Current through February 27, 2024

1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, each shipment of the quarantined commodities must be accompanied by a certificate of origin signed by an authorized official of the state of origin. The certificate of origin must contain declarations that:

(a) The planting stock was grown in an area not known to be infested with stem and bulb nematode or with white rot fungus;

(b) The crop was inspected during the growing season and was found apparently free from stem and bulb nematode and white rot fungus; and

(c) The seed-garlic was presoaked in hot water with or without formalin at 100 degrees Fahrenheit, plus or minus 2 degrees Fahrenheit, for 30 minutes followed immediately by a 20-minute soaking at 120 degrees Fahrenheit, plus or minus 2 degrees Fahrenheit, in a solution of the same composition, but variations of this treatment may be substituted with prior approval of the Director.

2. If stock for the commercial propagation of garlic or onions is accompanied by a certificate issued under a state or federally supervised program which has been specifically designed to prevent infection of such stock by stem and bulb nematode or white rot fungus, the stock may be brought into Nevada or a control area within this State without meeting the requirements of subsection 1.
