the last thing i want to say is this: I understand the goal of this law and others like it, and the last thing i want is some thief tearing up miles of vital infrastructure so he can strip it and then profit from his crimes out in the open with a now unidentifiable spool of basically cash. But these laws were rushed into use by a desperate group of legislators, law enforcement, and utilities. Vague language in laws lead to selective application and creative interpretations that aren't fair. We need balanced and fair regulations that do the best we can to make metal theft unattractive to potential thieves and also allow people to buy and sell a basic commodity like copper without all this crazy bs.
maybe there's something here that might help you; http://www.scrapmetalforum.com/scrap...-sourcing.html
