34 Bigda, Kristin From: Sent: To: Cc: Subject: Solomon, Robert Wednesday, April 02, :22 PM Bigda, Kristin Harrington, Greg FW: Question regarding Storage of Explosives Kristin: Please put this in the future agenda file for NFPA 1 and NFPA I am not positive that NFPA 1, Chapter 65 and NFPA 5000, Chapter 34 are treating this subject consistently based on NFPA 495. Happy flying today! Thanks. robert Robert Solomon, PE NFPA Please consider the environment before printing this . From: Colonna, Guy Sent: Wednesday, April 02, :25 PM To: dave.frable@gsa.gov Cc: Solomon, Robert; Colonna, Guy Subject: Question regarding Storage of Explosives Dave, Robert has forwarded your question back to me as it lies with NFPA 495 as you have determined between your review of NFPA 5000 and IFC (I recopied your question to the bottom of this response). NFPA 495 does not limit by occupancy where indoor magazines are permitted. The code does specify what types of magazines are required for each type of explosive or explosive material. I have extracted the text from 9.2 as copied below: 9.2 Basic Requirements All explosive materials not in the process of manufacture, transportation, or use shall be kept in storage magazines Ammonium nitrate shall be permitted to be stored in the same magazine with blasting agents Ammonium nitrate and blasting agents shall be permitted to be stored in the same magazine with other explosive materials. (See ) Where ammonium nitrate is stored in the same magazine with blasting agents, the magazine shall be designed for the storage of blasting agents Where ammonium nitrate is stored in the same magazine with explosives or with explosives and blasting agents, the magazine shall be designed for the storage of explosives In determining the maximum quantity of explosive material that is permitted to be placed in a magazine, onehalf the weight of the ammonium nitrate shall be added to the weight of the explosive material. 1 Page 34 of 65

35 9.2.3 Detonators shall be stored in a separate magazine for blasting supplies and not be stored in a magazine with other explosive materials Explosive materials classified as Division 1.1 or Division 1.2 by the U.S. DOT shall be stored in Type 1, 2, or 3 magazines Black Powder shall be permitted to be stored in a Type 4 magazine or a magazine of higher classification (i.e., lower type number) Division 1.5 explosive materials (blasting agents) shall be permitted to be stored in a Type 5 magazine or a magazine of higher classification (i.e., lower type number). Based on the types of materials described in your to Robert, you need either a Type 1, 2, or 3 magazine (per Table (b) of NFPA 495). So, based on my understanding of the requirements in NFPA 495, which is he source for explosives per Chapter 34 of NFPA 5000, Chapter 65 of NFPA 1, or Chapter 5 of NFPA 400, you would be permitted to store explosive materials in an indoor magazine within any occupancy as long as the requirements of Chapter 9 of NFPA 495 are followed. Paragraph might be interpreted that there are no transportation or use restrictions applicable to federal or state military agencies or federal, state, or municipal agencies while engaged in normal or emergency performance of duties This code shall not apply to the transportation and use of military explosives by federal or state military agencies, nor shall it apply to the transportation and use of explosive materials by federal, state, or municipal agencies while engaged in normal or emergency performance of duties. I believe that in either case, the activity about which you inquire, can be carried out based on the above analysis of the requirements from NFPA 495. Sincerely, Guy Guy R. Colonna, PE Staff Liaison NFPA IMPORTANT NOTICE: This correspondence is not a Formal Interpretation issued pursuant to NFPA Regulations. Any opinion expressed is the personal opinion of the author and does not necessarily represent the official position of the NFPA or its Technical Committees. In addition, this correspondence is neither intended, nor should it be relied upon, to provide professional consultation or services. I would appreciate your assistance on an issue that has recently come up regarding storage requirements for K 9 explosive training aids in GSA owned Federal Building s/property. Several Federal law enforcement agencies (e.g., FPS/DHS, USMS, etc.) mission involves using a K 9 program to provide explosive detection in and around our Federal Buildings. Part of this program involves explosive detection training of the K 9 handler with their assigned dog using explosive training aides which may be stored on Federal property. Examples of the explosive training aids include, but 2 Page 35 of 65

36 are not limited to: smokeless powder (1 2 pounds); dynamite; water gel (1 3 lbs); TNT (1 3 lbs); C 4 (1 3 lbs); ammonia nitrate (1 2 lbs); sodium chlorate; detonation cord (0.07 lbs); safety fuse (0.04 lbs); etc. I have been informed that these types of materials are typically stored in Type 2 magazines. As I explained, we would like to ensure safeguards and proper protocols are in place based on risk to protect occupants and Federal property when explosive training aids are being stored on Federal property as well as try to meet the needs of Federal law enforcement agencies. Therefore, we are looking at the requirements in NFPA 5000 and NFPA 495 as well as the International Fire Code (IFC) to address this issue. NFPA 5000, Chapter 34 (High Hazard Contents) has Table (c) which specifies maximum allowable quantities (MAQ) of hazardous materials per control area in Business Occupancies which has a footnote d that states The use of explosive materials required by federal, state, or municipal agencies while engaged in normal or emergency performance of duties is not required to be limited. The storage of explosive materials is required to be in accordance with the requirements of NFPA 495. However, it appears NFPA 495 does not state specifically what type of occupancies explosives can be stored. Whereas, in the IFC, paragraph , specifically states that The use of indoor magazines for storage of explosives or explosive materials shall be limited to occupancies of Group F, H, M, or S, and research and development laboratories. Therefore, based on the requirements in NFPA 5000 and NFPA 495, would it be acceptable for federal, state, or municipal agencies store explosive materials in a magazine in any occupancy, as long as it meets the requirements in Chapter 9 of NFPA 495? Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. Should you have any questions, please contact me at Thanks. 3 Page 36 of 65

37 Multiple-Story Structures. Multiple-story structures shall comply with the following: (1) The story at the finished ground level shall comply with (2)* Other stories shall be provided with emergency access openings in accordance with on two sides of the building, spaced not more than 30 ft (9.1 m) apart and all of the following: (a) the openings are provided on two sides of the building (b) the openings are spaced not more than 30 ft (9.1 m) apart (c) for other than approved existing installations, the distance between each end of the applicable building exterior walls and an emergency access opening does not exceed 15 ft (4.6 m) or the distance from an access opening on one wall and the nearest access opening on an adjacent wall does not exceed 30 ft (9.1 m) SUBSTANTIATION: The intent of the current maximum 30-ft spacing between emergency access openings can be met, in the case where the emergency access openings are positioned on opposite sides of the building, only by also requiring the distance between each end of the building exterior wall and an emergency access opening to be not in excess of 15 ft. Once the exterior wall with emergency access openings is a little more than 30 ft in length (i.e., 30 ft + width of the emergency access opening), a minimum of two access openings must be provided. Where access openings are positioned in adjacent walls, a maximum 30-ft spacing between access openings on two adjacent walls can serve in lieu of the 15-ft criterion. For example, an access opening might be 20 ft from a building wall end and then an additional 10 ft to the nearest access opening on the adjacent wall for a total of 30 ft. These concepts are illustrated by the four figures being added as advisory guidance in annex paragraph A (2). A (2) Figure A (2) illustrates four arrangements in accordance with the 15-ft (4.6-m) maximum distance requirement between the end of the exterior wall and an emergency access opening. (insert here the 4 sketches shown on the next page) FIGURE A (2) Emergency Access Opening Position in Relation to End of Exterior Wall. SUBSTANTIATION: The proposed annex figures help to illustrate the requirement of revised , especially subpart (c) relative to the positioning of emergency access openings near the ends of exterior walls.

39 National Fire Protection Association Report 2 of 618 7/7/2015 8:49 AM Public Input No. 428-NFPA [ Section No ] Special Low -Purpose Density Industrial Occupancy. An industrial occupancy in which ordinary and low hazard industrial operations are conducted in buildings designed for, and suitable only for, particular types of operations, characterized by a relatively low density of employee population, with much of the area occupied by machinery or equipment. () Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Input Global Change throughout Document. Change Special Purpose Industrial Occupancy to Low Density Industrial Occupancy. While NFPA 101 does a good job of explaining when to use the occupancy classification in both the definition and in the annex statements. However, due to the title of this occupancy classification it is often misunderstood and used inappropriately and non-conservatively. Many times industrial occupancies with an ordinary population density that perform unique operations are incorrectly assigned the classification of Special Purpose Industrial Occupancy. The egress requirements are less demanding for a special purpose industrial occupancy than for an industrial occupancy. This is a common and non-conservative mistake that is caused when users do not read the details of the definition. Changing the title of the occupancy classification as proposed makes it clear that this occupancy of for low population density not unique operations.
