Material Cost Differentiation Methodology
Consultation Materials Available

Thank you to those who attended our consultation on the Material Cost Differentiation (MCD) Methodology yesterday. 

The webinar recording and presentation are now available here . The question and answers document will be posted in the coming days. It will be updated weekly, so please send any questions to [email protected].

As mentioned during the consultation, please consider the following when providing your feedback:
  • Do you agree that the MCD Methodology is sufficiently principle-based, fair, defensible and comprehensive? If not, why not? 
  • Is it clear how the MCD methodology will be applied and how it will contribute to fee setting? 
  • Did you find the pre-read and other project materials helpful and will you be able to use them to brief your colleagues? If not, what additional materials would be helpful? 
  • What else do you want to tell us about the proposed Material Cost Differentiation Methodology?
Please provide written feedback to [email protected] by July 23, 2020.

All feedback will be included in a consultation report and submitted to each of the Boards of Directors (Recycle BC, MMSW, MMSM, Stewardship Ontario). The Boards will consider the feedback when determining whether to approve the MCD Methodology. If approved, the intent is to utilize the Material Cost Index (MCI) when setting 2021 fees.
