| 2018-05424 | Restructuring of Regulations on the Importation of Plants for Planting | Rule | We are restructuring the regulations governing the importation of plants for planting. In the new structure, restrictions on the importation of specific types of plants for planting will no longer be found in the regulations, but instead will be found in the Plants for Planting Manual. We will make changes to the restrictions in the manual after taking public comment through notices published in the Federal Register. As part of this restructuring, we are grouping together restrictions in the plants for planting regulations that apply to the importation of most or all plants for planting, and we are adding general requirements for the development of integrated pest risk management measures that we may use to mitigate the risk associated with the importation of a specific type of plants for planting. We are also amending our foreign quarantine regulations to remove various provisions regarding the importation of specific types of plants for planting that are not currently subject to the general plants for planting regulations; these provisions will also be found in the Plants for Planting Manual. This action does not make any major changes to the restrictions that currently apply to the importation of plants for planting. These changes will make restrictions on the importation of specific types of plants for planting easier for readers to find and less cumbersome for us to change. | 2018-03-19 | 2018 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/03/19/2018-05424/restructuring-of-regulations-on-the-importation-of-plants-for-planting | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2018-03-19/pdf/2018-05424.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are restructuring the regulations governing the importation of plants for planting.
