Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service July 14, 2016 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Importation of Mangoes From India; Technical Amendment
Document Number: 2016-16702
Type: Rule
Date: 2016-07-14
Agency: Department of Agriculture, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
We are amending the regulations regarding the importation of mangoes from India to further clarify our requirements regarding inspection of the mangoes. A previous technical amendment amended the regulations to allow mangoes treated with irradiation in the United States to be inspected by the national plant protection organization (NPPO) of India in India, and subsequently by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) at the port of entry within the United States, rather than being jointly inspected by APHIS and the NPPO in India in all cases. However, in that technical amendment, we neglected to also remove two references to preclearance inspections within India. This document corrects that error.

Based on the finding of no significant impact, we have determined that an environmental impact statement need not be prepared.
