Abstract: Committee forms developed to effectively carry out a handler withhold volume regulation for the 2017-18 season. The purpose of these forms will be to ensure compliance with the recommended handler withhold.

Emergency Justfication: The use of normal clearance procedures would delay the cranberry industry's ability to manage its inventories in a way that complies with the industry-supported handler withholding program.
