  Large producers for supply data verification

  Producers whose average supply meets the large producer threshold in the below chart must submit a verification report for that reporting year.

  Example: Producers of oil filters that have an average weight of supply in their 2023 supply report that exceeds 100 tonnes are considered a large producer and must submit a verification report for oil filters in 2024.

  

  Small producers for supply data verification

  Producers who are below the threshold are considered small producers. Small producers are only required to submit a verification report but will be subject to inspections.

  From October 1, 2021, to December 31, 2022, producers are required to establish the following:

  • Collection sites – maintain at least the same number of sites that producers had at the end of the MHSW Program
  • Collection events – make best efforts to hold the same number of events in each community as in 2020
  • Call-in Service (only applicable to large producers) – provide a phone number for communities to call to request a pickup (of 100 kg or more) if requested by a council of the band, a municipality or a territorial district not located in the Far North, a depot owned or operated by the Crown not in the Far North.

  Large producers shall make reasonable efforts to collect the HSP within one year of being notified by a representative of a council of the band located on a reserve in the Far North.
