Purpose This pamphlet explains the Army’s safety criteria and standards for operations involving ammunition and explosives prescribed by AR 385–64, for the United States Army, GOCO facilities, and contractor operations on Government property.

1–2. References Required and related publications are listed in appendix A.

1–3. Explanation of abbreviations and terms Abbreviations and special terms used in this pamphlet are explained in the glossary.

1–4. Implementation

a. This pamphlet provides the guidance to implement AR 385–64. Adhering to its procedures will ensure safe and proper storage and handling of ammunition and explosives. Mandatory requirements are those in which the term “shall,” “will,” or “must” is used and no deviation is permitted without specific written authority in the form of a waiver or exemption as detailed in AR 385–64. Advisory provisions are those in which the term “may” or “should” is used, and no deviation is permitted unless local waivers are authorized in writing by local commander or his or her designee. In new construction or building modification, advisory standards be come mandatory.

b. Some of the procedures used in carrying out the U.S. Army Explosives Safety Program are outlined in publications that are not published by the Army and are not available through standard supply channels. For example, several are published by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and some by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

1–5. Policy on existing explosives facilities A program should be locally developed to correct deficiencies if such deficiencies exist where previously constructed explosives facilities do not comply with current safety standards. The program priority items should be based on a hazard analysis and risk assessment of each violation.

Chapter 2 General Safety Precautions 2–1. Hazard analysis and risk assessment All operations involving ammunition and explosives will be reviewed to identify and manage the risk associated with the operation (see fig 2–1).

a. A risk assessment shall be performed on all new or modified industrial operations and facilities involving ammunition and explosives. Based upon this assessment, engineering design criteria for the facility and/or operation will be developed to select appropriate equipment, shielding, engineering controls, and protective clothing for personnel.

The assessment will review such factors as—

(1) Initiation sensitivity;

(2) Quantity of materials;

(3) Heat output;

(4) Rate of burning;

(5) Potential ignition and initiation sources;

(6) Protection capabilities of shields, various types of clothing, and fire protection systems; and,

(7) The acute and chronic health hazards of hot vapors and combustion products on exposed personnel.

b. Ammunition and explosives operations will require an operational or task hazard analysis prior to writing a new standing operating procedure (SOP) for an ammunition or explosives operation or before the biannual review of an existing ammunition or explosives operation.

c. Personnel conducting the hazard analysis will be knowledgeable—

(1) In ammunition and explosives safety;

(2) In the task to be performed; and,

(3) In the methods used to conduct a hazard analysis.

DA PAM 385–64 • 15 December 1999 1 2–2. Personnel qualifications Personnel working with explosives will be trained in the tasks to be performed. They must understand the hazards, standards, procedures, and precautions that apply to their work.

2–3. Use of written standards Written standards must be developed and used for each explosives operation. These standards may be based on standards found in Army publications such as regulations or technical manuals, or in higher headquarters standard publications.

a. SOPs for all explosives operations ensure workers have the information necessary to perform their tasks safely.

Each worker will read the SOP or have the SOP read aloud before starting the operation. SOPs must be readily available at the work site. Applicable parts of the SOP will be clearly posted at all workstations in the operation, such as bays within a building. When posting within the work site is not practical, the SOP will be posted at the entrance to the site.

b. All SOPs for explosives operations will identify potentially hazardous items or conditions. Explosives workers observing hazardous or potentially hazardous conditions will notify their supervisor immediately. Supervisors will correct the operations or practices which, if allowed to continue, could reasonably be expected to cause death or serious physical harm to personnel or major system damage, or endanger the installation’s capacity to accomplish its mission.

c. Procedures will be written in English and in the language workers understand if they do not understand English.

d. Written procedures are not required for explosives ordnance disposal (EOD) emergency operations in connection with an approved render-safe procedure.

2–4. Personnel and explosives limits Operations must be conducted in a manner which exposes the minimum number of people to the smallest quantity of explosives for the shortest period of time consistent with conducting the operation. Examples are as follows:

a. Tasks not necessary to the operation will be prohibited within the immediate area of the hazard produced by the operation.

b. Personnel limits must be clearly posted for each operation and must not be exceeded during the operation. Limits for explosives operations will be included in the SOP.

c. Where concurrent operations must be performed in a single building, the layout will be planned to protect from blast overpressure and to provide separation of dissimilar explosives hazards by using substantial dividing walls, barricades, or other means to ensure maximum personnel protection.

d. Personnel not needed for the operation will be prohibited from visiting. This does not prohibit official visits by safety, quality control (QC), management, or inspection personnel, up to established personnel limits.

e. Each worker will ensure explosives limits for the work area are not exceeded. Limits will be expressed in total net explosive weight (NEW), number of units, or the number of trays, boxes, pallets, or other units which are more easily controlled.

f. Explosives limits will be based on the minimum quantity of explosives sufficient for the operation. Limits will not exceed the quantity used during half a work shift, and will be consistent with quantity-distance (Q-D) separation criteria.

g. The maximum amount of explosives of each hazard division (HD) allowed will be clearly posted in each room, cubicle, magazine, or building used for storing explosives. For operating locations, post the explosives limits for the operation being conducted. Material limits need only be posted in storage magazines if the limit is not the same as that for other magazines in the block or if the limit would not be readily apparent due to some unusual circumstances.

2–5. Handling and movement precautions Munitions and/or explosives will be handled only by trained personnel who understand the hazards and risks involved in the operation. Supervisors will be trained to recognize and abate hazards associated with their operations.

a. Detonators, initiators, squibs, blasting caps (electrical and nonelectrical), and other initiating devices will be 2 DA PAM 385–64 • 15 December 1999 carried in protective containers. The containers must prevent item-to-item contact and be marked to identify the contents.

b. Bale hooks will not be used to handle explosives.

c. Nails may be used to secure covers or repair explosives containers only if there is no hazard to the explosive item or of penetrating protective coverings.

d. Nails and other packing materials will comply with technical packing orders, military specifications, or Department of Transportation (DOT) specifications applicable to the item.

e. Munitions will not be tumbled, dragged, dropped, thrown, rolled, or walked. Containers designed with skids may be pushed or pulled for positioning, unless otherwise marked on the container.

f. Conveyors, chutes, hand trucks, and forklifts may be used in atmospheres and locations where they will not create hazards.

g. Sectionalized roller conveyors moving munitions or explosives will be supported and the sections interlocked or secured. Boxes of explosives will not be used to support conveyors.

h. Safety handtools will be constructed of wood or other nonsparking or spark-resistant materials such as bronze which, under normal conditions of use, will not produce sparks. Only properly maintained safety handtools will be used for locations having hazardous concentrations of flammable dusts, gases, vapors, or exposed explosives.

(1) Handtools or other implements used near hazardous materials must be handled carefully and kept clean. All tools will be checked for damage at the start and on completion of work.

(2) If it is necessary to use ferrous metal handtools because of their strength, the immediate area should be free from exposed explosives and other highly combustible materials except in specific operations approved by the installation safety officer.

(3) Safety handtools containing copper or zinc, such as brass or bronze, will not be used in proximity to lead azide or residuals from the treatment of lead azide.

2–6. Housekeeping Ammunition storage, handling, and operating facilities and areas will be maintained free of debris and rubbish and accumulation of oily rags or other material subject to spontaneous ignition.

a. Waste materials.

(1) Waste materials, such as oily rags, hazardous materials, such as explosives scrap, and wood, paper, and combustible packing materials, will not be mixed. Each of these categories of waste will be carefully controlled and placed in separate approved, properly marked containers. The containers will be placed outside the facilities, except for containers required at the work location during operations. Working location containers will be emptied, as needed but at least once each shift.

(2) Containers for explosive waste will have covers, preferably self-closing. Explosives hazardous waste includes scrap powder, initiating or sensitive explosives, sweepings from open explosive areas, and rags contaminated with these explosives.

(a) Receptacles should have enough liquid, normally water or oil, to cover the scraps or rags if this does not add to the hazard.

(b) No. 10 mineral oil is useful for covering white phosphorous (WP), pyrotechnic, tracer, flare, and similar mixtures. If water is used to cover such materials, scrap should be put in so it is immediately immersed to reduce any production of dangerous gases.

(3) Hazardous waste material will be removed from operating buildings to the disposal area (or an isolated, temporary collection point) at frequent intervals and before leaving at the end of the duty day or shift. When isolated collection points are used, time and quantity limits, which comply with environmental regulations, will be set up to ensure timely movement of the material to the disposal area. Hazardous material should not be “stored” in the disposal area but disposed of as soon as possible after arrival.

(4) Hazardous wastes will be disposed of in authorized facilities. A SOP will cover disposal operations. The DA PAM 385–64 • 15 December 1999 3 organization responsible for hazardous waste disposal will include disposal facilities on waste disposal permits, as required by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

b. Cleaning. A regular cleaning program will be established. To ensure safety, frequency, especially in operating buildings, will depend on local conditions.

(1) General cleaning will not be done during an explosives operation or while explosives are in operating buildings.

(2) Where there are exposed explosives or a risk from accumulating explosives, structural members, radiators, heating coils, pipes, and electrical fixtures will be kept clean.

c. Sweeping compounds.

(1) Sweeping compounds containing wax or oil will not be used on conductive floors.

(2) Cleaning agents that include caustic alkalis must not be used in locations containing exposed explosives because sensitive explosive compounds may form.

(3) Where there may be exposed explosives on the floor, hot water or steam is the preferred cleaning method. When sweeping compounds must be used, they will be nonabrasive.

(4) Sweeping compounds may be combustible but will not be volatile (closed cup flashpoint will not be less than 230 degrees Fahrenheit).

d. Explosives recovery and re-use. All loose explosives recovered as sweepings will be destroyed.

2–7. Testing, disassembly, and modification of explosives items This paragraph gives precautions to take during testing, disassembly, and modification of explosives items.

a. All testing, disassembly, and modification operations will be done by qualified technicians according to approved SOPs. The supervisor will provide any necessary drawings and sketches.

b. Modification, testing, or disassembly of explosives items is permitted for any one of the following circumstances:

(1) When authorized by approved publications.

(2) When approval has been granted by the MACOM and the item manager or system program office.

(3) When EOD personnel require disassembly for technical intelligence or emergency render-safe operations.

(4) When conducted as part of an approved organization mission that includes research, development, or test of explosives items or explosive equipment.

c. Operational…
