The Agricultural Retailers Association recently developed a convenient resource for agricultural retailers to help them stay informed of storage and handling requirements for anhydrous ammonia and ammonium nitrate. There are several different federal agencies that play a role in setting these requirements, including the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Transportation, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the Transportation Security Administration and the U.S. Coast Guard.
In addition to listing requirements from these agencies, the chart also includes information on standards for anhydrous ammonia and ammonium nitrate set by the National Fire Protection Association and the American National Standards Institute.
