Regional/recycled materials

"For recycled materials qualifying under MRc4 also being applied to MRc5, it is “not necessary to track the origin of the raw material before it arrived at the point of extraction” which can include a “recycling facility, scrap yard, depository, stockpile,” etc." This has indeed been the case for many years; at least for 9 years. I can no longer remember where I learned this. I have used this to help manufacturers properly claim the point-of-origin for recycled products used in their final products. Maybe someone else can remember the original source and note how long this has been allowed to those who knew about this, but not those who did not.
