REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 38A, § 30.

In subsection (a)(1)(i) of this section, the references to the "buyer" or
"seller" are substituted for the former references to the "vendor" or
"vendee", respectively, for clarity. Consequently, in subsection (b)(1)(i) and
(3)(i) of this section, the reference to each "buyer" is substituted for the
former reference to each "purchaser" for consistency.

In subsection (a)(1)(iii) of this section, the reference to a "description" of the
explosives is substituted for the former reference to the "kind" of explosives
to conform with subsection (b)(1)(ii) and (3)(ii) of this section.

In subsection (a)(2) of this section, the former reference to "duly
authorized" agents is deleted as implicit.

Defined terms: "Dealer" § 11-101
"Explosives" § 11-101
"Manufacturer" § 11-101
"State" § 1-101

11-113. REPORTS OF THEFT OF EXPLOSIVES.

STATE FIRE MARSHAL:

(1)      IMMEDIATELY BY TELEPHONE; AND

(2)      BY A WRITTEN REPORT IN THE FORM REQUIRED BY THE STATE FIRE
MARSHAL.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived without substantive
change from former Art. 38A, § 33A.

In the introductory language of this section, the former reference to the
"office of" the State Fire Marshal is deleted as surplusage.

In item (1) of this section, the former reference to reporting a theft "upon
discovery" is deleted as implicit in light of the requirement that the theft
be reported immediately.
