On April 8, 2009, the Minister of the Environment approved the Used Tires Program Plan as submitted by Waste Diversion Ontario on February 27, 2009.

Ontario Regulation 84/03 under the Waste Diversion Act, 2002 that designated used tires for the purpose of a diversion program has been amended to name Ontario Tire Stewardship as the Industry Funding Organization for the program.  The Amendment also provides the structure for the Board of Directors of Ontario Tire Stewardship.

Since the program was submitted to the Minister on February 27, 2009, Ontario Tire Stewardship has discovered an error in the calculation of the fees assessed to stewards.  As a result the fees identified in the program plan have changed slightly.  Please refer to the attached Errata for more information.
