Bonnie, the number was 10,000. However, if you look at the numbers that they
report, they really don’t make any sense.
I know that early on in the “Opt Out” period, they had received 600
opt out requests, which they said was minimal. However, it soon became apparent
that very large numbers of people who should have been notified, were not. They
appear to have forgotten about a whole geographic region within the state.
When I hear more, I’ll let you all know.

To add to my original message, they said at the time that they had notified
something like 10,000 farmers -- was that the number? Does anyone remember
the actual number? If 10,000 is the right number, the jump from 1,685 to
8,064 means that nearly half rejected the proposal, which is a lot when you
consider how short the time frame was and how few people usually bother to
reply to mailings of any sort.
