Rule: Importation of Fresh Mango Fruit From Viet Nam Into the Continental
United States [Docket No. APHIS-2016-0026]
|
|
The
Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) is amending the
regulations to allow the importation of fresh mango fruit from Viet Nam into
the continental United States. As a condition of entry, fresh mango fruit
from Viet Nam will be subject to a systems approach that includes orchard or
packinghouse requirements, irradiation treatment, and port of entry
inspection. The fruit will also be required to be imported in commercial
consignments and accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate issued by the
national plant protection organization of Viet Nam with an additional
declaration stating that the consignment was inspected and found free of Macrophoma mangiferae and Xanthomonas campestris pv. mangiferaeindicae. This action will
allow for the importation of fresh mango fruit from Viet Nam while continuing
to provide protection against the introduction of plant pests into the continental
United States.
