Quantity Distance Requirements

DOE-STD-1091-96

5.4.2.2

When required to properly describe the hazard, a numerical

figure in parentheses shall be placed to the left of the

hazard class/division 1.1 through 1.3 (e.g., (18) 1.1, (08)

1.2, and (06) 1.3); this number in parentheses is used to

indicate the minimum separation distance (in hundreds of

feet) for specified levels of protection from munitions for

inhabited buildings, public traffic routes, and personnel in

the open.

Quantity Distance Requirements

5.4.3.1

Hazard Class/Division 1.1 Munitions. Inhabited building and

public traffic route separation distances shall be in

accordance with those specified in Table 9-1, DOD 6055.9-

STD. If the storage structure is an above-ground magazine

(not earth-covered), Column 5 for inhabited buildings and

Column 9 for public traffic routes shall be used. The mini-

mum fragment distance has been incorporated into the table

except when the minimum fragment distance is indicated by

a numerical figure in parentheses. For example, "Hazard

Class/Division (04) 1.1" means that for 100 pounds or less

of net explosives weight, the minimum fragment distance will

be 400 feet.

Hazard Class/Division l.2 Munitions

(a)

(04) 1.2 Munitions. Inhabited building and public

traffic route separation distances shall be as

specified in Table 9-6, DOD 6055.9-STD. If the

minimum distances specified are available, there is

no limit as to the quantity of the material which can

be stored in an approved structure. If the min-

imum distances are not available, (04) 1.2 material

shall not be stored in the structure. Limited

quantities of (04) 1.2 items, for reasons of

operational necessity, may be stored in security
