Final Rule: Decision To Authorize the Importation of Fresh Hass Avocado From Guatemala Into the United States [Docket No. APHIS-2024-0014]

We are advising the public of our decision to authorize the importation of fresh Hass avocado (Persea americana var. Hass) fruit from Guatemala into the United States. Based on the findings of a pest risk analysis, which we made available to the public for review and comment, we have determined that the application of one or more designated phytosanitary measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks of introducing or disseminating plant pests or noxious weeds via the importation of fresh Hass avocado fruit from Guatemala.
