The cross-referenced provisions are extracted here for all the requirements incorporated in 6(c)(3). Downstream refurbishers are required to meet the requirements of Provision 6 in order to qualify as a downstream refurbisher under Provision 6(c)(3). Any outsourcing to a downstream refurbisher is therefore expected to meet the same requirements as imposed on the R2:2013 certified recycler. Prov.

Data Destruction Requirements If equipment is not sanitized of data prior to shipment from the R2:2013 recycler, then the downstream refurbisher must meet the requirements of Provision 8 for Data Destruction. Use the Downstream Data Destruction Vendor Checklist to qualify the refurbisher for Data Destruction requirements under R2:2013 Provision 6(b)(2). 5-Downstream Data Destruction Vendor Checklist.docx Recycling of Residual equipment containing FMs Downstream refurbishers who are not certified to R2:2013 must also meet the downstream requirements for recycling residual components containing Focus Materials from the refurbishment process. This includes any components removed during repair that contain FMs. It also includes any equipment that could not be resold or could not be repaired to a working status and therefore must be recycled. Use the Downstream Non- R2:2013 Certified Recycler Checklist to qualify the refurbisher to the Provision 3 and Provision 5 requirements for recycling of these residuals. Downstream Non-R2:2013 Certified Recycler Checklist.docx The above information applies to the minimum requirements of R2:2013 Provision 6 for downstream due diligence of refurbishers not certified to R2:2013. Additional evaluation is recommended. Onsite audits are encouraged.
