did not.

Week Letter A through E
The week letter typically ranges from A to D and an occasional week letter
E has been found. The letter "A" is the first week, the letter "B" is
the second week, etc. However, there is not a direct correlation between
a week letter and specific days or a physical week of any given month
and each plant seemed to have their own standard operating procedures
explaining why some plants for a given month may have the letter "E" for
a fifth week when other plants do not for that month. |
