11 Definitions Refrigerated storages: Includes refrigerated facilities classified as general storages, plus facilities classified as storing only cheese, meat, nuts, or citrus concentrates. refrigerated storages: Refrigerated facilities maintained for storing food for others at specified rates per unit. Private and semiprivate refrigerated storages: Refrigerated facilities maintained by an operator to facilitate his principal function as a producer, processor, or manufacturer of food products. The space is used to store the owner s products, although some space may be used by others at specified rates per unit stored. Working space, chill rooms, and curing rooms in meat storages are not included in the storage statistics. Cooler space: Space that maintains temperatures between 0 and 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Freezer space: Space that maintains temperatures at 0 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. Gross space: area under refrigeration, measured from wall to wall and from floor to ceiling. Usable space: Actual area used for storing commodities. Gross space less an allowance for aisles, posts, coils, blowers, etc. Number of storages: Storages at different locations are counted separately even though operated by the same management.

12 Statistical Methodology Survey procedures: Questionnaires were mailed about the th of September 07, to operators of over,00 public and private cold storage warehouses. Nine hundred and fifty firms met the qualifications that their warehouses were artificially cooled to a temperature of 0 degrees Fahrenheit or lower, normally stored food products for 0 days or more and stored one of the 0 commodities reported in the Monthly Cold Storage Report. The other firms who received questionnaires either did not qualify or the plants had ceased being cold storage facilities during the past two years. The list included specialized storage facilities meeting the 0day requirement, such as fruit houses, dairy manufacturing plants, frozen fruit, fruit juice, and vegetable processors, and poultry and meat packing plants. Wholesalers, jobbers, packer branch houses, and frozen food processors whose entire inventories are turned over more than once a month were excluded. Firms that did not respond were mailed a second request and/or phoned or visited. Estimating procedures: Data for reporting firms were added to estimates for nonreporting firms to obtain State and National totals. Estimates for nonreporting firms were set based on previous reports or administrative data. Revision policy: These data are considered final and will not be revised. Reliability: Usable reports were received from about 7 firms which represent about 7 percent of the total capacity tabulated. The numbers published should be considered minimum figures as there are cold storage firms that are not known to NASS. Special care in identifying individual plants minimizes duplication. Survey data are also subject to nonsampling errors such as omissions and mistakes in reporting and processing the data. While these errors cannot be measured directly, they are minimized by a careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
