IBD is generally assigned to what?

• A. Anything outside the ammunition area; building doesn't have to be inhabited all the time
• B. Inside the ammunition area; buildings must be inhabited
• C. Only inhabited buildings
• D. Roads and pathways around ammo area

Answer: (A)

Think of IBD as the protective zone that sits outside the ammunition storage boundary. The important idea is that this boundary applies to anything beyond the ammo area, and it isn’t determined by whether a building is inhabited at a given time. In other words, safety rules for the IBD focus on potential blast influence reaching outside the storage perimeter, so roads, open land, or any structures located outside the ammo area are covered by this boundary, regardless of occupancy. That broader outside-area scope is what makes the statement the best fit. The other options misplace the boundary inside the ammo area or tie it to occupancy, which isn’t how IBD is defined.
