NATO explosives safety standards limit this magazine to an HD 1.1 NEQ of 75,000 kg (NEW=165,000 pounds). For siting at U.S installations, where encumered land is completely within U.S owned or controlled property, an explosives limit of 250,000 pounds NEW can be used for siting purposes and treat as a non-std ECM. Considered a standard (7-Bar) ECM for sitings involving 165,000 pounds NEW or less.
