Military Munitions Rule Awareness Practice Test

Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following items is generally not considered a waste military munition?

Unused explosives

Inactive training munitions

Scrap metal from munitions

Expended munitions with no remaining explosive potential

The item that is generally not considered a waste military munition is expended munitions with no remaining explosive potential. This is because once munitions have been expended, they have served their intended purpose and are no longer capable of functioning as munitions. They do not pose the same risks or regulatory concerns associated with hazardous wastes, as they have been rendered safe.

In contrast, unused explosives and scrap metal from munitions may still contain hazardous materials or properties that require them to be classified and handled as waste. Inactive training munitions, while not actively dangerous like live munitions, also require special handling and do not qualify as completely harmless, as they still represent a form of military munition that has not been fully disposed of.
