Appeals of Background Checks

18 U.S.C. Section 843(h) requires the Attorney General to conduct background checks on the persons whose names and descriptions accompany the Federal explosives license or permit applications. This section further obligates the Attorney General to provide notification of disability to anyone who is determined to be so under Section 842(i) of this Chapter, as well as information about how such individuals can apply for relief from a disability determination. 27 CFR, Section 555.33 also states that anyone who wishes to challenge a disability determination may direct their appeal to the Director.
