Disposition of Explosives and Other Dangerous Articles.
(1) General. Damage to explosives and other dangerous articles, especially where
damage cannot be readily noted, presents a special situation. Rough handling may
require destruction of the entire shipment even though damage to every item may not
be visible. In no case are explosives or other dangerous articles to be released to the
carrier for salvage.
(2) Supporting Documentation. TDRs should be supported by:
(a) A statement that the carrier was notified and given an opportunity to reinspect the
commodity before its destruction. This does not apply to classified material.
(b) Evidence (photographs, statements, etc.) showing in detail how the commodity
was prepared for shipment (blocked, braced, etc.).
(c) A statement from technically qualified personnel and supporting evidence
(technical orders, etc.) showing destruction was warranted.
(d) A statement that the carrier was aware of:
1.
The nature of the commodity transported.
2.
That the government might have to destroy the entire shipment after delivery
if the commodity was handled roughly.
3.
Basis for determining that the commodities were handled roughly.
