Legal
In January 2017, The Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) ordered Zambelli to shut down for two weeks and fined them $200,000 after discovering stolen fireworks at the home of a former employee. During an unrelated investigation, the state police discovered the missing fireworks in 2014 and turned the matter over to the ATF. Zambelli was apparently unaware that the fireworks were missing and was ordered to revamp its recordkeeping system. No events were cancelled as a result of the enforced shutdown.[8][9]
