the identifying marks:
(1) Are legible
(2) Show all required information; and,
(3) Are not rendered indecipherable by
extended periods of storage.
Where it is desired to utilize a coding system
and to omit printed markings on the container, a
letterhead application displaying the coding to
be used and the manner of its application shall
70
be filed with and approved by the Director, ATF,
prior to the use of the proposed coding. Further,
where a manufacturer operates his plant for only
one shift during the day, the shift of manufacture
need not be shown.
It was found that liquid components of
explosive materials stored for a period of time in
polyethylene or other soft containers would seep
through the container walls, tending to render
illegible the inked, identifying marks on the
container.
A manufacturer’s proposal [subsequently
approved] of using a system of perforated
numbers and code symbols (similar to that used
on cancelled checks) to mark containers in
addition to other identifying marks stamped in
ink, was determined to continue to provide the
identification required by 27 CFR 55.109, even if
the ink later became illegible. [75 CB 65]
6. 27 CFR 55.11: MEANING OF TERMS—
STATE OF RESIDENCE
“State of residence” of business entities
who use explosive materials; distribution of
explosive materials by licensees to out-of-
State business entities other than licensees
and permittees; and distribution to
nonresident employees of such entities are
discussed.
ATF Rul. 76-4
ATF was asked to interpret the term “State of
residence” (in § 55.11) as it:
(1) Pertains to the distribution of explosive
materials to out-of-State corporations and other
business entities other than licensees and
permittees; and
(2) Relates to the distribution of explosive
materials to nonresident employees of such
business entities.
The Business Entity
If a person is a corporation or other business
entity, “State of residence” means the State in
which such corporation or other business entity
maintains a “place of business.” A business
entity establishing another “place of business” or
“job site” in another State would acquire a “State
of residence” in that State as well. This means
that a company engaged in construction work
would acquire a residence in each State wherein
its work is performed. Its place of business in

those States would be the job sites at which
business is carried on. It would not be essential
to a determination of its State of residence that a
branch office be maintained in, or administrative
work be performed in, the States where job sites
are located.
Such a company would not need a permit to
acquire explosive materials from a licensee in a
State for use at job sites located therein. Form
5400.4, “Explosives Transaction Record,” would
show the out-of-State addresses of the business
entity as the principal place of business, and the
location of the job site as the local place of
business.
Nonresident Employees
The purpose of the data requested on Form
5400.4 is to identify the person authorized by the
business entity to make the purchase of
explosive materials on the entity’s behalf and to
assure the distributor that such person appears
on the required certified list of names of
representatives or agents authorized by the
business entity to acquire the materials.
Regulations (27 CFR § 55.105(e)), implementing
Title 18 U.S.C. 842(f), in part, provide that each
business entity acquiring explosive materials
shall furnish the distributing licensed dealer with
a current, certified list of the names of
representatives or agents authorized to acquire
explosive materials on behalf of such business
entity. The purpose of the data requested on
Form 5400.8, “Explosives Delivery Record,” is to
identify the employee of the business entity or
the employee of a carrier accepting delivery of
explosive materials on behalf of the distributee
at the distributor’s business premises.
Therefore:
In the case of business entities, the
information required on ATF Forms 5400.4 and
5400.8 with respect to employees or agents
arranging for the distribution is not for the
purpose of establishing the residence of such
persons but only for identification purposes. [76
CB 104]
7. 27 CFR 55.126: EXPLOSIVES
TRANSACTION RECORD
Under certain conditions, a single Form
5400.4 may be used to cover a series of
deliveries.
71
ATF Rul. 76-10
Under the provisions of 27 CFR § 55.126, a
sale or other distribution by a licensee or
permittee shall not be made to a nonlicensee or
nonpermittee unless the transaction is recorded
on a Form 5400.4. Under certain conditions, a
single Form 5400.4 may be used to cover a
series of deliveries.
When an initial sale has been consummated,
with partial deliveries to be made in the
immediate future, the requirements of § 55.126
will have been satisfied if the following steps are
taken:
(1) Form 5400.4 shall be executed at the time
the sale is initially made, although delivery
of the explosive material is extended over
a period of time not to exceed 30 days.
(2) The executed Form 5400.4 shall
subsequently be noted to accurately
reflect the date of each separate delivery
and describe each separate lot of
explosive materials delivered.
(3) In lieu of showing the separate deliveries
on the Form 5400.4, the proprietor may
attach to the executed form a copy of the
delivery record or a copy of the bill of
lading or commercial invoice covering
each delivery; provided that, as to each
such delivery, the attachment contains the
date of the delivery and all the information
required by Item 21 of Form 5400.4.
(4) All other regulatory requirements and
instructions relating to the completion of
the form must be complied with. [76 CB
105]
8. 27 CFR 55.207: CONSTRUCTION OF
TYPE 1 STORAGE FACILITIES
(Also § 55.208)
Alternate construction standards for
storage facilities for explosive materials are
prescribed.
ATF Rul. 76-18
Section 842(j) of 18 U.S.C. states: “It shall be
unlawful for any person to store any explosive
material in a manner not in conformity with
regulations promulgated by the Secretary. In
promulgating such regulations, the Secretary
shall take into consideration the class, type, and
quantity of explosive materials to be stored, as

well as the standards of safety and security
recognized in the explosives industry.”
The regulations in 27 CFR §§ 55.207 and
55.208 prescribe types of storage facilities for
explosive materials and provide (among other
things) that such storage facilities shall be bullet-
resistant. Section 55.201(b) provides that
alternate storage facilities may be authorized for
the storage of explosive materials when it is
shown that such alternate facilities are or will be
constructed in a manner substantially equivalent
to the standards of construction contained in the
applicable regulations.
The term “bullet-resistant” means resistant to
penetration of a bullet of 150 grain M2 ball
ammunition having a nominal muzzle velocity of
2700 feet per second fired from a .30 caliber rifle
from a distance of 100 feet perpendicular to the
wall or door.
It has been determined that a wide range of
construction criteria meet the bullet-resistant
requirements of regulations for construction of
storage facilities for explosive materials.
In order to promote standards of safety and
security in the storage of explosive materials
while allowing the industry a wide latitude in the
selection of construction materials, it is held that
storage facilities (magazines) that are
constructed according to the following minimum
specifications are bullet-resistant and meet the
requirements of the regulations as set forth in 27
CFR Part 55 (All steel and wood dimensions are
actual thicknesses. To meet the concrete block
and brick dimensions indicated, the
manufacturers’ represented thicknesses may be
used).
(a) Exterior of 5/8 inch steel, lined with an
interior of any type of nonsparking
material.
(b) Exterior of 1/2 inch steel, lined with an
interior of not less than 3/8 inch plywood.
(c) Exterior of 3/8 inch steel, lined with an
interior of two inches of hardwood.
(d) Exterior of 3/8 inch steel, lined with an
interior of three inches of softwood or 2
1/4 inches of plywood.
(e) Exterior of 1/4 inch steel, lined with an
interior of three inches of hardwood.
(f) Exterior of 1/4 inch steel, lined with an
interior of five inches of softwood or 5 1/4
inches of plywood.
(g) Exterior of 1/4 inch steel, lined with an
intermediate layer of two inches of
hardwood and an interior lining of 1 1/2
inches of plywood.
72
(h) Exterior of 3/16 inch steel, lined with an
interior of four inches of hardwood.
(i) Exterior of 3/16 inch steel, lined with an
interior of seven inches of softwood or 6
3/4 inches of plywood.
(j) Exterior of 3/16 inch steel, lined with an
intermediate layer of three inches of
hardwood and an interior lining of 3/4 inch
of plywood.
(k) Exterior of 1/8 inch steel, lined with an
interior of five inches of hardwood.
(l) Exterior of 1/8 inch steel, lined with an
interior of nine inches of softwood.
(m) Exterior of 1/8 inch steel, lined with an
intermediate layer of four inches of
hardwood and an interior lining of 3/4 inch
plywood.
(n) Exterior of any type of fire-resistant
material which is structurally sound, lined
with an intermediate layer of four inches of
solid concrete block, OR four inches of
solid brick OR four inches of solid
concrete; AND, an interior lining of 1/2
inch plywood placed securely against the
masonry lining.
(o) Standard eight inch concrete block with
voids filled with well-tamped sand/cement
mixture.
(p) Standard eight inch solid brick.
(q) Exterior of any type of fire-resistant
material which is structurally sound, lined
with an intermediate six inch space filled
with well-tamped dry sand or well-tamped
sand/cement mixture.
(r) Exterior of 1/8 inch steel, lined with a first
intermediate layer of 3/4 inch plywood, a
second intermediate layer of 3 5/8 inches

mixture and an interior lining of 3/4 inch
plywood.
(s) Exterior of any type of fire-resistant
material, lined with a first intermediate
layer of 3/4 inch plywood, a second
intermediate layer of 3 5/8 inches well-
tamped dry sand or sand/cement mixture,
a third intermediate layer of 3/4 inch
plywood, and a fourth intermediate layer of
two inches of hardwood OR 14 gauge
steel AND an interior lining of 3/4 inch
plywood.
(t) Eight inch thick solid concrete. [76 CB
106]
9. 27 CFR 55.213: QUANTITY AND
STORAGE RESTRICTIONS

(Also § 55.208)
Alternate magazine construction standards
for storage of electric blasting caps with
other explosive materials are prescribed.
ATF Rul. 77-24
Section 842(j) of 18 U.S.C. states: “It shall be
unlawful for any person to store any explosive
material in a manner not in conformity with
regulations promulgated by the Secretary. In
promulgating such regulations, the Secretary
shall take into consideration the class, type, and
quantity of explosive materials to be stored, as
well as the standards of safety and security
recognized in the explosives industry.”
The regulations in 27 CFR § 55.213 restrict
the storage of blasting caps with other explosive
materials. Section 55.201(b) provides that
alternate storage magazines may be authorized
for the storage of explosive materials when it is
shown that such alternate magazines are or will
be constructed in a manner substantially
equivalent to the standards of construction
contained in the applicable regulations.
ATF recognizes that the transportation and
storage of explosive materials in the same
vehicle along with electric blasting caps is often
desired. The Institute of Makers of Explosives
established a recommended standard for such
transport in their Safety Library Publication No.
22, dated November 5, 1971 [revised January
1985]. This standard prescribes the minimum
construction criteria for:
(a) A container securely attached—
(1) Above the cab of the vehicle (see
Figure 1, Appendix A), and
(2) To the vehicle frame under the cargo
space (see Figure 2, Appendix A), or
(b) A built-in compartment in the cargo space
of the vehicle (see Appendix B).
In addition to motorized vehicles,
consideration was also given for the use of
similar criteria on portable wheeled trailers being
used as magazines under § 55.208(a) of the
regulations (see Appendix E).
In order to insure standards of safety and
security in the storage of explosive materials
while allowing the industry a proper latitude in
the construction of magazines, it is held that
vehicles used for transporting and for storing
explosive materials that are constructed in
conformity with the standards listed below, and
in compliance with all other safety and security
provisions contained in Part 55 (e.g., effectively
73
immobilized when unattended) will meet the
requirements of ATF regulations.
Even though constructed on the same vehicle,
each compartment will be considered as a
separate magazine. The two magazines on the
vehicle will, however, be considered as one
magazine when applying the American Table of
Distances [see Table at § 55.218].
Construction Standards For Storage of
Electric Blasting Caps (Non Mass-
Detonating)
a. The container or compartment must provide
for total enclosure of the electric blasting
caps.
b. The partition between the explosives
storage compartment and the electric
blasting cap compartment must be of
laminate construction consisting of A/C
grade or better exterior plywood, gypsum
board [sheetrock] and low carbon steel
plates. In order of arrangement, the
laminate must conform to the following, with
minimum thickness of each lamination as
indicated:
1/2 inch plywood
1/2 inch gypsum board [sheetrock],
1/8 inch low carbon steel, and,
1/4 inch plywood,
with the 1/4 inch plywood facing the
explosives storage compartment. See
Appendix C for details of laminate
construction. The door to the electric
blasting cap compartment must be of metal
construction or solid wood covered with
metal; the outside walls and top must be of
the same construction as the rest of the
vehicle or trailer. If high explosives or bullet
sensitive explosive materials are stored in
the vehicle, then the storage compartment of
the vehicle must be constructed so as to be
bullet-resistant.
c. As an alternative to the construction
requirements shown in paragraph b, a
container for use only as illustrated in
Appendix A may be used when constructed
as follows:
1. The top, lid or door, and the sides and
bottom of each container must be of
laminate construction consisting of A/C
grade or better exterior plywood, solid
hardwood, gypsum board [sheetrock], and
sheet metal. In order of arrangement, the
laminate must conform to the following,

with minimum thickness of each
lamination as indicated:
1/4 inch plywood,
1 inch solid hardwood,
1/2 inch plywood,
1/2 inch gypsum board [sheetrock]
(OR 1/4 inch particle board), and
22 gauge sheet metal,
constructed inside to outside in that
order. See Appendix D for details of
laminate construction.
2. The hardwood must be fastened
together with wood screws, the 1/2 inch
plywood must be fastened to the
hardwood with wood screws, the inner 1/4
inch plywood must be fastened to the
hardwood with adhesive, and the 22
gauge sheet metal must be attached to
the exterior of the container with screws.
d. The laminate composite material must be
securely bound together by waterproof
adhesive or other equally effective means.
74
e. The steel plates at the joints of laminations
must be secured by continuous fillet welds.
f. All interior surfaces of the container or
compartment must be constructed so as to
prevent contact of contents with any
sparking metal.
g. There must be direct access to the container
or into a compartment from outside the
vehicle.
h. Each container or compartment must have a
snug fitting continuous piano-type
hinged lid or door equipped with a locking
device (or devices).
i. Without permitting direct access to contents
under normal conditions, the locking or
hinging mechanisms must permit at least
one edge of the lid or door to rise or move
outward at least 1/2 inch when subjected to
internal pressure.
j. The exterior of the container or compartment
must be weather-resistant. [77 CB 191]

General Information
EFFECT OF 18 U.S.C. Chapter 40 ON
THE FIREWORKS INDUSTRY
[CAUTION! This item discusses Federal
requirements only. Please contact your
State/local authorities for any additional
requirements.]
Title XI of the Organized Crime Control Act of
1970 (18 U.S.C. Chapter 40) establishes
controls over explosive materials, including
black powder and other pyrotechnic
compositions commonly used in fireworks. Part
55 of Title 27, Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), contains the regulations which implement
Title XI.
Section 55.141(a)(7) exempts “the importation,
distribution, and storage of fireworks classified
as UN0336, UN0337, UN0431, or UN0432
explosives by the U.S. Department of
Transportation at 49 CFR 172.101 and generally
known as ‘consumer fireworks’ or ‘articles
pyrotechnic.’” Section 55.141(a)(7) does not
exempt “display fireworks,” as defined in 55.11.
With Respect to Fireworks:
Who needs a license?
1. Manufacturers of black powder;
2. Manufacturers of any other explosive
material used in manufacturing consumer
fireworks or display fireworks; and
3. Importers of, or dealers in, display
fireworks.
With Respect to Fireworks:
Who needs a permit?
1. A person acquiring or transporting display
fireworks interstate for his own use and not for
resale. [Agencies of the United States or of any
State or political subdivisions thereof are exempt
from permit requirements.]; and
2. A person, other than a licensee, acquiring
or transporting explosive materials interstate for
use in manufacturing display fireworks or
consumer fireworks.
With Respect to Fireworks:
77
Who may not need a license or
permit?
Frequently, persons contracting for display
fireworks (such as would be appropriate for
Fourth of July observances) from an out-of-State
dealer receive a total service, including the
services of a pyrotechnician who transports
display fireworks in interstate commerce to the
site of the display and conducts or supervises
the display. In these instances, the customers
purchase the dealer’s services rather than the
explosive materials themselves, and the cost of
the services includes the dealer’s expense in
providing the fireworks utilized.
When business is transacted in this manner,
the customers purchasing and receiving the
services need not obtain Federal explosives
licenses or permits under Part 55 since they are
not actually acquiring explosive materials
outside their States of residence, and they are
not receiving such materials or causing them to
be transported in interstate commerce.
If the person furnishing the services is a
licensee or permittee, the person’s interstate
transportation of explosive materials to the
display sites would be conduct authorized by the
license or permit.
With Respect to Fireworks:
Types of permits
1. User permit: Allows a permittee to
acquire, transport, ship and receive display
fireworks in interstate or foreign commerce for
his or her own use and not for resale. This
permit is issued at a cost of $100 for a 3-year
period and is renewable at a cost of $50 for a 3-
year period.
2. User-limited of display fireworks permit:
Identical to the user permit but issued for a
single transaction, only. The fee is $75; the
permit is nonrenewable. A new permit must be
obtained for each transaction.
With Respect to Fireworks:
Storage
The law prohibits any person from storing any
explosive materials in a manner not in

conformity with the regulations promulgated by
the Secretary of the Treasury (18 U.S.C. 842(j)).
Pursuant to this section, the Secretary has
prescribed storage regulations in 27 CFR Part
55, Subpart K. Since display fireworks are not
exempt, they must be stored in conformity with
the regulations.
Display fireworks generally contain perchlorate
mixture explosives, potassium chlorate base
explosive mixtures, and black powder, which are
entered on the List of Explosive Materials with
numerous others. (The List is annually compiled
and readily available without charge from the
address set out in 27 CFR 55.23.)
Display fireworks must be stored as low
explosives in magazines meeting, at a minimum,
the requirements for type 4 storage magazines
prescribed by 27 CFR 55.210 unless they
contain other classes of explosives. Bulk
salutes must be stored as high explosives in
type 1 or type 2 magazines. The net weight of
the explosive materials contained in the display
fireworks may be used in determining
compliance with table of distance requirements.
To determine the actual weight of the materials,
it may be necessary to contact their
manufacturers.
The manufacturer of exempt or nonexempt
fireworks having stocks of explosive materials
on hand to be used in the manufacture of
fireworks must store the stocks in conformity
with applicable storage requirements.

DEALERS IN EXPLOSIVES MUST:
Have a Federal license.
Have proper storage facilities.
Keep accurate and complete records.
Verify that each out-of-State buyer has a
Federal license or permit.
Have nonlicensees/nonpermittees execute
Forms 5400.4, “Explosives Transaction Record.”
Have employees of buyers or carriers to whom
delivery is made at a distributor’s premises
execute Forms 5400.8, “Explosives Delivery
Record.”
Verify buyers’ identities.
USERS OF EXPLOSIVES—PERMITTEES AND
NONPERMITTEES:
Federal permits are required of those who
purchase explosive materials from outside their
State of residence and /or transport them
interstate. The permittee must keep complete
and accurate records of the acquisitions and
dispositions of explosives materials.
Nonpermittees may buy and use explosives
materials in their State of residence without
obtaining a Federal permit. They must give
proper identification to the dealer and execute
Form 5400.4, “Explosives Transaction Record.”
NO PERSON SHALL STORE ANY
EXPLOSIVE MATERIAL IN A MANNER NOT
IN CONFORMITY WITH REGULATIONS
ALL PERSONS WILL PROMPTLY REPORT
TO ATF AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES ANY
LOSS OR THEFT OF THEIR EXPLOSIVE
MATERIAL
A FEDERAL LICENSE OR PERMIT DOES
NOT CONFER ANY RIGHT OR PRIVILEGE TO
VIOLATE ANY STATE LAW OR LOCAL
ORDINANCE
The above summary is general and does not
purport to fully convey the Federal explosives
law and regulations pertaining to dealers and
users.

BLACK POWDER
TRANSACTIONS
Public Law 93-639 (1975) allows
nonlicensees/nonpermittees to purchase
commercially manufactured black powder, in
quantities of 50 pounds or less, solely for
sporting, recreational or cultural purposes for
use in antique firearms or antique devices
outside of Federal controls.
A nonlicensee or nonpermittee purchasing
black powder under the exemption need not be
a resident of the State in which the dealer is
located. Also, the categories of persons to
whom the distribution of explosive materials is
prohibited do not apply to black powder
transactions made under the exemption.
Acquisitions of black powder not qualifying
under this exemption are subject to the same
regulatory requirements that govern any other
low explosive.
All persons who sell black powder, regardless
of quantity, must be licensed as explosives
dealers and must provide adequate storage.
EXPLOSIVES SECURITY
Through prompt reporting of losses and thefts
of explosives and increased emphasis on
physical security, explosives licensees and
permittees can contribute greatly to efforts by
Federal, State and local authorities to reduce the
incidence of bombings in the United States.
The following actions are of prime importance:
REPORT . . . thefts or losses of explosives
from magazines, premises, and
job sites promptly, by telephone,
to ATF (toll free: 1-800-800-
3855) and to appropriate local
and/or State authorities.
Because the States and many
municipalities have designated
specific agencies to investigate
the theft or loss of explosives,
licensees and permittees are
urged to be familiar with State
and local reporting procedures
and appropriate contact points.
FOLLOW . . . telephone notification with a
written report on ATF Form
5400.5, “Report of Theft or
Loss—Explosive Materials,” to
the nearest ATF Division Office.
79
OBSERVE . . . activity around magazines,
within business premises, and on
job sites, particularly if strangers
appear to be loitering in the area
in which explosives are being
kept. On-site users should take
special care to assure that
explosives removed from storage
for use on the job are either
detonated or accounted for and
returned to storage.
REVIEW . . . recordkeeping practices to
assure that no discrepancies
exist and that no figures in
reported inventories have been
manipulated, and correct any
clerical errors promptly.
Should any questions arise concerning
explosives security procedures or any aspect of
explosives regulation coming under the
jurisdiction of ATF, do not hesitate to contact
ATF.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The flow of useful information is an essential
ingredient in the effective administration of
regulatory programs. The Treasury
Department’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and
Firearms is the Federal agency charged with
the responsibility of administering laws
impacting four different industries. Two
publications warrant mention:
A. The Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms
Quarterly Bulletin
The Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms Quarterly
Bulletin is the authoritative instrument of the
Bureau for announcing official rulings and
procedures, and for publishing Treasury
decisions, legislation, administrative matters,
and other items of general interest. It
incorporates, into one publication, ATF matters
of public record.
The publication may be purchased from the
Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government
Printing Office, Washington, DC 20402.
B. The Explosives Industry Newsletter
During 1989 ATF developed the Explosives
Newsletter, an information service for Federal
explosives licensees and permittees which is
intended to help explosives industry members

better understand the Federal laws under which
they must operate. It also includes other items
of particular interest to the explosives industry.
There is no charge for the Explosives
Newsletter; licensees and permittees
automatically receive copies when new editions
are published.
Explosives industry members wishing to
express ideas or obtain answers to questions
concerning any of the topics covered may
address suggestions and inquiries to:

LIST OF EXPLOSIVE
MATERIALS
Pursuant to the provisions of section 841(d) of
title 18, U.S.C., and 27 CFR 55.23, the Director,
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, must
revise and publish in the Federal Register at
least annually a list of explosives determined to
be within the coverage of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 40,
Importation, Manufacture, Distribution and
Storage of Explosive Materials. This chapter
covers not only explosives, but also blasting
agents and detonators, all of which are defined
as explosive materials in section 841(c) of title
18, U.S.C. Accordingly, the following is the
1999 List of Explosive Materials subject to
regulation under 18 U.S.C. Chapter 40; it
includes both the list of explosives (including
detonators) required to be published in the
Federal Register and blasting agents.
The list is intended to include any and all
mixtures containing any of the materials on the
list. Materials constituting blasting agents are
marked by an asterisk. While the list is
comprehensive, it is not all inclusive. The fact
that an explosive material may not be on the list
does not mean that it is not within the coverage
of the law if it otherwise meets the statutory
definitions in section 841 of title 18, U.S.C.
Explosive materials are listed alphabetically by
their common names, followed by chemical
names and synonyms in brackets.
This revised list supersedes the List of Explosive
Materials dated May 1, 1998 (Notice No. 360; 63
80

 SPECIAL MESSAGE from the Director
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20220

Dear Federal Explosives Licensee or Permittee:

We are pleased to provide you with this guide to Federal

explosives laws, regulations, and related information.
Since the last publication, several changes have been made
to explosives laws and regulations.

Explosives play a large role in the production of materials

and services that affect virtually all facets of modern
life. The vast majority of explosives produced in the
United States are used in mining, quarrying, and
construction. In 1998, over 6 billion pounds of explosives
were produced here. We look forward to working with
industry members to achieve voluntary compliance with the
Federal explosives laws without creating an unnecessary
burden to explosives businesses, and we welcome ideas and
input that might help us become more effective and
efficient in our regulatory efforts.

Unfortunately, we have become all too familiar with scenes

of violence and destruction in which explosives were used
for illegitimate purposes, or in which accidental
explosions have caused loss of life and untold hardship.
In our efforts to reduce violent crime through regulation
and criminal enforcement, we rely upon the explosives
industry to maintain accurate records and inventories, keep
explosives secure from theft, and report any theft or loss
within 24 hours. As always, we will provide guidance and
assistance regarding these issues whenever possible.

I wish to express my appreciation for your past

cooperation. By responsibly and lawfully distributing and
storing explosives, licensees play an important role in
protecting the American public from violent crime involving
explosives.

Sincerely yours,

Bradley A. Buckles

Department of Justice.
ACTION: Final rule.
SUMMARY: The Department of Justice is
amending the current regulations of the
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms,
and Explosives (ATF) to require
licensed importers to identify by
marking all explosive materials they
import for sale or distribution. Licensed
manufacturers currently are required to
place identification markings on
explosive materials manufactured in the
United States. Similar marking
requirements, however, do not currently
exist for imported explosive materials.
Identification markings are needed on
explosives to help ensure that these
criminal enforcement purposes.
Although ATF does not have regulatory
oversight over foreign manufacturers, it
does have authority over licensed
importers of explosive materials. This
rule will impose identification
requirements on licensed importers of
explosive materials that are
substantially similar to the marking
requirements imposed on domestic
manufacturers.
In addition, the final rule incorporates
into the regulations the provisions of
of marking containers of explosive
the regulations to remove the
requirement that a licensee or permittee
file for an amended license or permit in
order to change the class of explosive
materials described in their license or
permit from a lower to a higher
classification.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco,
Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) is
responsible for implementing Title XI,
Regulation of Explosives (18 United
States Code (U.S.C.) Chapter 40), of the
Organized Crime Control Act of 1970.
One of the stated purposes of the Act is
to reduce the hazards to persons and
property arising from the misuse of
explosive materials. Under section 847
of title 18, U.S.C., the Attorney General
‘‘may prescribe such rules and
regulations as he deems reasonably
necessary to carry out the provisions of
this chapter.’’ Regulations that
implement the provisions of chapter 40
are contained in title 27, Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), part 555
(‘‘Commerce in Explosives’’).
The term ‘‘explosive materials,’’ as
defined in 27 CFR 555.11, means
explosives, blasting agents, water gels,
and detonators. The term includes, but
is not limited to, all items in the ‘‘List
of Explosive Materials’’ provided for in
§ 555.23. Section 555.202 provides for
three classes of explosive materials: (1)
High explosives (e.g., dynamite, flash
powders, and bulk salutes), (2) low
explosives (e.g., black powder, safety
fuses, igniters, igniter cords, fuse
lighters, and display fireworks (except
bulk salutes)), and (3) blasting agents
(e.g., ammonium nitrate-fuel oil and
certain water gels).
Section 555.109 requires licensed
manufacturers of explosive materials to
legibly identify by marking all explosive
materials manufactured for sale or
distribution. The marks required by this
section include the identity of the
manufacturer and the location, date, and
shift of manufacture. This section also
provides that licensed manufacturers
must place the required marks on each
cartridge, bag, or other immediate
container of explosive materials for sale
or distribution, as well as on the outside
container, if any, used for their
packaging.
Exceptions to the marking
requirements are set forth in
§ 555.109(b). This section provides that
(1) licensed manufacturers of blasting
caps are only required to place the
required identification marks on the
containers used for the packaging of
blasting caps, (2) the Director may
27MYR1
 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 102 / Friday, May 27, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
authorize other means of identifying
explosive materials upon receipt of a
letter application from the licensed
manufacturer showing that other
identification is reasonable and will not
hinder the effective administration of
part 555, and (3) the Director may
authorize the use of other means of
identification on fireworks instead of
the required markings specified above.
The current regulations do not require
the marking of imported explosive
materials.
II. Petition—Institute of Makers of
Explosives
The Institute of Makers of Explosives
(IME) filed a petition with ATF, dated
March 7, 2000, requesting an
amendment of the regulations to require
licensed importers to place the same
identification marks on imported
explosive materials that are currently
required for explosive materials
manufactured in the United States. As
stated in the petition, IME is the safety
association of the commercial
explosives industry. Its mission is to
promote safety and the protection of
employees, users, the public and the
environment, and to encourage the
adoption of uniform rules and
regulations in the manufacture,
transportation, storage, handling, use,
and disposal of explosive materials used
in blasting and other operations.
According to the petitioner,
commerce in explosives is a global
enterprise and it expects the quantity of
imported explosives to increase over
time. For example, the petitioner stated
that between 1994 and 1997, imports of
high explosives increased 14-fold to
account for approximately 17 percent of
all high explosives used annually in the
United States. IME further stated that
while unmarked high explosives may
have entered the United States over the
years, it was not until 1999 that the
association became aware of significant
quantities of unmarked cast boosters
being imported into the country. IME
contended that, by the end of 1999,
about two million unmarked units had
been distributed in the United States.
The petitioner further stated that many
more thousands of tons of these high
explosives were expected to be
imported into the United States in the
near future.
Without a change in the regulations,
IME was concerned that these
explosives would enter into the
commerce of the U.S. without marks of
identification, posing significant safety
and security risks to the public.
Although IME informed ATF that many
of its member companies importing
explosives into the U.S. mark their
VerDate jul<14>2003 19:56 May 26, 2005 Jkt 205001
imported explosive materials in an
effort to ensure the traceability and
accountability of the materials, it
believes that all imported explosive
materials should be appropriately
identified. Therefore, it petitioned ATF
to amend the Federal explosives
regulations.
By letter dated August 2, 2000, IME
amended its petition to narrow its scope
to importers of high explosives and
blasting agents. IME stated that it did
not understand that the scope of its
initial petition would apply to importers
of low explosives. IME noted that it has
a specific standard recommending that
high explosives and blasting agents be
marked with a date/plant/shift code.
III. Advance Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking
Based on IME’s petition, ATF
published in the Federal Register on
November 13, 2000, an advance notice
of proposed rulemaking (ANPRM)
requesting information and comments
from interested persons on the
desirability and feasibility of marking
imported explosive materials (Notice
No. 906, 65 FR 67669). Although ATF
solicited comments on specific
questions, it also requested any relevant
information on the subject. The
comment period for Notice No. 906
closed on January 12, 2001.
In response to Notice No. 906, ATF
received three comments. Two
commenters argued that licensed
importers should place the same or
similar identification marks on
imported explosive materials that are
currently required for explosive
materials manufactured in the United
States.
The petitioner, IME, submitted the
third comment. IME reiterated its
position that imported high explosives
and blasting agents should contain the
same identification markings prescribed
in the regulations for domestically
manufactured explosives. IME also
included an attachment as part of its
comment that provided responses to the
questions posed by ATF in the advance
notice.
IV. Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
On October 16, 2002, after
consideration of the comments received
in response to Notice No. 906, ATF
published in the Federal Register a
notice proposing to amend the
regulations to require licensed importers
to identify by marking all imported
explosive materials (Notice No. 956, 67
FR 63862). ATF stated its belief that the
proposed marking requirements would
help ensure that imported explosive
materials can be effectively traced for
PO 00000 Frm 00023 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\27MYR1.SGM
30627
criminal enforcement purposes. ATF
also proposed to incorporate into the
regulations the provisions of ATF
Ruling 75–35, relating to methods of
marking containers of explosive
materials. In addition, ATF proposed to
amend the regulations to remove the
requirement that a licensee or permittee
file for an amended license or permit in
order to change the class of explosive
materials described in their license or
permit from a lower to a higher
classification. The specific regulatory
proposals in Notice No. 956 are
discussed in the following paragraphs.
A. Amendments to § 555.109
In an effort to protect the public from
the misuse of explosive materials, to
more easily identify explosive materials,
and to successfully trace misused
explosive materials or explosive
materials used in crimes, ATF proposed
to amend § 555.109 to provide that
licensed importers and permittees must
identify by marking all explosive
materials they import for sale or
distribution, or import for their own
use. The required marks must be legible
and in the English language, using
Roman letters and Arabic numerals. The
marks must identify the importer’s or
permittee’s name and address, the
location (city and country) where the
explosive materials were manufactured,
as well as the date and shift of
manufacture. ATF did not propose to
require the name of the foreign
manufacturer on imported explosives as
requested by IME in its comments
submitted in response to the advance
notice. Instead, ATF proposed to require
placement of the name of the importer
on the explosive materials because ATF
does not have regulatory oversight over
foreign manufacturers, particularly with
respect to their recordkeeping practices.
As proposed, the required marks must
be placed on each cartridge, bag, or
other immediate container of explosive
materials that are imported, as well as
on any outside container used for their
packaging. This is consistent with
current requirements for domestically
manufactured explosives. The proposed
regulations also provided that the
required marks of identification must be
placed on imported explosive materials
within 24 hours of release from Customs
custody.
In addition, under the proposed
regulations, the exceptions to the
marking requirements currently
specified in the regulations would apply
to imported explosive materials as well.
ATF also proposed other amendments
to § 555.109. ATF clarified that licensed
manufacturers must place the required
marks of identification on the explosive
27MYR1
 30628 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 102 / Friday, May 27, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
materials at the time of manufacture.
ATF also proposed to incorporate into
the regulations the provisions of ATF
Ruling 75–35 (1975–ATF C.B. 65). This
ruling authorizes any method, or
combination of methods, for affixing the
required marks to the immediate
container of explosive materials, or
outside containers used for the
packaging thereof, provided the
identifying marks are legible, show all
the required information, and are not
rendered unreadable by extended
periods of storage. The ruling also
provides that where it is desired to
utilize a coding system and omit printed
markings on the containers, a letterhead
application displaying the coding to be
used and the manner of its application
must be filed by the licensed
manufacturer with, and approved by,
the Director prior to the use of the
proposed coding. Finally, the ruling
provides that where a manufacturer
operates his or her plant for only one
shift during the day, the shift of
manufacture need not be shown. Upon
the effective date of a final rule in this
matter, ATF Ruling 75–35 would be
declared obsolete.
B. Miscellaneous Proposals—
Amendment of §§ 555.55 and 555.41
Section 555.55 provides that a
licensee or permittee who intends to
change the class of explosive materials
described in his or her license from a
lower to a higher classification (e.g.,
black powder to dynamite) must file an
application on ATF Form 5400.13/ATF
Form 5400.16 (Application for License
or Permit) with the ATF National
Licensing Center. If the change in class
of explosive materials would require a
change in magazines, the amended
application must include a description
of the type of construction as prescribed
in part 555. Business or operations with
respect to the new class of explosive
materials may not be commenced before
issuance of the amended license or
amended permit. Finally, upon receipt
of the amended license or amended
permit, the licensee or permittee must
submit his or her superseded license or
superseded permit and any copies
furnished with the license or permit to
the ATF National Licensing Center.
ATF proposed to remove § 555.55.
ATF believes that removing this section
would provide more flexibility to the
explosives industry in terms of the
classes of explosive materials involved
in their businesses, while not reducing
the requirement to store explosive
materials in accordance with the
regulations contained in subpart K.
Section 555.41 provides general
licensing and permit requirements
VerDate jul<14>2003 19:56 May 26, 2005 Jkt 205001
under the Federal explosives laws.
Technical amendments were made with
respect to § 555.41 in order to be
consistent with the proposed
amendment of § 555.55.
The comment period for Notice No.
956 closed on January 14, 2003.
V. Notice No. 956—Analysis of
Comments and Decisions
ATF received two comments in
response to Notice No. 956. Trade
associations, the IME (petitioner) and
the American Pyrotechnics Association
(APA), each submitted comments. IME
stated that it represents United States
manufacturers of high explosives and
other companies that distribute
explosives or provide related services. It
also stated that over 2.5 million metric
tons of explosives are consumed
annually in the United States of which
IME member companies produce over
95 percent and that the value of its
shipments is estimated in excess of $1
billion annually. In addition, the
commenter stated that part of its
mission is ‘‘to encourage the adoption of
uniform rules and regulations in the
manufacture, transportation, storage,
handling, use and disposal of explosive
materials used in blasting and other
essential operations.’’ IME expressed
concerns that the proposed regulations
would require different markings for
imported and domestically
manufactured explosives. It also
requested clarification of some of ATF’s
statements in the proposed rule. IME’s
concerns and questions are discussed in
the following paragraphs.
As stated in its comment, the APA is
the principal industry trade association
representing manufacturers, importers,
and distributors of fireworks in the
United States. It has over 260 member
companies that are responsible for 90
percent of the fireworks displayed in the
United States. The APA stated that
while it shares the same public safety
concerns as the petitioner (IME) for
initiating this rulemaking proceeding, it
believes that high explosives and low
explosives (e.g., fireworks) should be
treated differently for the purposes of
marking, recordkeeping, and tracking
requirements. The commenter explained
that the commercial explosives industry
differs in many ways from the fireworks
industry:
Products manufactured, imported and
distributed by the commercial explosives
industry are intended to function by
detonation, and their products are generally
stored and shipped in bulk form. * * * the
display fireworks industry deals in fireworks
classed as 1.3G explosives by the Department
of Transportation, which have traditionally
been deemed by ATF to be ’low explosives’.
PO 00000 Frm 00024 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\27MYR1.SGM
These devices, for the large part, function by
deflagration. A typical fireworks shipment
will consist of numerous different sizes and
types of aerial display shells, since there is
little demand for a fireworks display
consisting of only one color or effect.
The APA raised several concerns
regarding the proposed regulations.
Those concerns will also be addressed
in the following paragraphs.
A. Marking Explosives for
Manufacturer’s/Importer’s Own Use
The current regulations at § 555.109(a)
provide that ‘‘[e]ach licensed
manufacturer of explosive materials
shall legibly identify by marking all
explosive materials he manufactures for
sale or distribution.’’ The proposed
regulations specified that licensed
manufacturers and licensed importers
must identify by marking all explosive
materials they manufacture or import
for sale, distribution, ‘‘or their own
use.’’ The proposed regulations also
specified that permittees must identify
by marking all explosive materials they
import for their own use. IME expressed
concern that the proposed regulation
‘‘introduces a new requirement for
licensees to mark explosives they will
simply use, not distribute or sell.’’ The
commenter stated that it views this new
requirement as having an effect on three
major aspects of the commercial
explosives industry. First, IME stated
that manufacturers and importers make
or import explosive raw materials that
may not be sold or distributed, but will
be used to make a finished explosive
product. IME supports the marking of
these raw materials. In contrast, the
APA argued that markings should not be
required until the product is completed.
It stated that many times an individual
firework shell may consist of different
pyrotechnic compositions and that it
would be impossible for the
manufacturer to document and detail
the identification requirements for each
component of an individual shell. The
APA further stated that pyrotechnic
compositions are generally made by the
manufacturer and then incorporated
into the shell. The APA is concerned
about the marking of component parts,
and the recording of the manufacture
and use of said products, prior to
assembly into the final product. The
APA believes that these requirements
would put an undue burden on the
manufacturer who typically
manufactures the pyrotechnic
composition and incorporates it into a
final shell the same day. The commenter
suggests that only pyrotechnic
compositions that will be sold by the
manufacturer should be marked.
27MYR1
 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 102 / Friday, May 27, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
IME contended that the proposed
amendment would also have an effect
on the manufacture of experimental
explosives. IME stated that
manufacturers may make experimental
explosives that will be used in tests. It
supports marking experimental
explosives if they are transported off the
property of the manufacturing site.
However, IME argues that experimental
explosives that do not leave the
property of the manufacturing site
should not be required to have any
markings.
Finally, IME stated that the proposed
amendment would require
manufacturers of binary explosives to
place markings on the mixture. Like
experimental explosives, IME argued
that binary explosives should only be
marked if they are transported off the
property of the manufacturing site. The
commenter recommended that the final
regulations provide an exemption from
the marking requirements for
experimental and binary explosives that
are not transported off the property of
the manufacturing site.
Decision
Regarding the marking of
manufactured and imported explosive
materials that are not sold or distributed
but will be used to make a finished
explosive product, the Department
recognizes the APA’s concern and finds
that the commenter has raised valid
arguments. The Department does not
believe that it is necessary to require the
marking of pyrotechnic compositions
that will be incorporated into a final
shell. Such a requirement is
unreasonable and would be unduly
burdensome to the fireworks industry.
With respect to the marking of
experimental and binary explosives, the
Department believes that the arguments
raised by IME also have merit. The
Department recognizes that
experimental and binary explosives
tend to be manufactured or imported in
small quantities and used fairly quickly
after manufacture. As such, the
Department believes that the possibility
that the explosives may be stolen from
the site prior to use is minimal. As to
binary explosives, it is not feasible and
serves no law enforcement purpose to
mark explosives manufactured and used
the same day at a blasting site.
Accordingly, based on the concerns
expressed in the comments, this final
rule does not adopt the proposal to
require licensed manufacturers, licensed
importers, and permittees to identify by
marking all explosives they manufacture
or import for their own use. Since
permittees only import explosives for
their own use, the reference to
VerDate jul<14>2003 19:56 May 26, 2005 Jkt 205001
permittees in the final rule has been
removed.
B. Name and Address of Importer on
Imported Explosives
The proposed regulations provided
that imported explosive materials must
be marked with the name and address
(city and state) of the importer. IME
objected to this proposal, arguing that
such a requirement ‘‘will eliminate
nearly all off-the-shelf purchases of
foreign-made explosives and force all
imports to be specially made or
remarked.’’ Furthermore, IME
contended that in most cases the cost of
manually placing the importer’s name
and address on off-the-shelf, foreign-
made explosives would be prohibitive.
IME did not provide any cost estimates
concerning these costs. On the other
hand, IME acknowledged ATF’s need to
conduct traces of explosive materials
and that ‘‘a trace may be hampered by
not knowing where to start the chain-of-
custody trace.’’ The commenter
suggested that ATF require importers to
provide identifying information to it on
imports that are not marked with the
name and address of the importer. If all
imports of commercial high explosives
or blasting agents were reported to ATF
along with the foreign manufacturer’s
marks of identification, IME estimates
that ATF would receive these reports,
‘‘at most, once a week.’’ According to
IME, ATF could file these reports and
reference them to find the importer
when needed.
Decision
As noted in the proposed rule, ATF
does not have regulatory oversight over
foreign manufacturers, particularly with
respect to their recordkeeping practices.
ATF maintains that the identity (name
and address) of the importer is
necessary to ensure that explosive
materials can be effectively traced for
criminal enforcement purposes. Not
only would this information be
invaluable when conducting a trace, but
the name and address of the importer
may be key information located during
a post-blast investigation. Such
markings may identify the source of the
explosives used at a bomb scene and
may provide valuable leads to solving
the crime.
In addition, ATF’s experience with
tracing imported firearms indicates that
relying upon the records of foreign
manufacturers for tracing a firearm is
ineffective. A significant number of
countries either do not require
manufacturers of firearms to retain
records of production or require record
retention for an insufficient period of
time. Even where such records are
PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\27MYR1.SGM
30629
retained and are available to a foreign
manufacturer, cooperation of such
manufacturers with foreign law
enforcement is often sporadic or
nonexistent. Thus, when importer’s
markings are missing, illegible, or
inaccurate, ATF is frequently unable to
trace a firearm by obtaining assistance
from foreign firearms manufacturers.
For this reason, ATF regulations
implementing the marking requirements
of the Gun Control Act of 1968 require
importers to mark firearms with their
name, city, and State, so that the tracing
process begins with their records, rather
than those of a foreign manufacturer.
ATF believes that reliance upon the
markings of a foreign explosives
manufacturer to trace explosives will
pose the same problems as explained
above in relation to firearms tracing.
Accordingly, consistent with regulations
in 27 CFR 478.92, this rule imposes a
requirement on importers to mark the
explosives they import with the name
and address of the importer, the location
of the foreign manufacturer, and the
date and shift of manufacture.
Furthermore, an import report as
suggested by IME would hinder ATF’s
ability to trace misused explosives,
particularly in instances where there are
multiple importers importing the same
products. By having the importer’s
name and address on the misused
product, ATF would not have to go
through countless reports to determine
the identity of the importer. Creating a
tracing system for imported explosives
by establishing an ATF database of
import reports as suggested by IME
would be more burdensome for both the
industry and ATF. Instead of requiring
the information to be placed on the
explosives themselves, as is currently
required for domestic explosives, such a
system would require the completion of
forms that provide detailed information
on imported explosives that must be
sent to ATF and maintained in a newly
created ATF database. More
significantly, such a tracing system
would be inherently less reliable
inasmuch as a mistake by an importer
in entering the required information on
the form would make a trace difficult or
in some instances impossible. Requiring
the information to be placed on the
explosives would ensure that accurate
information is available on the source of
imported explosives, just as it is today
for domestic explosives, through
recovery of marked explosives or
recovery of the marked component of
the explosives at a crime scene. ATF
believes that the ability to trace should
be just as robust for imported explosives
as it is for domestic explosives.
27MYR1
 30630 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 102 / Friday, May 27, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
The Department recognizes that this
requirement will add some additional
costs to imported explosives that are not
properly marked during the
manufacturing process. However, IME’s
comments indicate this would likely be
a very small percentage of the market.
ATF’s experience since 1971 indicates
that most imported explosives are
manufactured specifically for a
particular domestic importer pursuant
to a particular contract, rather than
importers buying from a ‘‘spot market’’
of already existing foreign products.
ATF has no specific information
concerning the ‘‘spot market’’ in foreign
explosives referenced in IME comments.
If such a ‘‘spot market’’ exists, importers
can require that the explosives from that
market be marked properly in the
foreign country prior to shipment in
order to reduce the need to mark the
explosives when they arrive in the
United States. Explosives that arrive in
the United States unmarked may be
marked at a safe location by the
importer after the explosives are
released from Customs custody. In any
event, ATF believes that the potential
costs incurred, approximately 1 cent per
pound according to IME, for this small
category of imported explosives are
outweighed by the law enforcement
need to ensure the adequate ability to
trace explosives. Accordingly, this final
rule adopts the amendment as proposed.
C. Location of Manufacturer on
Imported Explosives
The proposed regulations provided
that imported explosive materials must
be marked with the location (city and
country) where the explosives were
manufactured. IME objected to this
proposal, arguing that it is unable to see
the value of such a requirement,
‘‘especially since ATF claims it ‘has no
regulatory oversight over foreign
manufacturers.’ ’’
Decision
While the Department acknowledges
that ATF does not have regulatory
oversight over foreign manufacturers, it
does have authority over licensed
importers of explosive materials. The
placement of the identifying marks
required by this rule, including the
location of the manufacturer, will
enable ATF to better trace misused
materials by narrowing the search
through the importer’s records and
through Customs documents. It is not
uncommon for importers to bring the
same product into the United States
from a number of foreign sources. Thus,
by requiring markings that include the
name and location of the foreign
manufacturer, ATF will be able to trace
VerDate jul<14>2003 19:56 May 26, 2005 Jkt 205001
explosives more quickly, by asking the
importer to locate records only for that
particular product manufactured by a
particular foreign manufacturer. In
addition, Customs entry documents and
databases list the country of
manufacture. In the event that ATF uses
Customs information to determine when
a particular explosives product entered
the United States, the name of the
country of manufacture and name of the
manufacturer would greatly assist in
identifying the shipment. As previously
described, this information on the
explosives may also provide valuable
leads during a post blast investigation.
In addition, this requirement is similar
to country of origin markings required
under the Customs laws in 19 U.S.C.
1304. Accordingly, this final rule
requires that imported explosives be
marked with the location (city and
country) where the explosive materials
were manufactured, which is consistent
with the way domestically
manufactured explosives are marked,
and with markings required for
imported firearms under 27 CFR 478.92.
D. Marking Imported Explosives Within
24 Hours of Release From Customs
Custody
The proposed regulations specified
that imported explosive materials must
be marked within 24 hours of the date
of release from Customs custody if such
explosive materials did not bear the
required markings at the time of their
release. IME stated that this requirement
is impractical for several reasons. First,
the commenter noted that most ports of
entry do not have locations where the
imported explosives could be safely
marked and it will often take more than
24 hours for the explosives to reach a
safe location for marking. Second, IME
stated that even if there were a safe
location near the port, most shipments
could not be marked in 24 hours.
Finally, and according to IME most
importantly, ‘‘any grace period exposes
unmarked explosives to the risk of theft
and degrades the effectiveness of the
primary intent of the marking
requirement.’’ Because of this last
concern, IME suggested that ATF
require imported explosives to be
properly marked prior to entry into the
United States, noting that ‘‘[t]his is
consistent with the NPRM’s requirement
that domestic manufacturers place the
markings on explosives ‘at the time of
manufacture.’ ’’ The commenter further
stated that ‘‘[t]here should be no
concessions made to the security of
imported explosives.’’
The APA stated that while the
fireworks industry generally supports
the proposed importer identification
PO 00000 Frm 00026 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\27MYR1.SGM
requirement, it does not support the
proposed timetable for compliance. The
commenter reiterated its position
regarding the unique circumstances
involving the fireworks industry and
requested that additional time be
provided for marking imported
explosives released from Customs
custody. The APA provided the
following justification for requesting
additional time to mark imported
explosives:
Many shipments do not leave the port within
24 hours of customs clearance, let alone get
unloaded or checked for labeling. It would be
impossible to label each case of fireworks on
a container within a 24 hour time period,
especially when some companies receive
multiple container loads per shipment. Thus,
to require individual aerial shells (possibly
thousands) to be labeled within a 24 hour
time period is not feasible nor in the interest
of public safety.
Decision
While the Department shares IME’s
concern regarding the risk of theft of
imported explosives released from
Customs custody without the proper
identification markings, it disagrees
with IME’s suggestion that ATF should
require imported explosives to be
properly marked prior to the time of
importation. The Department believes
that such a requirement would be overly
restrictive and unduly burdensome for
importers, particularly small importers.
Small importers may not have the
financial means to have a run of
explosives manufactured bearing their
name and address. However, based on
the comments, the Department
recognizes that the proposed
requirement to mark imported
explosives within 24 hours of release
from Customs custody may be overly
restrictive and impractical, particularly
with respect to importers who are
geographically distant from the point of
importation.
Accordingly, this final rule provides
that licensed importers must place the
required marks on all explosive
materials imported prior to distribution
or shipment for use, and in no event
later than 15 days after the date of
release from Customs custody. The
Department believes that this is a
sufficient amount of time for imported
explosives to be marked without posing
unnecessary and significant safety and
security risks to the public.
Furthermore, this is consistent with the
marking requirements for imported
firearms under 27 CFR 478.112(d). In
the event additional time is needed to
mark the imported explosives, the
importer can request a variance
27MYR1
 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 102 / Friday, May 27, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
pursuant to the provisions of 27 CFR
555.22.
Additionally, the Department points
out that 27 CFR 555.214(b) requires that
‘‘containers of explosive materials are to
be stored so that marks are visible.’’
Therefore, all containers of explosive
materials placed in storage must have
proper marks of identification on the
immediate outside containers. The
marking of individual internal packages
may occur within the 15-day period
specified in the regulations.
E. Director Approved Coding System
As proposed, 27 CFR 555.109(c)(4)
reads as follows:
If licensed manufacturers, licensed importers
or permittees importing explosive materials
desire to use a coding system and omit
printed markings on the container, they must
file with ATF a letterhead application
displaying the coding that they plan to use
and explaining the manner of its application.
The Director must approve the application
before the proposed coding can be used.
IME stated that it is not entirely clear
under what conditions a manufacturer
or importer must seek the Director’s
approval for markings and it suggested
that ATF ‘‘clarify exactly what
conditions invoke the need for the
Director’s approval of coding systems.’’
IME stated that in 1971 its member
companies implemented a product
identification system for packaged
explosives manufactured in the United
States. The coding system utilizes a
series of alpha and numeric characters
to indicate the date, work shift, and
location of the manufacturer. It does not
indicate the name of the manufacturer.
As an example, IME stated that a
product manufactured on September 30,
1997, during the first shift at a plant that
the manufacturer has assigned the letter
‘‘A’’ would be ‘‘30SE97A1.’’ IME asked
if each licensee or permittee using the
standard IME coding system would
need the Director’s approval. IME also
asked if a licensee or permittee using a
bar code system would need the
Director’s approval.
Decision
The current regulations specify that
licensed manufacturers must place
certain marks of identification on
explosive materials they manufacture.
The required marks of identification
include the name of the manufacturer
and the location, date, and shift of
manufacture. This information must be
legible, identifiable, and
understandable. ATF Ruling 75–35
provides, in part, that where it is
desired to utilize a coding system and
omit printed markings on the container,
i.e., stating the information required by
VerDate jul<14>2003 19:56 May 26, 2005 Jkt 205001
§ 555.109, a letterhead application
displaying the coding to be used and
manner of its application must be filed
with and approved by the Director. This
provision of the ruling was incorporated
into the proposed regulations. In
response to IME’s request that ATF
clarify when coding systems are
permissible, licensees using IME’s
coding system or a bar code system
must file with ATF a letterhead
application displaying the coding that
they plan to use and explaining the
manner of its application. The Director
must approve the application before the
proposed coding can be used. Without
an explanation as to the meaning of the
coding system, the information would
be meaningless and ATF would be
unable to trace products marked with
such a system. In addition, the
Department notes that IME’s current
coding system fails to provide the name
of the manufacturer, and is not
consistent with regulations in 27 CFR
555.109. Without the name of the
manufacturer, or, in the case of
imported explosives, the name of the
importer, ATF does not have sufficient
information to trace explosives. If
industry members seek and obtain
approved variances, ATF will have
information to decode markings,
determine the actual manufacturer or
importer, and begin the tracing process.
In the event that IME members or other
members of the explosives industry are
utilizing coding systems to mark
domestic products, and such members
do not have written approval from ATF
to use such markings, the member
should immediately apply for an
alternate method or procedure pursuant
to 27 CFR 555.109.
Accordingly, this final rule clarifies
that if licensed manufacturers or
licensed importers desire to use a
coding system and omit printed
markings on the container that show all
the required information specified in
the regulations, they must file with ATF
a letterhead application displaying the
coding that they plan to use and
explaining the manner of its
application. The Director must approve
the application before the proposed
coding can be used.
F. Tracking the Acquisition and
Disposition of Explosives by Date/Shift
Code
The APA expressed concern involving
the required tracking of acquisition and
disposition of explosive materials by
date/shift code. In general, the APA
agrees with the proposed markings for
each individual aerial shell. It expressed
concern, however, with tracking the
distribution of shells by the date/shift
PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\27MYR1.SGM
30631
code. The APA stated that fireworks
package displays often contain shells of
numerous sizes, colors and date/shift
codes and that to track shells by date/
shift code would pose an undue and
unnecessary recordkeeping burden on
industry members. The APA suggested
that records of production and
distribution for display fireworks
should only show the number and size
of the aerial shells. The commenter’s
suggestion is based on its belief that
there is a low occurrence of display
fireworks used in criminal activity and
that most likely the criminal would
transfer the explosive material from the
shell to another container. Furthermore,
the APA suggested that ATF require all
shipping cartons of display fireworks to
be marked with the name of the
manufacturer or distributor and the date
that the fireworks were shipped.
Decision
It is the Department’s decision that
failure to incorporate the date/shift code
in the acquisition and disposition
records would hinder the effectiveness
and purpose of placing the markings on
each individual shell. A shell could be
traced to the manufacturer or importer
but it would be difficult or impossible
to trace the shell any further if the
records only contained type and count
information. The date/shift code is
essential in narrowing the records
search to the appropriate time period.
Manufacturers and importers
manufacture and import thousands of
the same type of product, so that
marking with the date of shipment alone
will not narrow the records search to
locate a particular explosive within a
reasonable time period. When
explosives are used in a criminal
incident, time is of the essence. Undue
delay in identifying the record of
acquisition and disposition for a
particular explosive product can
interfere in investigating bombings and
other criminal incidents using
explosives. Placing a code of sorts in the
shipping carton could offer some
assistance, but would not be effective in
instances where the shells are no longer
in their shipping cartons. Accordingly,
the Department is not adopting the
APA’s suggestion.
G. Computerized Systems for Tracking
Explosives
Another concern of the APA relates to
computerized systems for tracking
explosive materials. The APA stated
that it is aware that some companies are
currently using, or looking into the
implementation of, systems that use bar
coding to identify and track their
products. The commenter believes that
27MYR1
 30632 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 102 / Friday, May 27, 2005 / Rules and Regulations
this technology will continue to expand
in use in the fireworks industry and that
significantly greater control over the
tracking of individual items should
become economically feasible within a
few years. In the interim, the APA urged
ATF to adopt regulations or policies that
permit new methods of recordkeeping
(including the use of computerized
systems) to be implemented by
companies without the need to apply for
variances.
Decision
The Department believes that the APA
has raised a valid concern with respect
to the use of computerized systems for
tracking explosives. This issue is being
addressed in another rulemaking
proceeding (see Notice No. 968, January
29, 2003; 68 FR 4406). Until this
rulemaking is completed, industry
members may seek written
authorization from ATF to use
computerized recordkeeping systems
that utilize bar coding or other
computerized systems to streamline the
process. As stated above, the use of
coded marking requirements may also
be approved through the variance
process, and can be used in conjunction
with a computerized recordkeeping
system. The Department believes that
the use of computerized recordkeeping
systems will not negate the need to
maintain the date shift codes in the
records.
Miscellaneous Amendments
Section 555.52 provides for
limitations on permits and licenses in
respect to business activity or permitted
operations and specified class of
explosives materials allowed. A
technical amendment is being made in
this final rule with respect to § 555.52
in order to be consistent with the
amendments made in §§ 555.55 and
555.41, which are also being adopted as
proposed.
VI. ATF Ruling 75–35
This final rule incorporates the
provisions of ATF Ruling 75–35 (1975–
ATF C.B. 65), relating to methods of
marking containers of explosive
materials. Accordingly, the provisions
of ATF Ruling 75–35 become obsolete
upon the effective date of this final rule.
How This Document Complies With the
Federal Administrative Requirements
for Rulemaking
A. Executive Order 12866
This rule has been drafted and
reviewed in accordance with Executive
Order 12866, ‘‘Regulatory Planning and
Review,’’ section 1(b), Principles of
Regulation. The Department of Justice
VerDate jul<14>2003 19:56 May 26, 2005 Jkt 205001
has determined that this rule is a
‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under
Executive Order 12866, section 3(f),
Regulatory Planning and Review, and
accordingly this rule has been reviewed
by the Office of Management and
Budget. However, this rule will not have
an annual effect on the economy of $100
million, nor will it adversely affect in a
material way the economy, a sector of
the economy, productivity, competition,
jobs, the environment, public health, or
safety, or State, local or tribal
governments or communities.
Accordingly, this rule is not an
‘‘economically significant’’ rulemaking
as defined by Executive Order 12866.
Further, the Department has assessed
both the costs and benefits of this rule
as required by Executive Order 12866,
section 1(b)(6), and has made a reasoned
determination that the benefits of this
regulation justify its costs. The
Department believes that the costs
associated with compliance with the
final regulations are minimal.
Comments received in response to the
ANPRM and the notice of proposed
rulemaking indicate that in all
likelihood the foreign manufacturer,
rather than the U.S. importer, will place
the required marks on explosives that
are imported into the United States.
However, some importers may not
have the financial means to have a run
of explosives manufactured bearing
their name and address. ATF estimates
that a very small percentage (one
percent) of the approximately 413
Federally licensed importers will need
to mark imported explosives. In general,
the IME stated that marking costs are
less than approximately one percent of
the product cost, ranging from $.002/lb.
to $.01/lb. ATF estimates that
approximately five percent of imported
explosives would need to be marked. To
illustrate, according to the U.S. Census
Bureau, approximately 155,240,707
pounds of explosives were imported
into the United States in 2003. Based on
IME’s information, the marking costs
associated with 7,762,035 pounds of
imported explosives (five percent of
155,240,707 pounds) would range from
approximately $15,524 to $77,620.
B. Executive Order 13132
This regulation will not have
substantial direct effects on the States,
on the relationship between the
National Government and the States, or
on the distribution of power and
responsibilities among the various
levels of government. Therefore, in
accordance with section 6 of Executive
Order 13132, the Attorney General has
determined that this regulation does not
have sufficient federalism implications
PO 00000 Frm 00028 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\27MYR1.SGM
to warrant the preparation of a
federalism summary impact statement.
C. Executive Order 12988
This regulation meets the applicable
standards set forth in sections 3(a) and
3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988.
D. Regulatory Flexibility Act
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5
U.S.C. 605(b)) requires an agency to
conduct a regulatory flexibility analysis
of any rule subject to notice and
comment rulemaking requirements
unless the agency certifies that the rule
will not have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities. Small entities include small
businesses, small not-for-profit
enterprises, and small governmental
jurisdictions. The Attorney General has
reviewed this regulation and, by
approving it, certifies that this rule will
not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small
entities. Most U.S. importers should not
be significantly affected by the final
regulations because the foreign-
manufactured explosives they import
will already be marked in accordance
with the provisions of 27 CFR 555.109.
ATF estimates that a very small
percentage (one percent) of the
approximately 413 Federally licensed
importers will need to mark imported
explosives. In general, the IME stated
that marking costs are less than
approximately one percent of the
product cost, ranging from $.002/lb. to
$.01/lb. ATF estimates that
approximately five percent of imported
explosives would need to be marked. To
illustrate, according to the U.S. Census
Bureau, approximately 155,240,707
pounds of explosives were imported
into the United States in 2003. Based on
IME’s information, the marking costs
associated with 7,762,035 pounds of
imported explosives (five percent of
155,240,707 pounds) would range from
approximately $15,524 to $77,620.
Accordingly, a regulatory flexibility
analysis is not required.
E. Small Business Regulatory
Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996
This rule is not a major rule as
defined by section 251 of the Small
Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996, 5 U.S.C. 804. This
rule will not result in an annual effect
on the economy of $100 million or
more; a major increase in costs or prices;
or significant adverse effects on
competition, employment, investment,
innovation, or on the ability of United
States-based companies to compete with
foreign-based companies in domestic
and export markets.

 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 102 / Friday, May 27, 2005 / Rules and Regulations 30633

F. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of
1995
This rule will not result in the
expenditure by State, local, and tribal
governments, in the aggregate, or by the
private sector of $100 million or more
in any one year, and it will not
significantly or uniquely affect small
governments. Therefore, no actions were
deemed necessary under the provisions
of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1995.
G. Paperwork Reduction Act
The collections of information
contained in this final regulation have
been reviewed and approved by the
Office of Management and Budget in
accordance with the requirements of the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
3507(d)) under control number 1140–
0055. An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid control
number assigned by the Office of
Management and Budget.
The collections of information in this
regulation are in 27 CFR 555.109(b)(2).
This information is required to properly
identify imported explosive materials.
The collections of information are
mandatory. The likely respondents are
businesses.
The estimated average annual burden
associated with the collections of
information in this final rule is 46
hours.
Comments concerning the accuracy of
this burden estimate and suggestions for
reducing this burden should be directed
to the Chief, Document Services Branch,

Safety Zone; Tampa Bay, FL
AGENCY: Coast Guard, DHS.
ACTION: Temporary final rule.
SUMMARY: The Coast Guard is
establishing a temporary safety zone on
the waters within Tampa Bay, Florida,
including Sparkman Channel, Garrison
Channel (east of the Beneficial Bridge),
Ybor Turning Basin, and Ybor Channel.
The safety zone is needed to ensure the
safety of all mariners from hazards
associated with a fireworks display.
Entry into this zone is prohibited to all
vessels and persons without the prior
permission of the Coast Guard Captain
of the Port Tampa or designated
representative.
DATES: This rule is effective from 8:30
p.m. until 9:20 p.m. on May 29, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Documents indicated in this
preamble as being available in the
docket are part of docket [COTP

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
VerDate jul<14>2003 19:56 May 26, 2005 Jkt 205001
Regulatory Information
We did not publish a notice of
proposed rulemaking (NPRM) for this
regulation. Under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), the
Coast Guard finds that good cause exists
for not publishing an NPRM. The
necessary details for the final date of the
fireworks demonstration and the
location of the safety zone surrounding
it were not provided with sufficient
time remaining to publish an NPRM.
Publishing an NPRM and delaying its
effective date would be contrary to the
public interest since immediate action is
needed to minimize potential danger to
the public during the fireworks
demonstration. The Coast Guard will
issue a broadcast notice to mariners to
advise mariners of the restriction.
For the same reasons, under 5 U.S.C.
553(d)(3), the Coast Guard finds that
good cause exists for making this rule
effective less than 30 days after
publication in the Federal Register.
Background and Purpose
Downtown Tampa Attractions
Association is scheduled to conduct a
fireworks display on May 29, 2005, in
Tampa Bay, Florida. This safety zone is
being established to ensure the safety of
life during the event, as the public is
invited to attend the fireworks display,
and falling debris may present a danger
to life and property.
Discussion of Rule
The safety zone encompasses the
following waters within Tampa Bay:
Sparkman Channel, Garrison Channel
(east of the Beneficial Bridge), Ybor
Turning Basin, and Ybor Channel.
Vessels are prohibited from anchoring,
mooring, or transiting within this zone,
unless authorized by the Captain of the
Port Tampa or designated
representative. The zone is effective
from 8:30 p.m. until 9:20 p.m. on May
29, 2005.
Regulatory Evaluation
This rule is not a ‘‘significant
regulatory action’’ under section 3(f) of
Executive Order 12866, Regulatory
Planning and Review, and does not
require an assessment of potential costs
and benefits under section 6(a)(3) of that
Order. The Office of Management and
Budget has not reviewed it under that
Order. It is not ‘‘significant’’ under the
regulatory policies and procedures of
the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS). The Coast Guard expects the
impact of this rule to be so minimal that
a full Regulatory Evaluation under the
regulatory policies and procedures of
DHS is unnecessary, because the safety
zone will be in effect for only 50
minuets during a time when vessel
PO 00000 Frm 00030 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\27MYR1.SGM
traffic is limited. Moreover, vessels may
enter the zone with the express
permission of the Captain of the Port
Tampa or designated representative.
Small Entities
Under the Regulatory Flexibility Act
(5 U.S.C. 601–612), we have considered
whether this rule would have a
significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
The term ‘‘small entities’’ comprises
small businesses, not-for-profit
organizations that are independently
owned and operated and are not
dominant in their fields, and
governmental jurisdictions with
populations of less than 50,000.
The Coast Guard certifies under 5
U.S.C. 605(b) that this rule will not have
a significant economic impact on a
substantial number of small entities.
This rule will affect the following
entities, some of which may be small
entities: The owners or operators of
vessels intending to transit Sparkman
Channel, Garrison Channel (east of the
Beneficial Bridge), Ybor Turning Basin,
and Ybor Channel from 8:30 p.m. until
9:20 p.m. on May 29, 2005. This safety
zone will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial
number of small entities for the
following reasons. This rule will be in
effect for only 50 minutes late in the
evening when vessel traffic is extremely
low. Additionally, traffic will be
allowed to enter the zone with the
permission of the Coast Guard Captain
of the Port Tampa or designated
representative.
Assistance for Small Entities
Under section 213(a) of the Small
Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–121),
we offer to assist small entities in
understanding the rule so that they can
better evaluate its effects on them and
participate in the rulemaking process.
Small entities may contact the person
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT for assistance in understanding
and participating in this rulemaking.
Small Businesses may send comments
on the actions of Federal employees
who enforce, or otherwise determine
compliance with, Federal regulations to
the Small Business and Agriculture
Regulatory Enforcement Ombudsman
and the Regional Small Business
Regulatory Fairness Boards. The
Ombudsman evaluates these actions
annually and rates each agency’s
responsiveness to small business. If you
wish to comment on actions by
employees of the Coast Guard, call 1–
888–REG–FAIR (1–888–734–3247).

viii Land Transport Rule

Objective of the rule

Land Transport Rule: Dangerous Goods 1999 sets

out the requirements for the safe carriage of
dangerous goods on land in New Zealand. The rule
covers the packaging, identification and documen-
tation of dangerous goods; the segregation of
incompatible goods; transport procedures; and the
training and responsibilities of those involved in the
transport of dangerous goods.

The prime objective of the rule is to provide a work-

able regime to enable dangerous goods to be trans-
ported safely on land and, thereby, minimise the risk
to people, to property and to the environment. The
rule’s requirements are applied according to the
nature, quantity and use of the dangerous goods. This
will ensure that everyone involved in the transport of
the goods, from initial consignment to final delivery,
is aware of the dangers the goods present, is
adequately protected and has access to the infor-
mation required to deal with an emergency situation.
The rule allows for less stringent requirements for the
transport of small quantities of dangerous goods and
resolves anomalies in the application of requirements
for the transport of dangerous goods by private
individuals and trades-people.

Requirements for dangerous goods in the past have

been contained in a large number of Acts, regulations
and standards, administered by several government
departments. This legislation includes the Transport
Act 1962, the Traffic Regulations 1976, the New
Zealand Standard Code of Practice for the Transport of
Hazardous Substances, the Explosives Act 1957, the
Dangerous Goods Act 1974, the Toxic Substances Act
1979, and related regulations. Legislation covering
dangerous goods has been consolidated in the
Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996.
For its part, the Dangerous Goods Rule clarifies and
consolidates the legislation relating to the transport of

3 May 1999
Dangerous Goods 1999 ix

dangerous goods and is in harmony with the

Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996.

Anomalies in previous transport requirements have

been clarified and the requirements have been aligned
with the United Nations Recommendations on the
Transport of Dangerous Goods (UNRTDG) and the
international codes of practice for sea and air
transport.

In accordance with the Land Transport Act 1998, the

Land Transport Safety Authority (LTSA) has taken
into account the social benefits and costs of the rule’s
requirements to ensure that it promotes land transport
safety at a reasonable cost. Some provisions of the
rule, considered on their own, cannot be proved to be
economically justifiable. Without them, however, an
effective risk-control regime could not be established
and accountability and enforceability would be
diminished. These provisions are essential to align
with the UNRTDG or to achieve consistency with
regulations for the control of hazards under the
Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996.

Extent of consultation

The previous legislation for the transport of dangerous

goods on land in New Zealand was introduced in
1990 as an amendment to the Transport Act 1962. In
1994, the LTSA commissioned a report that
recommended improvements to the control regime to
increase its efficiency. Work began on this in 1995,
culminating in the production of the Dangerous Goods
Rule. To assist in developing an improved regime, the
LTSA formed a technical working group from the
Joint Committee on the Road Transport of Hazardous
Substances, which comprises experts from
government and industry.

3 May 1999
 x Land Transport Rule

The technical working group has been involved during

all stages of development of the rule and met to
consider submissions on the draft rule at both the
industry and public consultation phases. The technical
working group was also consulted in the preparation
of the final draft of the rule. In the final stage of the
rule’s production, the LTSA also worked closely with
officials of the Ministry for the Environment to
ensure that the rule would harmonise with the
Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996.

The consultation process on the rule began formally in

December 1995 when the LTSA sent the preliminary
(red) draft of the rule to 302 people who had either
registered an interest in the rule or who were con-
sidered likely to be interested in the rule. In the two
months to the end of February 1996, the LTSA sent
out approximately 500 copies of the draft, mainly to
those involved in the dangerous goods industry. The
LTSA received 54 submissions on the red draft.

The ensuing yellow draft of the rule, which included

changes made as a result of comments received on the
red draft, was released for public consultation in
November 1996. The availability of the yellow draft
was publicised in metropolitan and regional news-
papers, the New Zealand Gazette and Te Maori News.
The draft rule was sent to public libraries throughout
New Zealand and to libraries and transport organ-
isations overseas.

The New Zealand Chemical Industry Council held a

series of seminars in conjunction with the LTSA to
publicise the draft rule. The LTSA received 108
submissions on the yellow draft, from the public,
government departments and the industry. The sub-
missions were analysed and requirements in the
yellow draft were re-evaluated in the preparation of
the final rule.
