(a) Except as provided in § 173.7 of this subchapter, when the § 172.101 Table specifies that an explosive must be packaged in accordance with this section, only packagings which conform to the provisions of paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section or § 173.7(e) of this subchapter and the applicable requirements in §§ 173.60 and 173.61 may be used unless otherwise approved by the Associate Administrator.
(b) Explosives Table. The Explosives Table specifies the Packing Instructions assigned to each explosive. Explosives are identified in the first column in numerical sequence by their identification number (ID #), which is listed in column 4 of the § 172.101 table, of this subchapter. The second column of the Explosives Table specifies the Packing Instruction (PI) which must be used for packaging the explosive. The Explosives Packing Method Table in paragraph (c) of this section defines the methods of packaging. The Packing Instructions are identified using a 3 digit designation. The Packing Instruction prefixed by the letters "US" is particular to the United States and not found in applicable international regulations.

(c) Explosives Packing Instruction Table. Explosives must be packaged in accordance with the following table:
(1) The first column lists, in alphanumeric sequence, the packing methods prescribed for explosives in the Explosives Table of paragraph (b) of this section.
(2) The second column specifies the inner packagings that are required. If inner packagings are not required, a notation of "Not necessary" appears in the column. The term "Not necessary" means that a suitable inner packaging may be used but is not required.
(3) The third column specifies the intermediate packagings that are required. If intermediate packagings are not required, a notation of "Not necessary" appears in the column. The term "Not necessary" means that a suitable intermediate packaging may be used but is not required.
(4) The fourth column specifies the outer packagings which are required. If inner packagings and/or intermediate packagings are specified in the second and third columns, then the packaging specified in the fourth column must be used as the outer packaging of a combination packaging; otherwise it may be used as a single packaging.
(5) Packing Instruction 101 may be used for any explosive substance or article if an equivalent level of safety is shown to be maintained subject to the approval of the Associate Administrator.

segregated; each kind from
every other kind, and from any
gun, tool or other supplies,
unless approved in accordance
with Sec. 173.56. Segregated
initiation devices must be
carried in a container having
individual pockets for each
such device or in a fully
enclosed steel container lined
with a non-sparking material.
No more than two segregated
initiation devices per gun may
be carried on the same motor
vehicle..
b. Each shaped charge affixed
to the gun may not contain
more than 112 g (4 ounces) of
explosives..
c. Each shaped charge if not
completely enclosed in glass
or metal, must be fully
protected by a metal cover
after installation in the gun..
d. A jet perforating gun
classed as 1.1D or 1.4D may be
transported by highway by
private or contract carriers
engaged in oil well
operations..
(i) A motor vehicle
transporting a gun must have
specially built racks or
carrying cases designed and
constructed so that the gun is
securely held in place during
transportation and is not
subject to damage by contact,
one to the other or any other
article or material carried in
the vehicle; and.
(ii) The assembled gun packed
on the vehicle may not extend
beyond the body of the motor
vehicle..
e. A jet perforating gun
classed as 1.4D may be
transported by a private
offshore supply vessel only
when the gun is carried in a
motor vehicle as specified in
paragraph (d) of this packing
method or on offshore well
tool pallets provided that:.
(i) All the conditions
specified in paragraphs (a),
(b), and (c) of this packing
method are met;.
(ii) The total explosive
contents do not exceed 90.8 kg
(200 pounds) per tool pallet;.
(iii) Each cargo vessel
compartment may contain up to
90.8 kg (200 pounds) of
explosive content if the
segregation requirements in
Sec. 176.83(b) of this
subchapter are met; and.
(iv) When more than one vehicle
or tool pallet is stowed ``on
deck'' a minimum horizontal
separation of 3 m (9.8 feet)
must be provided..
