Abstract:
This is a renewal request of a long running data collection series. The target population has decreased slightly because plants either closed or were merged with other plants and are now reporting as combined units. The estimated average number of minutes it takes to complete a questionnaire has remained the same as three years ago. One extra data collection period was added for the first of March to allow for late ginnings.
