Publisher's Synopsis
The Manual provides safety standards common to DoD and private industry ammunition and explosives (AE), operations, and facilities performing AE work or AE services under DoD contracts, subcontracts, purchase orders, or other procurement methods. DoD 6055.9-STD (Reference (c)) establishes these AE safety standards and serves as the primary source document for this Manual. The explosives safety requirements included in this Manual are consistent with Reference (c) so that AE safety standards for DoD Components and DoD contractors are equivalent.
