 ==  How to verify Covered Entity status ==
-So, the only time we need to delve a little deeper into the donor's identity is when he/she drops off more than 7 Covered devices.  For anyone with 8 or more, ask them to verbally verify that they a covered entity and were the last user of all the devices they are dropping off.
+So, the only time we need to delve a little deeper into the donor's identity is when he/she drops off more than 7 Covered devices.  For anyone with 8 or more, ask them to verbally verify that they're a covered entity and were the LAST USER of all the devices they are dropping off.
 For example, a person from a local non-profit recently emailed info@ asking if Free Geek would waive the fees for donating the CRT monitors.  I called her, asked if there were more than 10 paid staff.  She said, yes, there were more than 10 paid staff and so I told her that we would accept the first 7 CRT monitors free of charge but the remainder would be $7 each (and that systems and laptops were free).  In this example, her non-profit was ''not'' a Covered Entity and could, therefore, only donate 7 CED's for free.
-If you are suspicious that someone is a non-covered entity with more than 7 at any time, you can feel free to blame the strict policies of the NCER and make them call Carson Maxted for verification of their status.  As an occasional “covered entity” may show up with more than 7 CEDs, NCER asks that you call them only if you have serious questions about the source. NCER feels that Free Geek is capable of handling this on our own, as we are one of our largest collectors, and capable of dealing with out-of-system units properly.  (Over time NCER may alter this procedure as the program matures but for now they ask that you call us when or if this happens.)

 On the one hand, there's the whole money thing.  If the donor is not a Covered Entity then the donor must pay for any CRT's over the 7 limit.  For example, when Puppy Rescue, Inc. brings in 10 CRT Monitors we'll accept 7 for free and then charge them for the remaining 3.  BUT, if Joe brings in 10 CRT Monitors (and verifies that he was the end user of the CRT's) then we'd accept them all for free.
-On the other hand, it's important for us to track Covered devices as they travel through the building.  So all Covered devices not from Covered Entities must be tagged and we cannot be reimbursed for them.
+On the other hand, it's important for us to track Uncovered devices as they travel through the building.  All Uncovered Devices must be tagged for accurate accounting all the way through disbursement or recycling.

-Since most of our donors are Covered Entities, there will be significantly fewer mandatory fees. The Receiving Committee decided to tag the Covered devices that we receive from non-covered entities with a little round, colored sticker.  This way we can make sure that we're not being compensated illegally (and therefore, we are preserving the integrity of the program).
+Since most of our donors are Covered Entities, there are significantly fewer mandatory fees. In Receiving items deemed "Uncovered/Non-CED" are labeled with a small sticker with the wording "Uncovered Device". Any customer donating more then 7 devices (systems, laptops, monitors or any combination of them) needs to be asked questions to determine covered or uncovered status. This way we can make sure that we're not being compensated illegally (and therefore, we are preserving the integrity of the program).
 What does this mean?  Here's a clarifying example.
-Puppy Rescue, Inc. brings a truckload of gizmos to Free Geek including 25 CRT Monitors, 25 Systems, and 25 Laptops.  Since Puppy Rescue, Inc. employs more than 10 workers, they are not a Covered Entity.  Therefore, we accept 7 CED's free of charge.  So 7 CRT's are counted as CED's (and left untagged) but the remaining 18 CRT Monitors, 25 Systems and 25 Laptops are tagged with a little sticker.
