| 98-34208 | Fruits; Import Regulations; Exemption of Grape Varieties From the Table Grape Import Regulation | Proposed Rule | This proposed rule would change the table grape import regulation by adding several grape varieties to the list of varieties specifically exempted from the grade, size, quality, and maturity requirements of the grape import regulation. The grape import regulation is based on the requirements implemented under a Federal marketing order for grapes grown in southeastern California. Currently, any variety of vinifera species table grapes, except Emperor, Calmeria, Almeria, and Ribier varieties, are subject to the requirements of the marketing order and the import regulation. The Emperor, Calmeria, Almeria, and Ribier varieties of grapes are exempted from regulations established under the marketing order and therefore the import regulation because they are not produced in the California production area. The grape varieties proposed to be added to the list of exempted varieties are genetically related to and/or possess characteristics similar to the four named varieties, and are not produced in the production area covered under the Federal marketing order. Also, one variety previously not produced in the production area would no longer be exempt because it is currently produced in the area covered by the marketing order. A complete list of exempted varieties would clarify the grape import regulation and make it easier for exporters and importers to make marketing decisions. | 1998-12-28 | 1998 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/1998/12/28/98-34208/fruits-import-regulations-exemption-of-grape-varieties-from-the-table-grape-import-regulation | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-1998-12-28/pdf/98-34208.pdf | Agriculture Department; Agricultural Marketing Service | 12,9 | This proposed rule would change the table grape import regulation by adding several grape varieties to the list of varieties specifically exempted from the grade, size, quality, and maturity requirements of the grape import regulation.
