Import Tips

• Ensure the gates and risers are not reusable in the casting process, as this supports the waste and scrap classification

• Declare the weight accurately and keep records of the casting process to support the classification

• Be aware that imports of waste may be subject to environmental regulations under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act
