I see someone got their way....
This is a first attempt to define something that the TRA should codify in line with 1127 manufacturer exemptions.
The TRA BoD shall ultimately define this.
Exempt rocket motor-
A rocket motor which has been produced by a licensed commercial manufacturer, made for use by any other entity exempt from NFPA 1127 as stated in section 1.3.3(1),(2) & (3).
1.3.3 This code shall not apply to the design, construction,
production, manufacture, fabrication, maintenance, launch,
flight, test, operation, use, or other activity connected with a
rocket or rocket motor where carried out or engaged in by the
following entities:
(1) National, state, or local government
(2) An individual, a firm, a partnership, a joint venture, a
corporation, or other business entity engaged as a licensed
business in the research, development, production,
testing, maintenance, or supply of rockets, rocket
motors, rocket propellant chemicals, or rocket components
or parts
(3) College or university
Exempt motors shall be treated the same as Demonstration motors but they may be sold for profit.
Exempt entities as defined in 1.3.3 must be certified users.
All users must have a Level 2 or higher and may only use motors within their certification level.
