In an interim rule published in the Federal Register on August 1, 2006, we amended the citrus canker regulations to list the entire State of Florida as a quarantined area for citrus canker and to amend the requirements for the movement of regulated articles from Florida now that the eradication of citrus canker in Florida is no longer being
carried out as an objective. We also amended the regulations to allow
regulated articles that would not otherwise be eligible for interstate movement to be moved to a port for immediate export. In this amendment, we are clarifying that, if citrus canker is found in any grove during the preharvest inspection or afterward, fruit from that grove will be ineligible to move interstate for that entire shipping season.
