Notice: Import Requirements for the Importation of Fresh Blueberries From Chile Into the United States [Docket No. APHIS-2019-0049]
Description
APHIS is advising the public of its decision to revise the import requirements for the importation of fresh blueberries from Chile into the United States by removing the methyl bromide fumigation requirements for blueberries from Regions VIII and XVI of Chile. Based on the findings of a commodity import evaluation, which was made available to the public for review and comment through a previous notice, APHIS has determined that the application of the designated phytosanitary measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks of introducing or disseminating plant pests via the importation of blueberries from Chile. Imports under the revised requirements may be authorized beginning 8 October 2020. (Federal Register Vol. 85, No. 196, Thursday, 8 October 2020, pp.63500-63502)
