Consider using the RR date format. The YY format assumes your date is in the current century. The RR format allows you to specify a different century. The breakpoint is the year 50.

EFFECTIVE_DATE DATE "MM/DD/YYYY",
END_DATE DATE "MM/DD/YYYY" here is data sample:
"1","ASI","000","ASI",1/1/83 , and in the table is 1/1/2083
