SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES DATES: Background Under the regulations in ‘‘Subpart— Regulated Articles From Hawaii and the Territories’’ (7 CFR 318.13–1 through 318.13–26, referred to below as the regulations), the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture prohibits or restricts the interstate movement of fruits and vegetables into the continental United States from Hawaii, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands to prevent plant pests and noxious weeds from being introduced into and spread within the continental United States. (The continental United States is defined in § 318.13–2 of the regulations as the 48 contiguous States, Alaska, and the District of Columbia.) Section 318.13–4 contains a performance-based process for approving the interstate movement of commodities that, based on the findings of a pest risk analysis, can be safely moved subject to one or more of the designated phytosanitary measures listed in paragraph (b) of that section. APHIS received a request from the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico to allow the interstate movement of fresh rambutan fruit (Nephelium lappaceum VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:18 Jun 15, 2011 Jkt 223001 35187 L.) from Puerto Rico to the continental United States. We have completed a pest list to identify pests of quarantine significance that could follow the pathway of interstate movement into the continental United States and, based on that pest list, have prepared a risk management analysis to identify phytosanitary measures that could be applied to the commodity to mitigate the pest risk. We have concluded that rambutan can be safely moved from Puerto Rico to the continental United States using one or more of the six designated phytosanitary measures listed in § 318.13–4(b). These measures are: • Inspection and certification by an inspector in Puerto Rico that the rambutan are free of all quarantine pests likely to follow the pathway of interstate movement of the rambutan; • Movement of the rambutan as commercial consignments only; and • Distribution of the rambutan only within a defined area (a prohibition on movement to Hawaii, the Virgin Islands, or Guam) and marking of the boxes or containers in which the rambutan is distributed to indicate those distribution restrictions. Therefore, in accordance with § 318.13–4(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 when requesting copies. After reviewing the comments we receive, we will announce our decision regarding the interstate movement of rambutan from Puerto Rico to the continental United States in a subsequent notice. If the overall conclusions of the analysis and the Administrator’s determination of risk remain unchanged following our consideration of the comments, then we will begin allowing the interstate movement of rambutan from Puerto Rico to the continental United States subject to the requirements specified in the risk management document. Done in Washington, DC, this 10th day of June 2011. Kevin Shea, Acting Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. Authority: 7 U.S.C. 7701–7772, and 7781– 7786; 7 CFR 2.22, 2.80, and 371.3.
