| 2013-02017 | Importation of Avocados From Continental Spain | Proposed Rule | We are proposing to amend the fruits and vegetables regulations to allow the importation of avocados from continental Spain (excluding the Balaeric Islands and Canary Islands) into the United States. As a condition of entry, avocados from Spain would have to be produced in accordance with a systems approach that would include requirements for importation in commercial consignments; registration and monitoring of places of production and packinghouses; grove sanitation; and inspection for quarantine pests by the national plant protection organization of Spain. Consignments of avocados other than the Hass variety would also have to be treated for the Mediterranean fruit fly either prior to moving to the United States or upon arrival prior to release. Consignments would also be required to be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate with an additional declaration stating that the avocados were grown and inspected and found to be free of pests in accordance with the proposed requirements. This action would allow for the importation of avocados from Spain into the United States while continuing to provide protection against the introduction of quarantine pests. | 2013-01-30 | 2013 | 1 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2013/01/30/2013-02017/importation-of-avocados-from-continental-spain | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2013-01-30/pdf/2013-02017.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are proposing to amend the fruits and vegetables regulations to allow the importation of avocados from continental Spain (excluding the Balaeric Islands and Canary Islands) into the United States.
