SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Title XI of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970, Public Law 91-
452, added chapter 40 (``Importation, Manufacture, Distribution and
Storage of Explosive Materials'') to title 18 of the United States Code
(U.S.C.). One purpose of title XI is to reduce the ``hazard to persons
and property arising from misuse and unsafe or insecure storage of
explosive materials.'' Public Law 91-452, sec. 1101, 84 Stat. 922, 952
(1970).
The Attorney General is responsible for implementing title XI. See
18 U.S.C. 847. The Attorney General has delegated that responsibility
to the Director of the ATF subject to the direction of the Attorney
General and the Deputy Attorney General. See 28 CFR 0.130. Regulations
in 27 CFR part 555 implement title XI.
The regulations at 27 CFR 555.220 set forth a table of separation
distances of ammonium nitrate and blasting agents from explosives or
blasting agents (the Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances) followed by six
explanatory notes. In this table, the term ``separation distance''
means the minimum distance that must be maintained between stores of
certain materials, such as high explosives, and blasting agents. The
third note states that the distances specified in the Sec. 555.220
Table of Distances ``apply to ammonium nitrate that passes the
[[Page 30634]]
insensitivity test prescribed in the definition of ammonium nitrate
fertilizer issued by the Fertilizer Institute'' in its ``Definition and
Test Procedures for Ammonium Nitrate Fertilizer.''
The Fertilizer Institute (TFI) is a voluntary, non-profit trade
association that currently has more than 175 members. See Membership
List, The Fertilizer Institute, http://www.tfi.org/about/membership-list (last visited August 19, 2014). Members include importers,
wholesalers, retailers, and others involved in the fertilizer industry.
Id. Many of TFI's members handle and store ammonium nitrate fertilizer
and may be affected by the regulations at Sec. 555.220.
The Agricultural Nitrogen Institute, a predecessor organization of
TFI, first developed the ``Definition and Test Procedures for Ammonium
Nitrate Fertilizer'' guidance document. See The Fertilizer Institute,
Definition and Test Procedures for Ammonium Nitrate Fertilizer (Aug.
1984), available at https://www.atf.gov/files/publications/download/hist/definition-and-test-procedures-for-ammonium-nitrate.pdf. In May
1984, TFI assembled a task force of industry and government
representatives who were ``experts on the physical and chemical
characteristics of ammonium nitrate fertilizer'' to review and update
the document. Id. ``Based on that review and the technical expertise
and experience of the task force members, TFI published'' a revised
guidance document in August 1984 (the August 1984 guidance). Id. The
August 1984 guidance defines ammonium nitrate fertilizer as ``solid
ammonium nitrate containing a minimum of 33.0% nitrogen, having a
minimum pH of 4.0 in a 10% aqueous solution, 0.20% maximum carbon,
0.010% maximum elemental sulfur, 0.150% maximum chloride as Cl, or
particulated elemental metals sufficient to release 4.60 ml, maximum,
of hydrogen from 50.0 gram sample and which will pass the detonation
resistance test in Section 2.0 and the burning test in Section 4.0.''
Id. at 1.
A. The Fertilizer Institute Petition
On March 19, 2002, TFI filed a petition with ATF requesting that
ATF amend the explosives regulations at Sec. 555.220 to remove the
reference to the August 1984 guidance. TFI explained that the document
is outdated because TFI last published it in 1984, will not review or
update it, and cannot ensure that its procedures are still valid. TFI
recognized that ATF may require an alternate method of determining the
insensitivity of ammonium nitrate fertilizer and suggested that ATF
reference certain Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations.
The DOT regulations include several definitions and two hazardous
classifications (Class 5.1 and Class 9) for ammonium nitrate based
fertilizers based on the amount of combustible material included in the
fertilizer. See 49 CFR 172.101. Class 5.1 ammonium nitrate fertilizer
is defined as a uniform mixture with ammonium nitrate as the main
ingredient within the following composition limits: (1) Not less than
90 percent ammonium nitrate with not more than 0.2 percent total
combustible, organic material calculated as carbon, and with added
matter, if any, that is inorganic and inert when in contact with
ammonium nitrate; or (2) more than 70 percent but less than 90 percent
ammonium nitrate with other inorganic materials, or more than 80
percent but less than 90 percent ammonium nitrate mixed with calcium
carbonate or dolomite or mineral calcium sulphate, and not more than
0.4 percent total combustible, organic material calculated as carbon;
or (3) ammonium nitrate-based fertilizers containing mixtures of
ammonium nitrate and ammonium sulphate with more than 45 percent but
less than 70 percent ammonium nitrate, and not more than 0.4 percent
total combustible, organic material calculated as carbon such that the
sum of the percentage of compositions of ammonium nitrate and ammonium
sulphate exceeds 70 percent. See 49 CFR 172.101, 172.102(c)(1) code/
special provisions 52, 150. Class 9 ammonium nitrate fertilizer is
defined as a uniform, ammonium nitrate-based fertilizer mixture
containing nitrogen, phosphate, or potash with not more than 70 percent
ammonium nitrate and not more than 0.4 percent total combustible,
organic material calculated as carbon or with not more than 45 percent
ammonium nitrate and unrestricted combustible material. See 49 CFR
172.101, 172.102(c)(1) code/special provision 132. To determine whether
a material falls within Class 5, Division 5.1, DOT requires regulated
parties to conduct tests in accordance with international standards in
the United Nations (UN) Manual of Tests and Criteria. See 49 CFR
173.127(a).
B. Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
Based upon TFI's petition, ATF published in the Federal Register on
September 16, 2010, an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (Notice
No. ATF 26A, 75 FR 56489). ATF requested information from explosives
industry members, trade associations, consumers, and all other
interested parties to determine whether a replacement reference for the
August 1984 guidance is necessary, and, if so, whether there are any
alternate methods available to determine the insensitivity of ammonium
nitrate fertilizer. ATF solicited comments on 10 specific questions as
well as any relevant information on the subject. The comment period for
Notice No. ATF 26A closed on December 15, 2010.
II. Analysis of Comments
A. Comments Received
ATF received three comments in response to the advanced notice of
proposed rulemaking. Two of the commenters are explosive and fertilizer
trade associations, and one commenter is an associate member of an
explosive and fertilizer trade association. All of the commenters
support removing the reference to the August 1984 guidance and adopting
DOT regulations for classifying ammonium nitrate fertilizer in
accordance with the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria.
The first commenter, the Institute of Makers of Explosives (IME),
believes that ATF should amend note three following the Sec. 555.220
Table of Distances to be consistent with the source document, Appendix
A of IME Safety Library Publication 2,\1\ and Table 9.4.2.2(b) of the
National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) NFPA 495: Explosive
Materials Code.\2\ IME noted that these two internationally recognized
standards referenced the August 1984 guidance and replaced it with the
following: ``The distances in the Table apply to ammonium nitrate and
ammonium nitrate based materials that show a `negative' (-) result in
the UN Test Series 2 Gap Test and show a `positive' (+) result in the
UN Test Series 1 Gap Test. Ammonium nitrate and ammonium nitrate based
materials that are DOT hazard Class 1 sensitive shall be stored at
separation distances determined by the American Table of Distances.''
IME noted that DOT test procedures are ``suitable and internationally
recognized at the United Nations'' and believes that ATF should
harmonize its standards with those of DOT.

Materials Code 31 (2010), available at http://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/document-information-pages?mode=code&code=495.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[[Page 30635]]
The petitioner, TFI, submitted the second comment. Like IME, TFI
noted that IME removed references to the August 1984 guidance from its
Safety Library Publication 2, the American Table of Distances, and that
the NFPA adopted the same test as IME in NFPA 495. TFI also commented
that ATF references NFPA and IME in its Table of Distances. TFI,
therefore, supports IME's position concerning the use of the UN Test
Series 1 and 2 Gap Tests.
The third commenter, an IME member company, fully supports IME's
comments.
B. Department Response
The Department does not agree that it should replace the current
reference to the August 1984 guidance document with a reference to the
UN Test Series 1 and 2 Gap Tests. The Department acknowledges that the
United Nations has developed criteria, test methods, and procedures
that are generally sufficient for competent authorities to use for the
classification of dangerous goods during transport. See U. N. Econ. &
Soc. Council, Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods:
Manual of Tests and Criteria U.N. Doc. ST/SG/AC.10/11/Rev.5 (2009),
available at http://www.unece.org/fileadmin/DAM/trans/danger/publi/manual/Rev5/English/ST-SG-AC10-11-Rev5-EN.pdf. However, these
recommended test methods do not address all the hazards encountered
during processes involving dangerous goods, such as storage. Existing
literature indicates that fertilizer and technical grade ammonium
nitrate prill can detonate under certain circumstances and that various
factors--such as particle size, prill density, degree of confinement,
temperature, and moisture content--can affect the detonability of
ammonium nitrate prill.\3\ Those factors may develop during transport,
handling, and storage, after the UN test criteria have been applied.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
In addition, ATF is unaware of any commercially-produced ammonium
nitrate manufactured for use with, and stored in the proximity of,
explosives that would not fall under the Sec. 555.220 Table of
Distances, using the UN Test Series 1 and 2 Gap Tests under the
commenters' proposed amendments. Because the UN tests would lead to all
ammonium nitrate being subject to the Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances,
the costs of imposing the extra step of those tests would outweigh any
benefits.
The Department thus proposes amending the third note following the
Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances to delete the reference to the August
1984 guidance and to state that all ammonium nitrate stored near high
explosives and blasting agents is subject to the Sec. 555.220 Table of
Distances. The Department believes this proposal will not negatively
affect the explosives industry because most ammonium nitrate currently
located near stores of high explosives and blasting agents are already
subject to the Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances. Moreover, it is ATF's
understanding that entities who store ammonium nitrate located near
high explosives and blasting agents do not use the outdated August 1984
guidance referenced in the existing regulations and instead comply with
the Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances for all ammonium nitrate. This
proposed removal of the reference to the outdated test does not address
ammonium nitrate blends containing fuels. Generally, ammonium nitrate
blends are subject to ATF's criteria for high explosives in Sec.
555.202(a) or blasting agent in Sec. 555.11. Ammonium nitrate blends
that meet the criteria are ammonium nitrate explosive mixtures and
designated as such in ATF's List of Explosive Materials, which is
published annually pursuant to 27 CFR 555.23.
This proposed amendment will provide industry members with clear
guidance on the application of these regulations governing the storage
of explosive materials. Section 555.206(c)(2) states that all ammonium
nitrate is subject to the separation distances requirements in Sec.
555.220. The revision of the reference to the outdated August 1984
guidance in note three following the Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances
will make clear the application of the Table of Distances in
relationship to all ammonium nitrate. All ammonium nitrate will be
subject to the Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances when stored within the
sympathetic detonation distances of high explosives and blasting
agents. Ammonium nitrate explosive mixtures that are high explosives
pursuant to Sec. 555.202(a) or are defined as a blasting agent
pursuant to Sec. 555.11, will be subject both to the table of
distances for storage of explosive materials in Sec. 555.218 and to
the Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances. In this way, the proposed
amendment will continue to protect public safety by ensuring that all
stores of ammonium nitrate located within the sympathetic detonation
distances to high explosives or blasting agents meet minimum distances
to inhabited buildings, highways, and passenger railways.
III. Proposed Amendments to 27 CFR Part 555
This proposed rule would amend the regulations of ATF governing the
separation of distances of ammonium nitrate and blasting agents from
explosives or blasting agents. The proposed rule would revise note
three following the Table of Distances in 27 CFR 555.220 by removing
the reference to the August 1984 guidance. The proposed rule would
clarify that all ammonium nitrate is subject to 27 CFR 555.206(c)(2)
and 555.220.
IV. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews
A. Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
This proposed rule has been drafted and reviewed in accordance with
Executive Order 12866, ``Regulatory Planning and Review,'' section
1(b), The Principles of Regulation and in accordance with Executive
Order 13563, ``Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review,'' section 1,
General Principles of Regulation, and section 6, Retrospective Analyses
of Existing Rules.
Both Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess all
costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if
regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize
net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public
health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). Executive
Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and
benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting
flexibility. The Department has assessed the costs and benefits of this
regulation and believes that the regulatory approach selected maximizes
net benefits.
This proposed rule will not have an annual effect on the economy of
$100 million or more, nor will it adversely affect in a material way
the economy, a sector of the economy, productivity,
[[Page 30636]]
competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or State,
local, or tribal government or communities. Similarly, it does not
create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an action
taken or planned by another agency, materially alter the budgetary
impact of entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan programs or the
rights and obligations of recipients thereof, or raise novel legal or
policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the President's
priorities, or the principles set forth in Executive Order 12866.
Accordingly, this proposed rule is not a ``significant regulatory
action'' as defined in Executive Order 12866.
Section 6 of Executive Order 13563, directs agencies to develop a
plan to review existing significant rules that may be ``outmoded,
ineffective, insufficient, or excessively burdensome,'' and to make
appropriate changes where warranted. The Department selected and
reviewed this rule under the criteria set forth in its Plan for
Retrospective Analysis of Existing Rules, and determined that this
proposed rule removes a reference to an outdated guidance document,
clarifies the existing regulations, and continues to protect public
safety. ATF welcomes public comment on its analysis of the proposed
rule's likely effects.
B. Executive Order 13132
This proposed rule will not have substantial direct effects on the
States, on the relationship between the Federal 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, ``Federalism,'' the Attorney General has
determined that this proposed rule will not have sufficient federalism
implications to warrant the preparation of a federalism summary impact
statement.
C. Executive Order 12988
This proposed rule meets the applicable standards set forth in
sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988, ``Civil Justice
Reform.''
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 rule and, by
approving it, certifies that this rule will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This
proposed rule updates the affected regulations by removing a reference
to an outdated guidance document. The changes proposed in this rule are
administrative and do not add any new requirements that would have any
impact on the economy because: (1) The referenced test in explanatory
note three was last published in 1984, is obsolete, and is not used by
the explosives industry; and (2) the explosives industry already
ensures their stores of ammonium nitrate are stored in accordance with
the Sec. 555.220 Table of Distances.
E. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996
This proposed 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 proposed 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, productivity, innovation, or on the ability of United
States-based enterprises to compete with foreign-based enterprises in
domestic and export markets.
F. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
This proposed 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
This proposed rule does not impose any new reporting or
recordkeeping requirements under the Paperwork Reduction Act.
V. Public Participation
