Event Details
Join us for a 1-hour webinar on Phase 2 of the Federal Plastics Registry.
Officials from Environment & Climate Change Canada (ECCC) will deliver a presentation overviewing the Registry, followed by a discussion period. The discussion will be an open forum for members to ask their questions, express any concerns, and share scenarios. This discussion will support development of the guidance materials for Phase 2 of the Federal Plastics Registry.
More information on the Federal Plastics Registry:
The Federal Plastics Registry will require companies (including resin manufacturers, service providers and producers of plastic products) to report annually on the quantity and types of plastic they manufacture, import, and place on the market. Producers of plastic products and service providers will also be required to report on the quantity of plastic collected for diversion, reused, repaired, remanufactured, refurbished, recycled, processed into chemicals, composted, incinerated, and landfilled. Reporting on the amount of packaging and other plastic waste generated on industrial, commercial and institutional (ICI) premises will be mandatory.
W2RO members may be impacted by Phase 2 of the Registry as ICI waste generators or service providers for plastic waste. Phase 1 of the Registry is focused on producers.
