    The first three links on this page

    "The Explosives, Bomb Threat and Detection Resources publications are no
    longer available online. You must send in a written request to the following
    to receive a copy:..."
    
    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..
