Where do I find ammunition distance regulations?

I need some help gents. I can not remember which TM it is in as far as the required distance that ammunition is supposed to be away from soldiers. I am signing for allot of ammunition this year at my units AT and nobody is listening that I need to be set off away from everyone else. They are expecting me to be set up with the bulk fuel section on one side(within shouting distance) and supply on the other side. I can't remember where it states the distances but I know it's there. Any help you guys can give me it would be greatly appreciated

Try DA PAM 385-64 Ammunition and Explosives Safety Standards or FM 4-30.13 Ammunition Handbook: TTPs for Ammunition Handlers.
