Foreword Over the years, Congress has specifically delegated statutory authority to the department of defense (DoD) for developing and promulgating explosives safety regulations for the safe storage, handling, and use of Munitions . DoD has demonstrated a long and successful history in the management of these hazardous materials. The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) of 1976 established specific regulations for the determination of when an item becomes waste, and how hazardous waste items are to be managed. In 1992, the Federal Facility Compliance Act (FFCA) was signed into law. This law required the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in consultation with DoD and the States, to publish regulations that identify when conventional and chemical military Munitions become hazardous waste and subject to Subtitle C of RCRA, and that provide for the safe storage and transportation of such waste.
