§ 211.102. Scope.

 (a)  This chapter applies to persons using, storing, purchasing and selling explosives and engaging in blasting activities within this Commonwealth. Persons using and storing explosives at underground mines are exempt from this chapter. The storage of explosives in magazines on the surface at an underground noncoal mine is subject to the applicable requirements of this chapter. The provisions of this chapter that are more stringent than the blasting provisions in Chapters 77, 87 and 88 (relating to noncoal mining; surface mining of coal; and anthracite coal) apply to blasting activities at coal or noncoal surface mines.

 (b)  Compliance with this chapter does not relieve a person who is engaged in the purchase or sale of explosives, or blasting activities, from compliance with other applicable laws or regulations of the Commonwealth.
