| 06-3554 | Importation of Small Lots of Seed Without Phytosanitary Certificates | Rule | We are amending the nursery stock regulations to allow the importation of small lots of seed under an import permit with specific conditions, as an alternative to the current phytosanitary certificate requirement. This change is necessary because several entities that import small lots of seed--individual importers, scientists, horticultural societies, arboreta, and small businesses--have had difficulty obtaining the necessary certificates and have been adversely affected by the phytosanitary certificate requirement. The change makes it feasible for those entities to import small lots of seed and ensures prompt and consistent service for such importers while continuing to protect against the introduction of plant pests into the United States and providing the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service with necessary information about the quality, quantity, and diversity of the imported material. | 2006-04-13 | 2006 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2006/04/13/06-3554/importation-of-small-lots-of-seed-without-phytosanitary-certificates | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2006-04-13/pdf/06-3554.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are amending the nursery stock regulations to allow the importation of small lots of seed under an import permit with specific conditions, as an alternative to the current phytosanitary certificate requirement.
