Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service August 24, 2007 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In a final rule published in the Federal Register on July 18, 2007, we revised and reorganized the regulations pertaining to the importation of fruits and vegetables. As explained in the preamble, the regulatory text included changes made to the fruits and vegetables regulations by several other final rules that were published just prior to July 18. This technical amendment is necessary to correct an error in the way we set out the requirements established in a final rule published on June 21, 2007, for importing certain fruit from Thailand. This technical amendment also clarifies requirements for importing pineapple from Thailand into Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
