NEW – ON: Deadline to register and pay fees to the recycling authority - find out more during the Sept 15 webinar on registration and fee payments

Producers obligated under the Hazardous and Special Products (HSP) Regulation are required to pay fees to the Authority in 2021 to fund its operations, including the costs related to building and operating the registry, and compliance and enforcement activities. The 2021 registry fees apply only to producers. Producer responsibility organizations and other service providers such as processors, haulers and disposal facilities are not required to pay fees.

HSP producers must pay their 2021 registry fees by November 30, 2021. The fees are paid at the same time producers register with the authority. The RPRA is hosting a webinar on Wednesday, September 15, 2021, from 10:00 to 11:30 am EST, to provide detailed guidance on how to register and pay fees. Register for the webinar here.

During the webinar, RPRA staff will walk through the regulatory requirements to help producers understand and meet their obligations under the new regulation and provide them with an opportunity to ask questions. CPA members are encouraged to participate in the webinar and voice any concerns and questions at that time. Marcelline Riddell, CPA Government Relations Director, Ontario, will attend the webinar and report on any relevant information raised.
