Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service January 25, 2022 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

We are advising the public of our decision to revise the requirements relative to the importation into the United States of plums from Chile. Based on the findings of a commodity import evaluation document, which we made available to the public for review and comment through a previous notice, we have determined that, in addition to the existing option of irradiation, plums from Chile may safely be imported under a systems approach for mitigation of the risk posed by European grapevine moth, with an additional option for fumigation with methyl bromide.
