| E9-15416 | Movement of Hass Avocados From Areas Where Mexican Fruit Fly or Sapote Fruit Fly Exist | Rule | We are amending the regulations to relieve certain restrictions regarding the movement of Hass variety avocados. Specifically, we are amending our domestic quarantine regulations to provide for the interstate movement, with a certificate, of Hass avocados from areas in the United States quarantined for Mexican fruit fly or sapote fruit fly, provided that the fruit is safeguarded after harvest in accordance with specific measures. We are also amending our foreign quarantine regulations to remove trapping and bait spray treatment requirements related to Anastrepha spp. fruit flies for imported Hass avocados from Michoacan, Mexico. These actions are warranted in light of research demonstrating the limited host status of Hass avocados to various species of fruit flies in the genus Anastrepha, including Mexican fruit fly and sapote fruit fly. By amending both our domestic and foreign quarantine regulations, we are making them consistent with each other and relieving restrictions for Mexican Hass avocado producers. In addition, this action provides an alternative means for Hass avocados to be moved interstate if the avocados originate from a Mexican fruit fly or sapote fruit fly quarantined area in the United States. | 2009-06-30 | 2009 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2009/06/30/E9-15416/movement-of-hass-avocados-from-areas-where-mexican-fruit-fly-or-sapote-fruit-fly-exist | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2009-06-30/pdf/E9-15416.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are amending the regulations to relieve certain restrictions regarding the movement of Hass variety avocados.
