FCC regulates only to 3THz (~100µm wavelength). The IR laser emission is near 200THz. Regulatory jurisdiction here is the FDA under 21 CFR 1040. Unfortunately MPE for the regulation is all based on the biology of the eye, so that is where you'd have to find your argument. Probably the best avenue to argue would be that the peak power of the short pulse is above MPE although in a practical sense the total energy may not be a problem. My guess is that in this case there would be allowable measurement methodology that both passes and fails the standard, and the legal argument would center around that.
