| E9-8103 | Citrus Canker; Interstate Movement of Regulated Nursery Stock From Quarantined Areas | Rule | We are adopting as a final rule, with one change, an interim rule that amended the citrus canker regulations to explicitly prohibit, with limited exceptions, the interstate movement of regulated nursery stock from a quarantined area. The interim rule provided two exceptions to this prohibition, one that allowed nursery stock to be moved interstate for immediate export under certain conditions and another that allowed calamondin and kumquat plants to be moved interstate in accordance with a protocol designed to ensure their freedom from citrus canker. Our decision to provide for the interstate movement of calamondin and kumquat plants was based on their apparent resistance to citrus canker infection. However, since the publication of the interim rule, we have confirmed that 47 calamondin plants growing in an area quarantined for citrus canker were infected with the disease. Therefore, this final rule amends the protocol to exclude calamondin plants. The interim rule was necessary to clarify our regulations and to address the risk associated with the interstate movement of regulated nursery stock from areas quarantined for citrus canker. | 2009-04-09 | 2009 | 4 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2009/04/09/E9-8103/citrus-canker-interstate-movement-of-regulated-nursery-stock-from-quarantined-areas | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2009-04-09/pdf/E9-8103.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are adopting as a final rule, with one change, an interim rule that amended the citrus canker regulations to explicitly prohibit, with limited exceptions, the interstate movement of regulated nursery stock from a quarantined area.
