Importation of Fruits and Vegetables

Краткое содержание

We are allowing, under certain conditions, the cold treatment of imported fruits upon arrival at the port of Wilmington, NC. We have determined that in the Wilmington, NC, area, there are climatic and biological barriers that are adequate to prevent the introduction of certain plant pests into the United States in the event they escape from shipments of fruit before undergoing cold treatment. Also, we are deleting the listings of cold treatments in the regulations and replacing them with a reference to the cold treatments in the Plant Protection and Quarantine Treatment Manual, which is incorporated by reference.
