Oriental Fruit Fly; Addition and Removal of Quarantined Areas in California

요약

We are adopting as a final rule, without change, an interim rule that amended the Oriental fruit fly regulations by removing the Santa Ana area of Orange County, CA, from the list of quarantined areas and removing restrictions on the interstate movement of regulated articles from that area. That action was necessary to remove restrictions that were no longer necessary to prevent the spread of the Oriental fruit fly into noninfested areas of the United States. The Santa Ana area of Orange County, CA, was the last remaining area in California quarantined for Oriental fruit fly. Therefore, as a result of that action, there are no longer any areas in the continental United States quarantined for the Oriental fruit fly.
