The ARA Denver test site consists of 52 acres of land that was previously a Titan I launch site. ARA uses the surface area of this site for testing purposes. The entire area is secured with 6-foot "cyclone" fencing with facilities on a 24-hour security system. Basic utilities are provided including 3-phase power. On-site explosive storage is available with a maximum of 1,000 lb. NEW (Net Explosive Weight) in the primary bunker and 200 lb. NEW in a separate portable bunker. Test arenas have been built and have instrument junction boxes with cable extending to the instrumentation recording area.

An instrumentation trailer and an office trailer supply housing for test operation requirements. Up to 5 lb. NEW (uncased) may be detonated in the free air with larger yields being used for buried tests. Tests are routinely conducted with the aid of mobile instrumentation and workshop trailers. Since the test site is remote and self-sufficient, multiple tests can be conducted in one day.

The test site and operating procedures are inspected quarterly by a DCASMA safety officer.This site has never failed an inspection nor incurred an accident. Arrangements are in place with fire departments and emergency medical services should their assistance be required.
