  6. Processor Issues • Acceptable Materials and Contamination • NO PLASTIC BAGS! • Standards for bags is goal of OGF project • Processor sets rules • Send message back through supply chain • This causes that “personal” issue at the beginning of the loop • Hassle factor • Continuous training and re-training
