Mr. Christopher M. Bruce Reference No. 07-0099
2605 Arrowhead Lane
Bellevue, NE 68123
Dear Mr. Bruce:
This is in response to your May 17, 2007 letter concerning the applicability of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR: 49 CFR 171-180) to fireworks. Specifically, you ask whether Class B 1 .3G fireworks, sold for personal, non-commercial use and transported in personal vehicles, are subject to the HMR.
The answer is no. Private individuals who purchase fireworks not requiring a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) license for their own personal use and transport them in personal vehicles are not subject to the HMR.
I hope this information is helpful.
Sincerely,
John A. Gale
Chief, Standards Development
