What happens if a producer’s exemption status changes from year-to-year?

A producer whose exemption status changes from year to year must continue reporting their exemption status when supply reports are due. If a producer is exempt for three consecutive years, their registration status can be changed to exempt. After three consecutive years, the producer shall advise Divert NS of the change to their registration status.

Note: All producers are asked annually to confirm if they meet the small producer exemption criteria as part of their supply report submission.
