The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue has completed a Pennsylvania sales tax audit of our company. They have assessed our company with sales tax and penalty on all flooring sold since January 1, 1985. They have also requested and received the names and addresses of all customers who have purchased grating since January 1, 1985, who have farm use tax exempt certificates on file with our company. These customers will be receiving a sales tax and penalty assessment. The Pennsylvania Department of Revenue will be doing a Pennsylvania sales tax audit on all Pennsylvania companies marketing pig flooring in the near future to assess sales tax on pig grating sold since January 1,1982. Our company and other industry representatives feel this is an unfair ruling and will create an additional production cost for the pig industry. We feel therefore, this tax assessment of pig grating should hie appealed on a statewide industry basis. Our company has until June 12,1985 to file a notice of intent to appeal with appeals board. Our company is asking the following organizations to assist and fund this appeal. PA Farmers Association Penn Ag Industries PA Pork Producers Council A reply from these organizations in the immediate future is requested. A decision as an industry needs to be made as soon as possible. Without assistance from the industry, our company does not wish to fund the appeal and would not appeal the ruling. Our company is asking you as a producer or allied industry person to contact these organizations in the next ten days requesting them to support this appeal effort for the Pennsylvania pig industry.
