Abstract
This rule realigns the boundaries of seven districts established for independent producer representation on the Prune Marketing Committee (Committee) under Marketing Order No. 993. The Committee is responsible for local administration of the marketing order which regulates the handling of dried prunes grown in California. Due to shifts in the production areas, the current seven production districts for independent producer representation on the Committee are out of balance. The realignment provides for more equitable independent producer representation on the Committee, consistent with current industry demographics.
