Pat Rooff received a similar call from the DOT about
the details of identity collection. The DOT told Pat
Rooff we would still need to do junking certificates
as we always have and only cars done by the affi-
davit system will be handled through the new pro-
cess.
In regard to the affidavit form, Sue suggested begin-
ning January 1, 2016, we voluntarily use a form Jim
Piazza has proposed as a best business manage-
ment practice when taking in vehicles by affidavit.
This was also agreeable to the scrap metal recy-
clers via previous conversations with their repre-
sentatives.
Pat said Mike Athey (DOT) would be willing to at-
tend a round table discussion with the IAR Board to
discuss our comments and concerns. It was decid-
ed to ask Mike if November 10th, 11th or 12th would
work for him with lunch at noon and a meeting at 1
pm at a location in Ankeny. By then the rule should
be drafted so we will have the opportunity to talk
with DOT about our concerns.

Mike Swift assured the board that the national asso-
ciation is working on getting OEM data into our
parts management system so we can more easily
track recalled parts as a result of a federal law pro-
hibiting the sale of recalled parts as well as enhanc-
ing the interchange of parts once OEM data is ac-
quired.
