Section 200.10  Scope and Authority

This Part implements the Illinois Explosives Act (the Act) [225 ILCS 210] and applies to all possession, acquisition, storage, use, transfer and disposal of explosive materials that can be or are classified as Division 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 and 1.5 explosives by 49 CFR 173.5 except as otherwise provided in the Act.  This Part is intended to supplement the requirements of any federal or State law and regulations governing the storage, use, acquisition, possession, disposal and transfer of explosive materials, but shall be construed, wherever possible to avoid conflicting or duplicative requirements.  Obtaining an explosives license, a temporary explosives license or storage certificate under this Part does not waive the requirements of any other federal, State or local law or ordinance regulating blasting and explosives.
