Background
Under the regulations in ‘‘Subpart L—
Fruits and Vegetables’’ (7 CFR 319.56–
1 through 319.56–12, referred to below
as the regulations), the Animal and
Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS)
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 or disseminated within
the United States.
Section 319.56–4 contains a
performance-based process for
approving the importation of fruits and
vegetables that, based on the findings of
a pest risk analysis, can be safely
imported subject to one or more of the
five designated phytosanitary measures
listed in paragraph (b) of that section.
APHIS received a request from the
national plant protection organization
(NPPO) of Mexico to allow the
importation of fresh rhizomes of
turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) for
consumption from Mexico into the
United States. As part of our evaluation
of Mexico’s request, we have prepared
a pest risk assessment to identify the
pests of quarantine significance that
could follow the pathway of the
importation of fresh rhizomes of
turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) for
consumption from Mexico into the
United States. Based on the pest risk
assessment, a risk management
document (RMD) was prepared to
identify phytosanitary measures that
could be applied to the fresh rhizomes
of turmeric to mitigate the pest risk.
Therefore, in accordance with
§ 319.56–4(c), we are announcing the
availability of our pest risk assessment
and RMD for public review and
comment. Those documents, as well as
a description of the economic
considerations associated with the
importation of fresh rhizomes of
turmeric from Mexico, may be viewed
on the Regulations.gov website or in our

reading room (see ADDRESSES above for
a link to Regulations.gov and
information on the location and hours of
the reading room). You may request
paper copies of the pest risk assessment
and RMD by calling or writing to the
person listed under FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT. Please refer to the
subject of the analysis you wish to
review when requesting copies.
After reviewing any comments that
we receive, we will announce our
decision regarding the import status of
fresh rhizomes of turmeric from Mexico
in a subsequent notice. If the overall
conclusions of our analysis and the
Administrator’s determination of risk
remain unchanged following our
consideration of the comments, then we
will authorize the importation of fresh
rhizomes of turmeric from Mexico into
the United States subject to the
requirements specified in the RMD.

Done in Washington, DC, this 4th day of
