A container manufacturer must determine the recycled content of an individual rigid plastic container as being the same as the calculated recycled content for all the same type of rigid plastic containers manufactured during the same time period, within a one-year period, as determined by the container manufacturer, with the same input ratio of recycled material to total plastic;
