Dear Valued Customers; Please note that on June 13, 2009, AM Pyrotechnics received a letter from the MO State Fire Marshal's Office. We would like to state some of the rulings within this letter below, and note that AM Pyrotechnics will fully comply with this ruling.
 
Aerial shells labeled as "Fireworks, UN0333, 1.1G" will not be permitted to be fired in an approved public display within the state. Furthermore under the regulations, fireworks labeled "UN0333, 1.1G" meet the definition of "illegal fireworks" in Missouri
 
For these reasons, all Missouri licensed manufacturers and distributors must immediately stop the manufacture and/or sale of any items labeled as "Fireworks, UN0333, 1.1G". As these items now exceed the federal limits listed in 320.136 RSMo, they are now classified as illegal fireworks in the state of Missouri and banned from use, sale, and possession in Missouri. Missouri licensed manufacturers and distributors should notify anyone purchasing display fireworks of this ban.
 
Additionally, all Missouri licensed display operators must immediately cease the use of any display fireworks labeled as "Fireworks, UN0333, 1.1G".
