INSTRUCTIONS

Each handler is required to submit each quarter to the Prune Marketing Committee (Committee) a signed report of form PMC 12.1 showing his shipments of California prunes from the start of the current crop year through the end of the quarter for which the report is required. Shipments should be derived from shipping documents, such as shipping orders, manifests and bills of lading. In computing your SHIPMENTS for each period, be sure to exclude invoices for sale from a consignment warehouse or distribution center, and to include, in lieu thereof, prunes shipped to consignment locations or distribution centers as determined from shipping documents.

1. DOMESTIC, INCLUDING CANADA & GOVERNMENT -USES --Report the pounds of prunes shipped by you or for your account to the domestic trade for each use listed on this form.

DO NOT INCLUDE in this category: (a) prunes not subject to the Order (refer to 5e below and form PMC 11.1); (b) Inter-Handler Transfers or officially inspected packed prunes moving between handlers (refer to 5 below). The weight of the whole prunes shipped for each use should be reported. For example: "pitting" should be the weight of the prunes shipped to a trade customer for pitting, plus prunes entered into your own pitting equipment.
