Referendum on Continuation of the Pennsylvania Peach and Nectarine Research Program

[44 Pa.B. 2760]
[Saturday, May 10, 2014]

 Under the applicable provisions of 3 Pa.C.S. Chapter 45 (relating to Agricultural Commodities Marketing Act), a review referendum was held from March 17, 2014, to March 31, 2014, to determine if the producers affected by the Pennsylvania Peach and Nectarine Research 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 10, 2014, to count the ballots. The following results were submitted by the Teller Committee: a total of 41 eligible votes were cast with 37 producers voting in favor of and 4 voting against the continuation of the program. An additional eight ballots were invalid because they did not meet the eligibility requirements. Votes favoring continuation of the program by number of producers represented 90% of eligible votes and votes against continuation of the program represented 10% of eligible votes. Because a majority of the votes were cast in favor of the program, the program shall continue for 5 years, effective immediately.

Secretary
