Continuation of the Pennsylvania Apple Marketing Program

[32 Pa.B. 2337]

   Under the applicable provisions of the Agricultural Commodities Marketing Act, a review referendum was held from April 1, 2002, to April 15, 2002, to determine if the producers affected by the Pennsylvania Apple Marketing Program (program) desired to continue the program for an additional 5 years. To pass, a majority of eligible producers voting had to vote in favor of the program's continuation. An impartial Teller Committee met on April 25, 2002, to count the ballots. The following results were submitted to me by the Teller Committee: a total of 181 eligible votes were cast with 105 producers voting in favor of and 76 voting against the continuation of the program. Votes favoring continuation of the program by number of producers represented 58% of eligible votes and votes against continuation of the program represented 42% of eligible votes. There were two ineligible ballots due to postmarks dated after the designated voting deadline. Because a majority of the votes were cast in favor of the program, the program shall continue for 5 years, effective immediately.
