SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Upon investigation, the Administrator determined that increasing imports of clementines did not contribute importantly to the decline in domestic producer prices of navel oranges during the November 2002-May 2003 marketing year. The leading and prime factor contributing to the price decline according to an investigation conducted for the Administrator was increased domestic production.
