Description
Explosives are used in quarrying and mining operations to carry out excavation work. A series of authorisations, to be applied for using the forms available through this service, are required for the application, management and use of explosives.
The procedures covered are: application for a certificate of use of explosives, service order for the use of explosives, application for a certificate of use of explosives (in the event of a blast), and renewal of the licence to transport explosives.
A sample template for a ‘blasting notice’ is also available in the ‘Documents’ section of this page.
