Types of licence • Explosive Limit licences • Standard licence • Non-Standard licence • Authorised Quantity licence • Ammunition Demolition Site licence
Standard Licence • Used for ‘normal’ requirements for ammunition storage • Unless circumstances demand a different type of licence • When the QD between the PES and ES can be achieved in line with the guidance provided in the QD matrices and tables (in IATG 02.20 - Quantity and separation distances)
Non-Standard Licence • Used if specific constraints or regular monitoring • If QDs can’t be met, so ECA has been used • If regular monitoring is required
Authorised Quantity Licence • For ‘ready use’ ammunition • In buildings not specifically designed for ammunition storage • eg police stations, guardrooms • States what type of ammunition, and quantity
Ammunition Demolition Site Licence • Used where open burning and/or open detonation occurs • eg a demolition ground
Management of Licenses • Distribution and Display: • 1 copy to the national technical authority • 3 copies to the ammunition storage unit • 1 copy for prominent display at the relevant PES • 1 copy to the ammunition inspectorate
Management of Licences • Validity: • Change of Circumstances • Time validity • If a licence cannot be issued • Completing and authorising an ELL • Suspension of an ELL
The ELL Matrix – The PES A traverse Open stack (unprotected ESH)
The ELL Matrix – The ES Reinforced ESH
The ELL Matrix - Distances 50 500 100
This topic is covered in more detail in the Quantity Distances lessons on the SG1, SG2 and SG3 courses.
