most measures of economic performance, including the Gross Domestic Product.
Conducted every 5 years, the Economic Census uses information from businesses like
yours to provide reliable data for your industry and geographic area.
Please complete and return your census form by February 12, 2008. You may use
reasonable estimates if book figures are not readily available.
Title 13, United States Code, requires your response to the Economic Census and
guarantees that your response is confidential and will be used only for statistical purposes.
