| Application
Forms & Process: |

To obtain this Certificate, you must first call RRFB Nova Scotia. Your
business information is then taken over the phone and recorded on the
RRFB Nova Scotia registration system. Within 7 to 10 days, 2 copies of
the Industry Stewardship Agreement will be mailed to you. Both copies
of the Industry Stewardship Agreement must be signed and dated. One copy
is kept for your own records and the other is mailed back to RRFB Nova
Scotia. Once RRFB Nova Scotia receives the signed Stewardship Agreement,
you become a Registered Tire Retailer.
NOTE: If you submit your application by fax, you must also send the original
signed copy by mail to RRFB Nova Scotia.
Once your signed and dated Stewardship Agreement has been received by
RRFB Nova Scotia, a final package will be sent to you including your Certificate,
monthly remittance forms and information on the Tire Program.
