SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    A referendum order published in the Federal Register on March 3, 
2003, (68 FR 9944) directed that a continuance referendum be conducted 
among eligible growers and processors of tart cherries in the States of 
Michigan, New York, Pennsylvania, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and 
Wisconsin to determine whether they favor continuance of the marketing 
order regulating the handling of tart cherries grown in the production 
area. The referendum order was issued under Marketing Order No. 930, as 
amended (7 CFR Part 930). The order is effective under the Agricultural 
Marketing Agreement Act of 1937, as amended (7 U.S.C. 601-674).

be postmarked to be considered valid in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION 
section are incorrect.

publication of the referendum order (Docket No. FV03-930-1) is 
corrected as follows:
    1. On page 9944, column 2, line 13, the dates ``March 10 through 
March 21, 2003'' is corrected to read ``March 17 through 28, 2003.''
