st: ci's while adjusting for response rate

Hi,
I am away from my office and have no access to texts so am asking for help here
A client has some survey results based on simple random sampling; unfortunately, the response rate was not as good as hoped for; at any rate, they are requesting CI's for some proportions; I recall that Cochran's book (Cochran, WG (1977?), _Sampling Techniques, 3rd edition_, Wiley) discusses an adjustment to CI for non-response rate; if anyone could supply this, and/or thoughts on the use of this adjustment, I would greatly appreciate it
Rich
