RPRA is consulting on its draft Hazardous and Special Products (HSP) Supply Data Verification Procedure from Wednesday, June 1 to Wednesday, July 6, 2022. RPRA is consulting on the procedure so those required to reference it, such as producers, and their verifiers, have an opportunity to provide feedback during the development process.
Producers of categories A (oil filters, non-refillable pressurized containers) and B (oil containers, antifreeze, solvents, paints and coatings, pesticides, refillable pressurized containers) will reference the procedure when submitting their first Supply Data Verification Report to RPRA in 2022.
RPRA hosted a webinar on Wednesday, June 15 from 10:00 to 11:30 am to discuss the proposed principles and methodologies used in the draft procedure. View the following webinar materials:
Those directly affected are encouraged to submit feedback on the draft procedure to consultations@rpra.ca by July 6, 2022. RPRA will consider all feedback received during the consultation period when finalizing the procedure.
Background
Under the HSP Regulation, producers of oil filters, oil containers, antifreeze, solvents, paints and coatings, pesticides, and non-refillable and refillable pressurized containers are required to report new supply information to RPRA each year. Supply data for HSP materials can only be reported to RPRA by a producer in accordance with the Hazardous and Special Products Verification and Audit Procedure.
Starting in 2022, producers will need to submit a verification report to verify the supply data being reported to RPRA. Producers will need to work with a qualified person to complete a verification report to verify the supply data being submitted.
