We propose to amend the fruits and vegetables regulations to list a number of fruits and vegetables from certain parts of the world
as eligible, under specified conditions, for importation into the United States. Some of the fruits and vegetables are already eligible
for importation under permit, but are not specifically listed in the regulations. All of the fruits and vegetables, as a condition of entry,
would be inspected and subject to treatment at the port of first arrival as may be required by an inspector. In addition, some of the fruits and vegetables would be required to meet other special conditions. In one case, we propose to add a systems approach that would provide an alternative to methyl bromide fumigation. These
actions would provide the United States with additional types and sources of fruits and vegetables while continuing to protect against
the introduction of quarantine pests through imported fruits and vegetables.
