Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 841(d) and 27 CFR 555.23, the Department must publish and revise at least annually in the Federal Register a list of explosives determined to be within the coverage of 18 U.S.C. 841 et seq. The list covers not only explosives, but also blasting agents and detonators, all of which are defined as explosive materials in 18 U.S.C. 841(c). In the 2016 listing, the Department amends the term ``Xanthamonas hydrophilic colloid explosive mixture'' to read ``Xanthomonas hydrophilic colloid explosive mixture'' and removes the term ``Special fireworks'' from the list of explosive materials.

[Docket No. 2016R-02]


Commerce in Explosives; 2016 Annual List of Explosive Materials

AGENCY: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF); 
Department of Justice.

ACTION: Notice of list of explosive materials.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 841(d) and 27 CFR 555.23, the Department 
must publish and revise at least annually in the Federal Register a 
list of explosives determined to be within the coverage of 18 U.S.C. 
841 et seq. The list covers not only explosives, but also blasting 
agents and detonators, all of which are defined as explosive materials 
in 18 U.S.C. 841(c). In the 2016 listing, the Department amends the 
term ``Xanthamonas hydrophilic colloid explosive mixture'' to read 
``Xanthomonas hydrophilic colloid explosive mixture'' and removes the 
term ``Special fireworks'' from the list of explosive materials. This 
notice publishes the 2016 Annual List of Explosive Materials.

DATES: The list becomes effective November 16, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: William E. Frye Jr., Chief, Explosives 
Industry Programs Branch; Firearms and Explosives Industry Division; 
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives; United States 
Department of Justice; 99 New York Avenue NE., Washington, DC 20226; 
202 648-7120.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    The list includes all mixtures containing any of the materials on 
the list. Materials constituting blasting agents are marked by an 
asterisk. While the list is comprehensive, it is not all-inclusive. The 
fact that an explosive material is not on the list does not mean that 
it is not within the coverage of the law if it otherwise meets the 
statutory definitions in 18 U.S.C. 841. Explosive materials are listed 
alphabetically by their common names followed, where applicable, by 
chemical names and synonyms in brackets.
    The Department amends the term, ``Xanthamonas hydrophilic colloid 
explosive mixture'' to ``Xanthomonas hydrophilic colloid explosive 
mixture'' to more accurately reflect reference to this material in the 
list of explosive materials. The term ``Xanthamonas'' was included as 
part of a 1967 patent of a gelled explosive containing a Xanthomonas 
hydrophilic colloid and was erroneously used as synonymous with the 
broader class of Xanthomonas hydrophilic colloid explosive mixtures. 
Further, the Department removes the term ``Special fireworks'' that was 
previously used to describe those fireworks currently classified as 
display fireworks. The definition of ``Special fireworks'' was removed 
and the definition of ``Display fireworks'' was added in its place to 
Part 555 (formerly Part 55) in a final rule (63 FR, 45001, August 24, 
1998). However, ``Special fireworks'' was not removed from the list of 
explosive materials at that time. These revisions are being made for 
clarity and consistency within all explosives laws and regulations. 
This list supersedes the List of Explosive Materials dated October 23, 
2015 (Docket No. 2015R-23, 80 FR 64446).
