REWOOD 2029: The Landfill Ban That Makes AI Classification Mandatory
In 2029, Ontario's REWOOD regulation makes it illegal to landfill clean wood. Not discouraged. Not penalized. Criminal.
Today, the 905WOOD Compliance Gate is a competitive advantage. In three years, it becomes a legal requirement. Every load of construction wood in Ontario must be classified before disposal.
The classification gap: Most operators use visual inspection (vulnerable to the Visual Fallacy), transfer stations (landfill 66%), or no classification at all ($60/tonne CIRCIL). After REWOOD, transfer station disposal is criminal for clean wood, no classification is financially suicidal, and visual-only is legally indefensible.
The only viable path: automated, documented, audit-proof classification. The Digital Refinery's Compliance Gate — already built, tested, and generating $1,034/load in savings.
REWOOD restructures the entire value chain: GCs must ensure classification. Carriers must document cargo. Facilities must verify feedstock. Insurance reprices risk. The Digital Refinery sits at the center of all four relationships.
905WOOD's three-year head start means the system is deployed and revenue-generating before competitors begin development.
