April 2025

If you have not filed your 2018 or 2021 submissions, you are out of compliance with the IMERC member states and we can help!

With the reporting deadline for 2024 approaching on July 1, now is the perfect time to catch up on any outstanding submissions. If your company is among those with past due submissions – or if you are unsure of your status – please contact us by responding to this email.

REMEMBER: A signed Senior Management Certification must be uploaded to every notification submission as an attachment.

By reporting to IMERC, companies are able to comply with the mercury-added product notification requirements of Connecticut, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Reporting is required for any entity that offered a mercury-added product for sale or distribution in any of the above-listed states.

These companies are required to submit a mercury-added product notification to IMERC every three years, which reports the amount of mercury sold per product during the calendar year being reported on (i.e., 2018, 2021, 2024...). If your company has not yet submitted for 2018, you must first submit that data and receive approval from the states before filing for subsequent years.

Previous Training Webinars on Product Labeling

If you were unable to attend our labeling trainings last month, we are offering recordings of both trainings (without the Q&A portions) at a cost of $50 each.

These trainings discuss "Standard Labeling Requirements for Manufacturers" and "How to Apply for an Alternative Labeling Plan." If you are interested in purchasing these recordings, please complete the request form linked below.

Upcoming Training Webinar on Product Notification

With the deadline to submit 2024 notifications quickly approaching, our IMERC Coordinators have been fielding constant inquiries from manufacturers seeking guidance on their Triennial Notification renewals. We appreciate your patience!

While we understand the need for one-on-one assistance, our availability is limited due to the high volume of requests. To ensure that as many submitters as possible receive the information they need, we are hoping to offer a training session - open to manufacturers only - that will go over how to renew a notification in the near future.

If you are interested in this training, please let us know by completing the short form linked below and stay tuned for more details!
