Users of ScrapTheftAlert.com are encouraged to visit ISRI's new site, StopMetalsTheft.org. This site provides law enforcement, prosecutors, and the recycling industry with on-line tools to aid in the fight against metals theft. These tools include a Glossary of Common Materials Processed by Recycling Companies to aid in the identification of metals; compliance and Regulated Items posters; links to specific state metals theft statutes; Recommended Practices and Procedures for Minimizing the Risk of Purchasing Stolen Materials; and frequently asked questions. The site will be updated on a continual basis. Together, StopMetalsTheft.org and ScrapTheftAlert.com are part of the recycling industry’s efforts to battle metals theft.
