6 Regulated timber products that are exempt

(1) For paragraphs 12(d) and 13(d) of the Act, the following things, or parts of things, are prescribed as exempt: (a) a regulated timber product that is entirely made from recycled material; (b) if a regulated timber product is partially made from recycled material—the part of the regulated timber product that is made from recycled material; (c) a regulated timber product that is imported as part of a consignment if the combined value of the regulated timber products in the consignment, on import, does not exceed $1 000. (2) In this section, timber in a regulated timber product is recycled material if: (a) the material has been, or has been part of, another product; and (b) at the time the material was removed from that other product, that product was no longer used for its intended purpose and was considered to be waste; and (c) the material has been used as a raw material in the regulated timber product. (3) However, material in a regulated timber product is not recycled material if the material is the by‑product of a manufacturing process.

Note: Example: Sawdust or off‑cuts from sawn timber used to make particle board or medium density fibreboard.
