Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 130 / Thursday, July 8, 2010 / Notices
Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of
the U.S. Department of Agriculture
prohibits or restricts the importation of
fruits and vegetables into the United
States from certain parts of the world to
prevent plant pests from being
introduced into and spread within the
United States.
Section 319.56-4 contains a
performance-based process for
approving the importation of
commodities that, based on the findings
of a pest risk analysis, can be safely
imported subject to one or more of the
designated phytosanitary measures
listed in paragraph (b) of that section.
These measures are:
∑ The fruits or vegetables are subject
to inspection upon arrival in the United
States and comply with all applicable
provisions of § 319.56-3;
∑ The fruits or vegetables are
imported from a pest-free area in the
country of origin that meets the
requirements of § 319.56-5 for freedom
from that pest and are accompanied by
a phytosanitary certificate stating that
the fruits or vegetables originated in a
pest-free area in the country of origin;
∑ The fruits or vegetables are treated
in accordance with 7 CFR part 305;
∑ The fruits or vegetables are
inspected in the country of origin by an
inspector or an official of the national
plant protection organization of the
exporting country, and have been found
free of one or more specific quarantine
pests identified by the risk analysis as
likely to follow the import pathway;
and/or
∑ The fruits or vegetables are a
commercial consignment.
APHIS received a request from the
Government of the United Kingdom to
allow the importation of fresh leaves of
perennial wall rocket from the United
Kingdom into the United States. We
have completed a pest risk assessment
to identify pests of quarantine
significance that could follow the
pathway of importation into the
continental United States and, based on
that pest risk assessment, have prepared
a risk management document to identify
phytosanitary measures that could be
applied to the commodity to mitigate
the pest risk. We have concluded that
perennial wall rocket leaves can be
safely imported into the continental
United States from the United Kingdom
using one or more of the five designated
phytosanitary measures listed in
§ 319.56-4(b). Therefore, in accordance
with § 319.56-4(c), we are announcing
the availability of our pest risk analysis
for public review and comment. The
pest risk analysis may be viewed on the
Regulations.gov Web site or in our
reading room (see ADDRESSES above for

instructions for accessing
Regulations.gov and information on the
location and hours of the reading room).
You may request paper copies of the
pest risk analysis by calling or writing
to the person listed under FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT. Please refer to the
subject of the pest risk analysis that you
wish to review when requesting copies.
After reviewing the comments we
receive, we will announce our decision
regarding the import status of wall
rocket leaves from the United Kingdom
in a subsequent notice. If the overall
conclusions of the analyses and the
Administrator’s determination of risk
remain unchanged following our
consideration of the comments, then we
will begin issuing permits for
importation of fresh leaves of perennial
wall rocket from the United Kingdom
into the continental United States
subject to the requirements specified in
the risk management analyses.
