·   New requirement that a security plan must be provided as part of the permitting process for explosive materials
·   Clarified that certain provisions of the code were not applicable to handloading of small arms ammunition for personal use.
·   New rule requires hazard analyses to be performed as part of manufacturing processes.
·   New requirement allows the use of quantitative-risk-assessment (QRA) in cases where the quantity-distance (Q-D) requirements cannot be met.
