SLP-30 sets out sound and established best practices for the safe and secure management of ammonium nitrate (AN).  These guidelines are based on decades of direct experience and technical expertise, and are intended to safeguard our industry, workers, users, the public and the environment.  Certain best practices described in the SLP exceed existing federal and state standards.  IME discourages the recreational sale, distribution and use of any form of AN and we strongly recommend that the sale and distribution of AN be limited to licensees authorized by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF).
