This program is used by shippers, brokers and wholesalers who are registered in the CHTWPCP program.
Each facility receives a CFIA CA number and a mill agency number.
Shippers, brokers or wholesalers cannot stamp lumber or be a kiln facility.
Registered shippers, brokers and wholesalers have the ability to purchase wood from other registered facilities and consolidate the volumes onto a single certificate.
CMSA is a third-party agency that audits these programs. Audits include document reviews and chain of custody assurance. Audits may be performed quarterly.
