- **CA - CAA participant reports**: status_unknown - Confirm the current CAA account record and preserve the response; do not infer filing, billing, or receipt status from a planning table.
- **CA - CalRecycle filing record**: status_unknown - Verify separately from producer-to-PRO actions and retain the controlling state source.
