ATF has the responsibility of enforcing regulations related to licensing, record keeping, storage of display fireworks and other matters relating to 1.3G material. These regulations can be found in Federal Laws and Regulations, ATF P5400.7 or known in the industry as the Orange Book. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) develops codes related to display fireworks operations. This includes outdoor aerial displays and indoor/outdoor proximate programs. These codes are often adopted by AHJs and become regulations. NFPA guidelines for the conduct of outdoor displays are found in their publication, NFPA 1123 Code for Fireworks Displays. Other helpful NFPA publications are the code books for 1124 and 1126. Each state may have its own
regulations regarding fireworks displays and those authorities should be consulted before a display is conducted in that state. Often, local AHJs have regulations regarding display fireworks. The local AHJ should also be consulted prior to a display. Many states require licensing for pyrotechnicians. Consult the state authorities early to verify if licensing is a requirement. This will allow you time to go through licensing procedures as outlined. All American Display Fireworks urges its customers to follow instructions based on the NFPA 1123 Code for Outdoor Fireworks Displays as well as the Pyrotechnics Guild International

Display Operator’s Guide. These instructions are suggested practice and do not reflect final format. Ultimately, it is the Customer’s responsibility to obey all local, state & federal laws and maintain required records. Know the laws and regs.
