We are collecting information on costs and returns and need your help to make the information as accurate as possible. Authority for collection of
information on the Costs and Returns Report is Title 7, Section 2204 of the U.S. Code. Under Title 7 of the U.S. Code and CIPSEA (Public Law 107347), facts about your operation are kept confidential and used only for statistical purposes. Response is voluntary. You may skip any question(s) you
prefer not to answer.
According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of
information unless it displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number for this information collection is 0535-0218. The time required
to complete this information collection is estimated to average 45 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing
data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.
