| 2016-26033 | Importation of Hass Avocados From Colombia | Proposed Rule | We are proposing to amend the fruits and vegetables regulations to allow the importation of Hass avocados from Colombia into the continental United States. As a condition of entry, Hass avocados from Colombia 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; pest-free places of production; grove sanitation, monitoring, and pest control practices; lot identification; and inspection for quarantine pests by the Colombian national plant protection organization. Additionally, avocados from Colombia would be required to be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate with an additional declaration stating that the avocados have been produced in accordance with the proposed requirements. This action would allow for the importation of Hass avocados from Colombia into the continental United States while continuing to provide protection against the introduction of plant pests. | 2016-10-27 | 2016 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/10/27/2016-26033/importation-of-hass-avocados-from-colombia | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-10-27/pdf/2016-26033.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 Hass avocados from Colombia into the continental United States.
