But if you use the site's search engine:

Bomb Threat Checklist
http://www.atf.gov/explarson/information/bombthreat/checklist_old.htm

Letter and Package Bomb Detection Techniques (P3320.5)
http://www.atf.gov/press/breakingnews/bn_detect.htm

ATF Vehicle Bomb and Explosion Hazard Evacuation Distance Tables
http://www.atf.gov/pub/fire-explo_pub/i54001_old.htm

Remember, always ask the bomb-threatener for his name and address..
