  (5) weather conditions, including those which may cause possible adverse blasting effects such as temperature, and wind direction and approximate velocity;
  (6) type of material blasted;
  (7) sketches of the blast pattern, including number of holes, burden, spacing, decks, and delay pattern;
  (8) diameter and depth of holes;
  (9) types of explosives used;
  (10) total weight of explosives used per hole;
  (11) maximum weight of explosives detonated within any 8-millisecond period;
  (12) maximum number of holes detonated within any 8-millisecond period;
  (13) initiation system;
  (14) type and length of stemming;
  (15) mats or other protections used;
  (16) type of delay detonator and delay periods used;
  (17) sketch of the delay pattern;
  (18) number of persons in the blasting crew;
