Background
The pale cyst nematode (PCN,
Globodera pallida) is a major pest of
potato crops in cool-temperature areas.
Other solanaceous hosts include
tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, tomatillos,
and some weeds. The PCN is thought to
have originated in Peru and is now
widely distributed in many potatogrowing regions of the world. PCN
infestations may be expressed as
patches of poor growth. Affected potato
plants may exhibit yellowing, wilting,
or death of foliage. Even with only
minor symptoms on the foliage, potato
tuber size can be affected. Unmanaged
infestations can cause potato yield loss
ranging from 20 to 70 percent. The
spread of this pest in the United States
could result in a loss of domestic or
foreign markets for U.S. potatoes and
other commodities.
In 7 CFR part 301, the PCN quarantine
regulations (§§ 301.86 through 301.86-9,
referred to below as the regulations) set
out procedures for determining the areas
quarantined for PCN and impose
restrictions on the interstate movement
of regulated articles from quarantined
areas.
Section 301.86-3 of the regulations
sets out the procedures for determining
the areas quarantined for PCN.
Paragraph (a) of § 301.86-3 states that, in
accordance with the criteria listed in
§ 301.86-3(c), the Administrator will
designate as a quarantined area each
field that has been found to be infested
with PCN, each field that has been
found to be associated with an infested
field, and any area that the
Administrator considers necessary to
quarantine because of its inseparability
for quarantine enforcement purposes
from infested or associated fields.
Paragraph (d) provides for the
removal of fields from quarantine. An
infested field will be removed from
quarantine when a protocol approved by
the Administrator as sufficient to
support the removal of infested fields
from quarantine has been completed
and the field has been found to be free
of PCN. An associated field will be
removed from quarantine when the field
has been found to be free of PCN
according to a protocol approved by the
Administrator as sufficient to support
removal of associated fields from
quarantine. Any area other than infested
or associated fields that has been
quarantined by the Administrator
because of its inseparability for
quarantine enforcement purposes from
infested or associated fields will be
removed from quarantine when the

relevant infested or associated fields are
removed from quarantine.
Paragraph (a) of § 301.86-3 further
provides that the Administrator will
publish a description of the quarantined
area on the Plant Protection and
Quarantine (PPQ) Web site, (https://
www.aphis.usda.gov/plant_health/
plant_pest_info/potato/pcn.shtml). The
description of the quarantined area will
include the date the description was last
updated and a description of the
changes that have been made to the
quarantined area. The description of the
quarantined area may also be obtained
by request from any local office of PPQ;
local offices are listed in telephone
directories. Finally, paragraph (a)
establishes that, after a change is made
to the quarantined area, we will publish
a notice in the Federal Register
informing the public that the change has
occurred and describing the change to
the quarantined area.
Therefore, we are publishing this
notice to inform the public of changes
to the PCN quarantined area in the State
of Idaho. The changes are as follows:
∑ On April 26, 2010, we updated the
quarantined area to remove 149.56
acres from Bingham County and 59.48
acres from Bonneville County.
This acreage consisted of associated
fields that were found to be free of PCN
according to a survey protocol approved
by the Administrator in accordance with
§ 301.86-3 as sufficient to support
removal of associated fields from
quarantine.
The current map of the quarantined
area can be viewed on the PPQ Web site
at (https://www.aphis.usda.gov/plant_
health/plant_pest_info/potato/
pcn.shtml).

meeting will convene at 10:30 a.m. and
adjourn at approximately 4 p.m. The
meeting will be held at the Liliha Public
Library, 1515 Liliha Street, Honolulu,

Committee to learn about possible
