RPRA is consulting on proposed 2025 program fees from September 27 to November 12, 2024, for the following:
- Excess Soil and Hazardous Waste Program (HWP) registries
- Producer responsibility programs under the Resource Recovery and Circular Economy Act, 2016 (RRCEA), for:
- Batteries
- Blue Box materials
- Hazardous and Special Products (HSP)
- Electronics (Information technology, telecommunications and audio visual – ITT/AV)
- Tires
- Lighting
This proposal outlines the proposed 2025 program fees.
What are program fees?
RPRA charges fees to parties obligated under the RRCEA to recover its costs for building and operating registries, providing service to registrants, compliance and enforcement activities, and public reporting under the RRCEA. Fees charged to Excess Soil and HWP registrants go towards building, maintaining, and operating the registries, and to provide ongoing support to registry users.
How to provide your feedback
RPRA will host five Zoom webinars to present the proposal, answer questions, and gather feedback for each specific program.
Webinar schedule
Recordings and presentation slides will be available on RPRA’s website the day after each session.
Consultation is open for feedback until November 12, 2024. You can submit your comments by emailing consultations@rpra.ca.
What happens next?
RPRA will review all feedback received and finalize the 2025 program fees by December 1, 2024. The final fees, along with a summary of the consultation process and feedback, will be posted on RPRA’s website. Registrants and stakeholders will be notified once the fees are available.
