The Mexican NPPO must also provide APHIS with information regarding the circumstances of the infestation and the pest risk mitigation measures taken. In accordance with the operational workplan, depending upon the nature of the pest detection, affected orchards may lose their export certification, and avocado exports from that orchard may be suspended until APHIS and the Mexican NPPO agree that the pest eradication measures taken have been effective. * * * * * PO 00000 Frm 00008 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 Done in Washington, DC, this 23rd day of May 2016.
