Defined Benefit Obligations and Funded Status [Table Text Block]
The following table, which includes only company-sponsored defined benefit plans, reconciles the beginning and ending balances of our projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets. We recognize the underfunded status of our defined benefit pension plans on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We recognize changes in funded status in the year changes occur through other comprehensive income (loss).

_______________________________________ 

(a)
Prior to the remeasurement of our qualified defined benefit pension plan on November 1, 2016, the discount rate and expected rate of return on plan assets were 4.05% and 5.10%. The discount rate and expected rate of return on plan assets after the November 1, 2016 remeasurement were 3.45% and 5.10%, respectively.

(b)
Prior to the remeasurement of our qualified defined benefit pension plan on May 15, 2015, the discount rate and expected rate of return on plan assets were 3.75% and 6.15%. The discount rate and expected rate of return on plan assets after the May 15, 2015 remeasurement were 3.90% and 5.85%, respectively.

(c)
Pension benefits for all salaried employees are frozen, resulting in an assumption for the rate of compensation increase of zero. In addition to the salaried benefits being frozen, there are currently no scheduled increases in pension benefit rates applicable to past service covering hourly employees who continue to accrue benefits.

_______________________________________ 

(a)
Equity and fixed-income securities represent common collective trusts managed and valued by Russell Trust Company, the administrator of the funds. While the underlying assets are actively traded on an exchange, the funds are not. The investments in equity and fixed-income securities are considered to have a readily determinable fair value because the fair value per share (unit) is determined and published and is the basis for current transactions. We have the ability to redeem these equity and fixed-income securities with a one-day notice.

(b)
Invested in the Russell Large Cap U.S. Equity Fund at December 31, 2016 and 2015. The fund seeks returns that exceed the Russell 1000 Index by investing in large-capitalization stocks of the U.S. stock market. In addition, at December 31, 2016 and 2015, our investments in this category included the Russell 1000 Index Fund, which seeks to track the investment results of an index composed of large- and mid-capitalization stocks of the U.S. stock market.

(c)
Invested in the Russell Equity II Fund. The fund seeks returns that exceed the Russell 2500 Index by investing in the small- and mid-capitalization stocks of the U.S. stock market.

(d)
Invested in the Russell International Fund with Active Currency at December 31, 2016 and 2015, which benchmarks against the Russell Developed ex-U.S. Large Cap Index Net and seeks favorable total returns and additional diversification through investment in non-U.S. equity securities and active currency management. The fund participates primarily in the stock markets of Europe and the Pacific Rim and seeks to opportunistically add value through active investment in foreign currencies. In addition, at December 31, 2016 and 2015, our investments in this category included the Russell Emerging Market Fund, which benchmarks against the Russell Emerging Markets Index and is designed to maintain a broadly diversified exposure to emerging market countries.

(e)
Invested in the Russell Multi-Manager Bond Fund at December 31, 2016 and 2015. The fund seeks to outperform the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index over a full market cycle. The fund is designed to provide current income and, as a secondary objective, capital appreciation through a variety of diversified strategies, including sector rotation, modest interest rate timing, security selection, and tactical use of high-yield and emerging market bonds. In addition, at December 31, 2016 and 2015, our investments in this category included the Russell Long Duration Fixed Income Fund, which is designed to provide maximum total return through diversified strategies including sector rotation, modest interest rate timing, security selection, and tactical use of high-yield, emerging market bonds and other non-index securities.

(f)
Invested in the AQR Delta Offshore Fund. The fund seeks to produce high risk-adjusted returns while targeting a low long-term average correlation to traditional markets. The fund invests internationally in a broad range of instruments, including, but not limited to, equities, currencies, convertible securities, futures, forwards, options, swaps, and other derivative products. The fair value of the hedge fund is estimated using the net asset value (NAV) of the investment as a practical expedient for fair value. We have the ability to redeem these investments at NAV within the near term. During 2016, we adopted ASU 2015-07, which removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the NAV per share practical expedient. As such, the AQR Delta Offshore Fund has not been classified within the fair value hierarchy tables as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

(g)
Invested in the Russell Real Estate Equity Fund. The fund seeks to obtain favorable total return through income and growth, and to outperform the NCREIF Open-End Diversified Core Equity Fund Index - Equal Weight. Real estate investments include those in limited partnerships, limited liability companies, and real estate investment trusts consisting of private real estate investments including office, apartment, retail, industrial, and other commercial properties. The fair value of the real estate fund is estimated using NAV of the investment as a practical expedient for fair value. Amounts realized on the sale of these investments may differ from the calculated values. We have the ability to redeem the real estate investments with a 110-calendar-day written notice prior to a quarterly trade date. During 2016, we adopted ASU 2015-07, which removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments for which fair value is measured using the NAV per share practical expedient. As such, the Russell Real Estate Equity Fund has not been classified within the fair value hierarchy tables as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.
