What is the state law pertaining to copper or copper containing items?

In August 2012, the State of Louisiana enacted a law requiring scrap yards to hold all payment for copper or copper containing items for five (5) business days at which time the payment is issued by check.

The check can either be picked up at the cashier’s window during regular business hours or mailed to the address on the customers ID.

We cannot mail the check to any other address, only the one on the customers current ID.

We cannot purchase burnt copper wire.
