## Abstract

This document contains the determination with respect to the referendum on the merger of Sanford and Carthage-Aberdeen, North Carolina, to become the consolidated market of Sanford-Carthage- Aberdeen. A mail referendum was conducted during the period of April 15-19, 1996, among tobacco growers who sold tobacco on these markets in 1995 to determine producer approval/disapproval of the designation of these markets as one consolidated market. Growers approved the merger. Therefore, for the 1996 and succeeding flue-cured marketing seasons, the Sanford and Carthage-Aberdeen, North Carolina, tobacco markets shall be designated as and called Sanford-Carthage-Aberdeen. The regulations are amended to reflect this new designated market.
