The Delaware State Police regulate scrap metal processors by requiring them to be licensed and to report electronically the receipt of certain articles which may turn out to be stolen so that they can be recovered by law enforcement agencies and returned to their lawful owner. This amendment more closely conforms the scope of the reporting requirement to the statutory definition of a scrap metal processor. See 24 Delaware Code 2301(6). This amendment will subject automotive dismantlers, or junkyards, to additional electronic reporting requirements and amended industry specific procedures. The Division of Motor Vehicles will also be able research the electronic industry submission to track scrapped or salvaged vehicles to potentially issue new title and put them back on the street. The proposed changes to Chapter 23 of Title 24 will now additionally enhance the Prohibited Transactions section further assisting the scrap metal industry by reducing the amount of stolen property thieves attempt to sell.

An Act To Amend Title 24 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Pawnbrokers, Secondhand Dealers And Scrap Metal Processors.
