Known U.S. / European Conflicts (9)
DESR 6055.09↔UK ER 2014· Explosives separation distancesSignificant Difference
UK uses HSE separation tables by hazard type; apply the more restrictive distance per exposure and document both.
DESR 6055.09↔SprengG· Explosives licensing and storagePartial
German storage groups map loosely to HD; host-nation licensing is required in addition to DDESB site plan.
DESR 6055.09↔2. SprengV· Storage separation distancesPartial
Compare Lagergruppe distances to DESR QD; use larger value.
29 CFR 1910.119↔2012/18/EU· Major hazard / process safetyPartial
Seveso requires public safety report and land-use planning beyond PSM.
