Please accept our apologies for not submitting the waste sample that was required. In the past our
fertilizer rep. has been the one to send in the sample and he retired in 2017 and we just failed to get the
sample in.
We have sent the sample for 2018 in as required and will be diligent to send in all samples in the future
as required.
Thank you,
Larry D. Galliher
