1What would you recommend as minimum requirements for screening suppliers prior to entering into a contract or PO with them? What are recommended "best practices"?

3EU RoHS - Currently there are some exemptions for Lead and Copper. Is there an extension date yet or one coming? Any sense of how long we will get to comply?

4Concerning Conflict Minerals compliance, some Customers have given notice that there are smelters they prefer not to appear in their supply chain. What is the most ethical method for removing certain smelters from our supply chain? I see reporting companies simply repeat the request down the supply chain. Would this process actually eliminate these smelters?

5I am also a compliance team of one, and I am wondering how you keep on top of which regulations you need to watch to keep your company ahead of the curve and out of trouble? We are a global company and it's me reading everything I can and subscribing to email lists and LinkedIn groups to keep an eye out for anything that might affect us and this is not my only job function. Any insight you could provide on your best methods would be greatly appreciated.

6Are there companies that specialize in gathering all compliance laws/regulations/directives, worldwide, and arrange them in a sortable/filterable database so companies can be sure they are informed of all new laws and updates to existing laws that apply to them?

9Some States in the US require that the importer of record to register for chemicals used in their product that are listed under the chemical of high concern. For example “Washington Safe Product Act guidance document: Report the amount of the CHCC that is present in any product component and product category. Report the highest amount that would be found in the product component for each product category. If the CHCC is intentionally added, it must be reported at any amount above the PRACTICAL QUANTITATION LIMIT (PQL) If the CHCC is present as a contaminant, it must be reported at any amount above 100 parts per million (ppm), unless the manufacturer has a manufacturing control program in place and exercises DUE DILIGENCE to minimize the level of the contaminant. You can report in RANGES rather than the exact amount.” I would like to understand the PQL, learn about the due diligence and who are exempted from the reporting requirements.

10REACH - Articles We do not sell direct to users, we sell through distribution. If we have an article that contains an SVHC (and does not intentionally emit it). And we know that the SVHC is greater than .1%wt/wt. I believe we have to notify our distributor of this fact in advance? Please clarify. What is an acceptable method to let them know that the article contains an SVHC and to be safe? Is sending along the SDS sufficient?

11It's one thing to put these programs in place. It's another thing to keep them running. What are some things you've seen people "forget" that have caused their programs to falter?
