Alex - I dont know where you found that in the regs but if you could point it out Id appreciate it
The only thing I can find is that the secondary producer "may" obtain the documentation from the primary producer - and in fed reg talk which is defined in another reg - "may" means they can but are not required to and would not be in violation if they didnt
Now if they used the word "shall" or "will" then it becomes a reg requirement - again this is all definied in another reg on how to write regs
