Compliance Procedures – 4 Stages

• Stage 1 – Notification of Potential Stewards

• Stage 2 – MOE Confirmation Letter

• Stage 3 – MOE Enforcement

• Stage 4 – Stewardship Ontario Audits

Slide 13

Stage 1- Notification

• First class letter to all identified potential steward organizations in January

• Phone calls to key potential stewards (Top 300)

• Thorough review & paring of original list

• Follow-up phone call (call centre) to all non-respondents in May/June

• Final warning letter part of procedures before MOE Enforcement

Slide 14

Stage 2 – MOE Confirmation Letter

• Primary purpose to confirm legitimacy of Stewardship Ontario (feedback following call centre activities)

• Supported by MOE Enforcement

• Mailed August 30th with supporting Stewardship Ontario instructions

• Letter targeted at the outstanding notified & registered potential stewards

Slide 15

Stage 3 – MOE Enforcement

• MOE recruiting & training two dedicated enforcement officers

• Preparing 2-3 test cases for enforcement procedures

• Stewardship prepares & transfers file of evidence & contacts

• Once enforcement procedures begins, MOE proceeds to charging

Slide 16

Stage 4 – Stewardship Ontario Audits

• Initial advisory group meeting set for September 1st

• Members include RCC, CCGD, FCPMC, LCBO, Refreshments Canada, BDO Dunwoody

• Decision to be taken on percent of stewards & percent of reported quantities to audit

• Target start date is October

“Governance”

Slide 19

Process to Date

Future Structure Committee reviewed:

• Slides presented at July workshop & webcast

• Notes on Round Table discussions circulated for review & comment by participants

• Comments/submissions received following workshop & notes posted

• Draft discussion paper prepared

Recommendations of Committee approved by Board of Directors for purposes of consultation

Slide 20

Discussion Paper Included:

• Overview of consultation process & timing

• Profile of registered stewards

• Key functions of Stewardship Ontario & key stakeholders identified

• Key governance issues to be addressed

• Broad options for structuring board

• Copies of all background material

Slide 21

Options Identified

• Board consisting of stewards only with voting allocated on basis of:

a) fees only

b) modify existing board to reflect fees paid by sector, or

c) combination of fees paid & quantities of Blue Box waste reported

• Board consisting of stewards & representatives from industry supply chain

• Board consisting of stewards, suppliers & other stakeholders

Slide 22

Principles Identified

• Structure must fairly represent members who pay fees

• Basis for setting fees must be transparent

• Information used to set fees must be accessible

• Board must be accountable to membership

Slide 23

Preliminary Recommendation

Rationale:

• WDO serves as multi-stakeholder body provides oversight of activities of Stewardship

Ontario

• Other affected stakeholders have successfully made their views known to WDO, the Government of Ontario & Stewardship Ontario

Voting representation for board by stewards only

Slide 24

Preliminary Recommendation

Rationale, continued:

• Key issue for AMO is calculation of annual net cost of Ontario’s Blue Box program input is assured through equal representation on MIPC

(which undertakes this work) & through their role on WDO

• Need remains for an industry-only body to manage obligated stewards’ affairs

• Effective mechanism required for input from other key stakeholders NGOs, waste management companies, suppliers

Slide 25

Current Board Structure

• Founding Board of Directors represent 7 existing industry sectors represented on WDO expected to be designated stewards

Food & Consumer Products Manufacturers of Canada

Canadian Council of Grocery Distributors

Retail Council of Canada

Refreshments Canada

Canadian Newspaper Association

Liquor Control Board of Ontario

Canadian Paint & Coatings Association & Canadian Consumer Specialty Products Association

Stewardship Ontario CEO (ex-officio) Slide 26

Size & Composition of Revised Board

• 10 - 15 members with representation by industry sector through delegate steward or trade association

Consumable Products: FCPMC, Refreshments Canada, CCSPA

Retail & Distribution: RCC, CCGD, ORHMA

Beverage Alcohol: LCBO

Printed Media: CNA, OCNA

Other Sectors (TBD): durables (appliances, shoes, etc.)

At large: Stewardship Ontario CEO

Slide 27

Board Sectors

• Should be weighted to reflect fees paid by sector

• Preliminary weightings based upon stewards reports to date:

SECTOR SEATS

Consumables 6

Retail & Distribution 4

Beverage Alcohol 1

Printed Media 1

Other Sectors (TBD) 2

At large 1

Total (maximum) 15

Slide 28

Review Sectors Annually

• Adjust defined sectors & sector weightings if the relative percentage of fees paid by any sector varies by ± 10%

• Staggered appointments for individuals to board would be for three year periods

• Board restructuring through election by membership at Stewardship Ontario’s 2005 Annual General Meeting

Slide 29

Feedback Appreciated On…

• Proposed board governance model• Sector weightings• Inclusion of “other” industry sectors• Options for other stakeholders to have access

to board top-to-top meetings with industry sectors committees of board observers

• Size of board Slide 30

Next Steps

• Review of comments by Future Structure Committee by September 7

• Review & decision of board on September 14

• Forward to WDO

Slide 33

Market Development Backgrounder

3 Part Presentation

1) Review 2003 Blue Box Recovery Rates

2) Present Market Development planned activities for 2005 & impact on fees

3) Invite comment for final input to Stewardship Ontario Board of Directors

Slide 34

Background

• Discuss market development activities as per approved Blue Box Program Plan (BBPP) – i.e. 50% Blue Box recovery by 2006

• Recognize that Minister’s request for 60% diversion of Blue Box materials by 2008 will likely require: additional market development

enhanced recovery efforts (i.e. beyond approved plan)

Blue Box Recovery Summary

• Approved BBPP set target of 50% recovery by 2006 system needed addition of about 35,000 tonnes/year of curbside

recycling from 2002 to 2006 (i.e. total of 145,000 tonnes)

• In 2003, almost 53,000 more tonnes were recycled up from about 33,000 more tonnes in 2002

• Generation of obligated printed papers & plastics are down based on additional waste audit information & in the case of ONP, stewards’ reports

• Projected Blue Box recovery rate has increased from 46.1% in 2002 to 53% for 2003

• Steward reports & an aggressive audit program (through the E&E fund) will be used in 2005 to continue to improve accuracy of Blue Box generation estimates

Slide 37

Three Part Market Development

• The BBPP contains a three part market development program to meet material specific targets: mixed glass,

“green” procurement &

“other material” plans

Slide 38

Glass Market Development Investment Program

Two Glass Funds

1. REOI (longer term)

2. Glass Business Planning/Feasibility Study: “Glass Diversion Fund” (nearer term)

Slide 39

1) REOI (longer term)

• Up to $2 M (from glass Stewards) for 2004/05

• Initiating meetings with GTA municipalities re: mixed glass tonnes available

• Detailed RFP for qualified applicants (fall/winter)

Glass Market Development Investment Program

Slide 40

2) Glass Business Planning/Feasibility Study: “Glass Diversion Fund” (nearer term)

• $500K business planning & feasibility study fund to support projects up to $25K (matching funding basis) e.g. local investment opportunities

• Funding guidelines now posted on Stewardship Ontario website - first project funding expected in fall 2004

Glass Market Development Investment Program

PROGRAM GOAL - stabilize markets, higher value uses, reduce net costs by at least $10/tonne focused on GTA/Golden Horseshoe tonnes

Slide 41

Heard at July Consultation

• Five written responses to July 15 workshop materials: 1 steward; 4 material suppliers

• Common comments: Quality control & increased recovery are of higher importance

for most materials than market development Need for regular “state of the market” meeting for all

stakeholders Limited interest in green procurement Concern regarding Stewardship Ontario’s role on the issue of

cooperative marketing Two targeted materials requiring market development are

mixed broken glass & plastics #3 to #7

Slide 42

Stewardship Ontario Green Procurement Plans for 2005

• BBPP commits Stewardship Ontario to a business planning process that examines potential benefits of launching a new green procurement program

• Steward reaction to research to date has been neutral at best Stewards want to see tangible benefits before making a

major investment Whatever might be done must be voluntary in nature

• Not seen as a 2005 high priority given other pressures & current overall system performance against 50% target

Slide 43

Green Procurement Recommendation

• Focus procurement activities on tangible opportunities (e.g. examine/promote glass-in-aggregate applications developed through the glass fund)

• Participate in MOE & /or WDO – led procurement discussions that may result from Minister’s 60% goal

• On-going business planning to examine potential benefits & costs

Slide 44

“Other Material” Market Recommendations

• No substantial new “Other Material” market development activities recommended until 2005/2008 targets are established by Minister

• Initiate planning for film/other plastics REOI in mid 2005 (for 2006 fees) = $100K in 2005 fees

• Develop “Enhanced Recovery” program plan in 2005 (for 2006 implementation) based on detailed analysis of February 3, 2004 datacall results

• Priorize “least cost next tonne”/enhanced recovery projects though E&E Fund in 2005

Section 9.10 - Setting Fees

Appendix XI - Pay In Model, and

Appendix IX - Cost Allocation Principles

• On the Stewardship Ontario website March 2 Presentation on preliminary fees for 2004

Cost Allocation Study - Final Report, March 2004

Slide 50

What Are The 2005 Fees?

• Fees for 2005 are significantly higher than for 2003 & 2004

• Increase in per-kg fee rates range from increases of 1to 2%

to very high increases on % basis

Objective of presentation

• Explain how these increases arise & fall on various material groups

Slide 51

Obligation & Fees• Size of the obligation

Slide 53

Key Factors Causing Increase1. The law requires industry to pay 50%50% of the cost of the

Blue Box system

Until now the industry share has been significantly lessless than 50%

The system is growing – CPI, population, performance

2. The entire obligation must be paid - must make up any shortfall due to fee rates too low

Initial fees set without data from stewards

cost spread over too many tonnes – fee rates generally lower than required

Slide 54

1st – The Rising Obligation

1. By how much has industry paid less than 50% & why?

2. How much is the actual cost increasing & why?

Slide 55

Industry Contribution 2003-2005

1st Key Cause For Change In Fees• The law requires industry to pay 50%50% of the cost of the Blue Box

system

Until now the industry share has been significantly lessless than 50%

The discount has now been removed

Slide 60

2nd – Obligation & Generation

The entire obligation must be paid - must make up any shortfall due to fee rates too low

Initial fees set without data from stewards

cost spread over too many tonnes – fee rates generally lower than required

Slide 61

Status Of Collecting Fees

As of August 20:

• Registrations: 2,484

• Obligated stewards reported:1,022

• Amount of targeted packaging tonnage reported: 75.6%

• Amount of projected fees reported: 90.2%

• Projected additional recoverable levies considering possible re-filing: 5.9%

• Projected fees collected: 96.1%

Slide 63

Why The Shortfall?

• There are four reasons for this difference: Imprecision of waste audit data Misreporting by registered stewards Unidentified stewards Non-compliance

• Model allowed for 5% non-compliance & 5% de minimis Meaning fees spread over 90% of estimated generation

Slide 64

Consequences Of Shortfall

• If the expected tonnes are not reported, then the fees will fall short of the obligation

• The shortfall will not be equal for all materials Materials for which reported generation higher than

projected will have over-paid

Materials which were low, under-paid

• Net effect will be a deficit carried over from 03 & 04 program years

AND…..

Slide 65

Consequences cont’d• Potential for shortfall in future years:

if we distribute the fees over generation projections that exceed reported generation

▪ $ allocation divided by tonnes generated

Therefore…..

• Decisions considered by Board to address the two issues: Avoid shortfall in future years

Deal with shortfall from 03 & 04

Slide 66

Board Decision #1

• Tie setting of annual fee rates to quantities reported by stewards Set 2005 fee rates using current & projected

stewards reports

Future years set fees after stewards report quantities

Slide 67

Board Decision #2• Shortfall for 2003 & 2004 => $1.6 million (~2.5% of projected 05

costs including allowance for re-filing)

• To be reduced using unexpended program funds of $500,000 Green procurement Market development planning Compliance Waste audits & program reviews

• Remaining shortfall to be made up in 05 fees =>$1.1 million (<2% of 05 costs)

Slide 68

Board Decision #3Approaches to distribution of shortfall

1. Apply shortfall to specific materials for which shortfall exists

Alternatively,

2. Put a portion (or all) of shortfall across all materials in same way as other general costs (e.g. admin) Since non-compliance is not related to complying

stewards in any specific material

• As reporting improves, resulting over-reporting can be reallocated in future years

Slide 69

2nd Key Cause for Change in Fees• The entire obligation must be paid

Making up the 03 & 04 shortfall in 05

Spreading the fees over a reduced number of tonnes

▪ To prevent compounding shortfall

▪ In future, stewards report before fees set

• The affects are not equal across all materials

Slide 70

Summary Of IncreasesIncreases due to:

1. Increased municipal obligation 40%(removal of discount, increased tonnes, CPI, revenue)

2. Shortfall in fees collected <2%

3. Smaller base of tonnes 23%

Offset by decrease:

• admin & other program costs 48%

Overall increase in fees => 26.7%

Materials not affected equally

Slide 71

Basis of Fee Payments• Same funding formula as in BBPP

• Based on data for 2003: Generation

Recovery

Gross municipal cost

Municipal revenue

• Apportioned to materials using three factors relative cost (40%) recovery rate (40%) Equalization (20%) - cost to achieve 75% recovery

• Add allocations for admin & other program costs Slide 72

Slide 74

Distribution of Admin & Program CostsFor 04 fees

• Distribute program & admin costs according to est. relative # stewards in each material group

• Reduced fixed allocation to LCBO & Newspaper Thinking at the time that relatively few stewards meant a low driver

of cost

But, for 05 fees,

• Recognize need to consider sharing cost not only for members services, but also program work e.g. datacall, verification, cost allocation & program optimization which affect all materials

• # stewards in each material from registration & filing Slide 75

Key Drivers Of Fee Rates• Net cost ($) of all materials increased, except glass

• Overall 3-yr average revenue down, but some more than others

Glass, because of shift to mixed glass, Aluminum, steel down

• Some material revenue increased

Plastics increased on average Other printed paper due to increased share of ONP prices

Slide 78

Key Drivers of Fee Rates cont’d• Relative recovery rates

Other printed paper still low relative to newsprint etc. Aluminum recovery rate reported by municipalities down Paper packaging & plastics up relative to others

• Credit for aluminum lower – realizing lower price & reduced relative recovery rate

• Redistribution of admin & program costs No market development fees for glass Increased allocation (% stewards) to printed paper, aluminum,

steel, glass

Slide 79

Key Drivers of Fee Rates cont’d

• Shortfall in fees due to under-reporting

Combination of fee rates & variance in reporting

Under-reporting for plastic laminants, other printed paper & over-reporting for aluminum leads to shortfall

Over-reporting for steel & clear glass leads to credit

Slide 80

Key Drivers of Fee Rates cont’d

• Removal of in-kind contribution from non-CNA/OCNA newsprint

Contribution also no longer covers CNA/OCNA municipal obligation

• Fee rates higher due to use of reduced base of tonnes (stewards reports)

Note: aluminum credit lower due to higher reporting

Slide 81

In SummaryIncreases in overall fees due to:

1. Increased municipal obligation(removal of discount, increased tonnes, CPI, revenue)

2. Shortfall in fees collected

3. Smaller base of tonnes

Offset by decrease in:

• admin & other program costs

Materials not affected equally Relative recovery rates, costs & revenue

Slide 82

Other Issues

Other issues that have been raised:

• Aluminum credit Account for aluminum recovered through other

channels

Possibly apply credit for recycled aluminum only to recyclable aluminum, e.g. food & beverage containers

• Disaggregating fee rates
