*Report only post-consumer materials on this form. Post-consumer material: Material that has been used as a consumer item and then diverted from municipal solid waste for the purpose of collection and recycling. The term excludes material generated in manufacturing and converting processes such as manufacturing scrap and trimmings/cuttings. Also, print overruns, overissue publications, and absolete inventories that did not leave the generating facility would be classified as pre-consumer materials and should not be reported on this form.
**Enter GROSS WEIGHT of all material. DO NOT subtract any processing residue as PA DEP has a formula it will apply.
