Here is a blurb from the Edwards flight manual:

13.8. OVERFLIGHT OF THE DETACHMENT 7 AIR FORCE RESEARCH LABORATORY (Fig 13-2).
*13.8.1. Solid rocket engine firings are conducted on Leuhman Ridge on a periodic basis. A potential hazard exists from fragments due to accidental motor explosion and from toxic clouds due to exotic fuels. The hazardous area includes Leuhman Ridge and extends east along Mars Blvd. to Haystack Butte. Coordinate with the Safety Operations Center at extension 5-5632 on all anticipated flights below 5,300’ MSL. This flight restriction also encompasses the X-33 Operations Area.

So Det 7 is detachment 7. Beyond that, who knows...
