Anytime that your definition. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11759-0 01:03:59.028 --> 01:04:05.053 Or your interpretations are different. Mean that we have to do a specific f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11759-1 01:04:05.053 --> 01:04:10.428 mapping of our materials to your requirements for your reporting. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11779-0 01:04:10.428 --> 01:04:13.905 And again, this is as more and more states take on f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11779-1 01:04:13.905 --> 01:04:17.110 EPR. That's extremely complex for producers to f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11779-2 01:04:17.110 --> 01:04:19.428 do that on a state by state basis. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11789-0 01:04:20.918 --> 01:04:23.438 So that's my overarching comments. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11797-0 01:04:23.558 --> 01:04:27.555 Specifically, I wanted to understand how you address f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11797-1 01:04:27.555 --> 01:04:28.158 pallets. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11807-0 01:04:29.068 --> 01:04:33.108 Heavy home appliances aren't always square. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11854-0 01:04:33.108 --> 01:04:38.579 They require a pallet for delivery, for forklift and so forth and so f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11854-1 01:04:38.579 --> 01:04:44.447 sometimes a reusable palette is part of what we would consider a tertiary f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11854-2 01:04:44.447 --> 01:04:50.473 packaging and I wanted to understand how you how you view a palette in your f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11854-3 01:04:50.473 --> 01:04:51.108 program. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11871-0 01:04:53.326 --> 01:04:57.545 Yeah. So in, in the definition of consumer retailer is f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11871-1 01:04:57.545 --> 01:04:58.926 is not a consumer. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11883-0 01:04:59.406 --> 01:05:02.446 I'm. I'll just take this hypothetical. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11898-0 01:04:59.406 --> 01:05:01.486 I'm. I'll just take this. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11900-0 01:05:02.446 --> 01:05:07.292 We'll assume we're talking about retailers receiving appliances on pallets, f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11900-1 01:05:07.292 --> 01:05:08.886 so those pallets are not. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11910-0 01:05:09.046 --> 01:05:11.526 Don't meet the definition of packaging material, however. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11918-0 01:05:09.046 --> 01:05:11.166 Don't meet the definition of packaging material. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11920-0 01:05:11.526 --> 01:05:14.046 It's our understanding that there's a lot of collection. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11926-0 01:05:14.156 --> 01:05:15.596 Pallets and then recirc. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11933-0 01:05:14.156 --> 01:05:14.996 Pallets and then. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11934-0 01:05:15.596 --> 01:05:17.596 Is it reuse of the pallets? f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11940-0 01:05:17.756 --> 01:05:21.276 So we we anticipate that there will be establishment. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11958-0 01:05:21.556 --> 01:05:24.506 Well, it would be to producers benefit to f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11958-1 01:05:24.506 --> 01:05:29.914 establish an alternative collection, collect the pallets and then have those f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11958-2 01:05:29.914 --> 01:05:30.476 pallets. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11977-0 01:05:31.966 --> 01:05:37.146 To or those tons of those pallets to offset other other producers fee f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11977-1 01:05:37.146 --> 01:05:37.886 schedules. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11981-0 01:05:38.406 --> 01:05:39.046 There might be. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11994-0 01:05:38.406 --> 01:05:38.926 There might. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11996-0 01:05:39.046 --> 01:05:42.715 There are probably instances where pallets are gonna constitute packaging f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/11996-1 01:05:42.715 --> 01:05:43.806 material depending on. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12006-0 01:05:44.476 --> 01:05:46.476 Who is receiving it? f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12019-0 01:05:46.796 --> 01:05:49.316 So in the case of not but. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12025-0 01:05:47.248 --> 01:05:52.362 Right. And in some of the other states, they are excluded from programs because f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12025-1 01:05:52.362 --> 01:05:54.088 they're reusable component. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12048-0 01:05:54.568 --> 01:05:57.935 So if you would take that into consideration, f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12048-1 01:05:57.935 --> 01:06:02.328 we have that in I think both Colorado and Oregon currently. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12064-0 01:06:02.328 --> 01:06:06.423 So maybe there's some language there that we can look at together and and I can f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12064-1 01:06:06.423 --> 01:06:08.368 make note of in my my formal comments. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12066-0 01:06:08.926 --> 01:06:09.286 OK. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12091-0 01:06:09.446 --> 01:06:15.546 So this is the the packaging material types list is an appendix to the rule f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12091-1 01:06:15.546 --> 01:06:21.726 that has already been accepted by the board as of December of last year, so. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12089-0 01:06:21.438 --> 01:06:21.958 Right. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12105-0 01:06:23.406 --> 01:06:27.326 This does not change any of the language in the rule or statute. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12110-0 01:06:27.366 --> 01:06:31.286 It just is an appendix to that. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12121-0 01:06:33.316 --> 01:06:33.716 Yep. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12122-0 01:06:34.396 --> 01:06:36.716 Can we clarify tertiary packaging a little bit more? f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12142-0 01:06:34.396 --> 01:06:36.436 Can we clarify tertiary packaging a little bit? f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12143-0 01:06:36.716 --> 01:06:40.088 Because I think, infused by this, quite frankly, f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12143-1 01:06:40.088 --> 01:06:44.836 because when I maybe I misread something, I misunderstood something. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12149-0 01:06:44.996 --> 01:06:47.356 When I went through the comments and in the rules. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12171-0 01:06:48.636 --> 01:06:54.335 The revised rules say packaging material is to be considered received by the f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12171-1 01:06:54.335 --> 01:06:58.036 consumer unless the producer can prove otherwise. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12184-0 01:06:58.076 --> 01:07:01.462 And that, as I recall, was the response given to a question f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12184-1 01:07:01.462 --> 01:07:03.156 about pallets in the question. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12203-0 01:07:04.146 --> 01:07:07.083 That were published. So I'm very confused about tertiary fact f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12203-1 01:07:07.083 --> 01:07:09.546 and please explain do do producers report those in? f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12213-0 01:07:09.746 --> 01:07:12.546 You expecting that they pay on turf fairy packaging? f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12223-0 01:07:12.586 --> 01:07:15.546 How do they know how it's made as producers are not recyclers? f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12240-0 01:07:15.986 --> 01:07:16.426 So. f710c8af-437a-4ff3-83db-82888a217a89/12241-0 01:07:16.466 --> 01:07:20.259 Right.
