Answer:

Fewer methamphetamine labs are being operated and/or discovered in the United States.

Step-by-step explanation:

Although it is difficult to establish a definite conclusion without more information, from what we do know there are few seizures of methamphetamine labs. This could be due to a reduced presence of attempted seizures, to an overall decrease in the number of labs, to more efficient means of hiding the labs from the authorities or to the increased importation of finished products from other countries.
