What does the code on a Welch's container mean?

The production code (or manufacture date) appears as a series of numbers and letters. As an example, NE08A10 would translate like this:

NE = Producing plant (in this case, North East, PA)
08 = Year produced; last digit of year (2008)
A   = Month (A = January, B = February, C = March, etc.)
10 = Day of the month (tenth day of the month)

The above code, NE08A10, would indicate the product was made January 10, 2008, at our North East, PA plant.  The code might also include the time of day in military time.
