Phytosanitary Treatments; Location of Treatment Schedules and
Other Requirements
AGENCY: Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, USDA.
ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This final rule amends the plant health regulations by adding
to 7 CFR part 305 treatment schedules and related requirements that now
appear in the Plant Protection and Quarantine Treatment Manual and by
removing the Plant Protection and Quarantine Treatment Manual from the
list of material that is incorporated by reference into the
regulations. We are taking this action to simplify the process for
amending treatment schedules and related requirements and to more
clearly distinguish between treatment-related requirements and
nonbinding administrative information, which the Plant Protection and
Quarantine Treatment Manual also contains.
EFFECTIVE DATE: June 7, 2005.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Meredith C. Jones, Regulatory
Coordination Specialist, PPQ, APHIS, 4700 River Road Unit 141,
Riverdale, MD 20737-1236; (301) 734-7467.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The regulations in 7 CFR parts 300 to 399 (referred to below as the
regulations) are intended, among other things, to prevent the
introduction or spread of plant pests and noxious weeds into or within
the United States. Under the regulations, certain plants, fruits,
vegetables, and other articles must be treated before they may be moved
into the United States or interstate. Most of the phytosanitary
treatments authorized by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service
(APHIS) are contained in the Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ)
Treatment Manual. Among other things, the PPQ Treatment Manual contains
approximately 400 treatment schedules, detailed instructions for
administering the treatments, and requirements for certification of
facilities that administer the treatments.
Prior to this rule, the PPQ Treatment Manual was incorporated by
reference into the regulations at 7 CFR 300.1. In this document, we are
amending 7 CFR part 300, ``Incorporation by Reference,'' to remove the
PPQ Treatment Manual from the list of materials incorporated.
We are adding the portions of the PPQ Treatment Manual that
prescribe the treatment schedules, instructions for administering the
treatments, and requirements for certification of facilities that
administer the treatments to 7 CFR part 305, ``Phytosanitary
Treatments.'' The purpose of part 305 is to provide treatment schedules
and other requirements related to approved treatments; it does not
indicate whether treatment is required for a particular article to be
imported or moved interstate. Whether treatment is required for a
commodity will continue to be indicated in the regulations in 7 CFR
part 301, the domestic quarantine notices; part 318, the Hawaiian and
territorial quarantine notices; part 319, the foreign quarantine
notices; on a permit; or by an inspector.
One of the reasons that we are adding the treatment schedules and
other requirements to part 305 is to distinguish the treatment
schedules and other treatment-related requirements from administrative
information in the PPQ Treatment Manual that has no regulatory purpose.
In addition to the treatment provisions, the PPQ Treatment Manual
contains useful information such as operational procedures for port
inspectors, conversion tables, instructions for using treatment and
safety equipment, and a reference guide to commercial suppliers of
treatment and safety equipment. It also contains copies of U.S. Coast
Guard regulations related to shipboard fumigation, as well as other
technical information. We believe that placing the treatment schedules
and other requirements related to treatments in part 305 will clearly
distinguish those requirements that APHIS intends to enforce from
other, nonbinding information.
Another reason for placing the treatment schedules and other
requirements in part 305 is to simplify and improve the efficiency of
our rulemaking process for rules involving phytosanitary treatments.
Materials that have been incorporated by reference into the CFR have
the same force and effect as the regulations themselves, without taking
up what may be a large number of pages in the CFR. The Office of the
Federal Register must approve the incorporation by reference in
accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. If that material is
later revised, and the agency wishes to have the revision incorporated
by reference, the revision must also be approved by the Office of the
Federal Register for incorporation by reference. While incorporation by
reference can save time and space in the CFR by allowing an agency to
refer to an already published document rather than duplicating that
material in the CFR, the process is inefficient when the document that
is incorporated by reference is frequently updated, as occurs with the
PPQ Treatment Manual.
For example, on October 1, 2002, we published a proposed rule in
the Federal Register to amend 7 CFR part 319 allow the importation of
various fruits and vegetables into the United States under specified
conditions (Docket No. 02-026-1, 67 FR 61547-61564). In some cases, the
specified conditions included treatments, which needed to be added to
the PPQ Treatment Manual. Therefore, before the final rule could be
published, the changes to the PPQ Treatment Manual had to be reviewed
and approved by the Office of the Federal Register, and the final rule,
in addition to amending part 319, also amended part 300 to show that
revisions to the PPQ Treatment Manual had been approved for
incorporation by reference (Docket No. 02-026-4, 68 FR 37904-37923,
published and effective on June 25, 2003). Including the treatment
provisions directly in the regulations rather than incorporating them
by reference will eliminate the separate approval process required for
material incorporated by reference and could make new and amended
treatment provisions available to the public sooner.
In conjunction with adding treatment schedules and other
requirements to part 305, we are amending the regulations in parts 301,
318, and 319 by removing references to the PPQ Treatment Manual and
adding references to part 305. Except as discussed below, we have not
moved treatment schedules that are already in the CFR in parts 301,
318, and 319 to part 305. We intend to move those treatment schedules
to part 305 in future rulemakings.
Treatment Schedules Moved to Part 305 From Other Parts
Sections 318.13-4a and 318.58-4a of part 318 and Sec. 319.56-2c of
part 319 authorize the use of quick freeze treatment for certain fruits
and vegetables. We have moved the provisions of these sections that
pertain directly to treatment to part 305. Specifically, we have
included in Sec. 305.1 a definition of the term quick freeze that is
derived from paragraph (a) of those sections. This definition reads:
``A commercially acceptable method of
[[Page 33265]]
quick freezing at subzero temperatures with subsequent storage and
transportation at not higher than 20 [deg]F. Methods that accomplish
this are known as quick freezing, sharp freezing, cold pack, or frozen
pack, but may be any equivalent commercially acceptable freezing
method.'' We have also moved to part 305 provisions from those sections
regarding inspection of the fruits and vegetables upon arrival. These
provisions state that the fruits or vegetables may not be removed from
the vessel or vehicle transporting them until an inspector has
determined that they are in a satisfactory frozen state upon arrival
(i.e., at 20 [deg]F or below). They further state that if the
temperature of the fruits or vegetables in any part of a shipment is
found to be above 20 [deg]F at the time of inspection upon arrival, the
entire shipment must remain on board the vessel or vehicle under such
safeguards as may be prescribed by the inspector until the temperature
of the shipment is below 20 [deg]F, or the shipment is transported
outside the United States or its territorial waters, or is otherwise
disposed of to the satisfaction of the inspector.
Since the definition of quick freeze and the requirements for
maintaining this frozen state have been moved from Sec. Sec. 318.13-
4a, 318.58-4a, and 319.56-2c to part 305, we have amended all three
sections to state that quick freezing is authorized in accordance with
part 305. Because the Agency's liability for treatment is discussed in
Sec. 305.2, we have removed the paragraphs from each section that
pertain to treatment liability. In addition, we have made minor,
nonsubstantive changes to those sections, such as changing ``Deputy
Administrator'' to ``Administrator'' and redesignating paragraphs, and
replacing a reference to the Caroline Islands with references to Palau
and the Federated States of Micronesia.
Section 319.75-4 of part 319 contained treatment schedules for
khapra beetle. These schedules had typographical errors and
inconsistencies with the treatment schedules for khapra beetle in the
PPQ Treatment Manual. For example, a treatment schedule at Sec.
319.74(a)(3)(iii) indicated that methyl bromide could be applied at
temperatures below 40 [deg]F--a temperature range that is not
authorized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and that
would not effectively neutralize the pest. The correct schedules from
the PPQ Treatment Manual are now included in part 305, and we have
removed the treatment schedules from Sec. 319.75-4 and added a
reference to part 305. This eliminates duplication of the treatment
schedules and the errors contained in Sec. 319.75-4.
Duplication of Some Treatment Schedules
In a few cases, we are adding treatment schedules now located in
parts 301 and 318 to part 305, without, at this time, removing the
treatment schedules from parts 301 and 318. In these cases, the fruits
and vegetables may be moved interstate from areas within the United
States that are under Federal quarantine if they are treated either
according to treatment schedules found in the PPQ Treatment Manual or
according to different treatment schedules found in parts 301 and 318.
To ensure that persons referring to part 305 find all approved
treatments for these fruits and vegetables will be able to find all
applicable treatment schedules in one place in the CFR, we have
duplicated in part 305 the treatment schedules for these fruits and
vegetables that had only been found in parts 301 and 318. We are
leaving the treatment schedules in parts 301 and 318 temporarily to
ensure that readers know they are still valid. The format of these
treatment schedules in part 305 has, in some cases, been altered to be
consistent with the other schedules we are adding to part 305.
We are not duplicating in part 305 any of the treatment schedules
found in part 319. We intend to move all the treatment schedules in
part 319 to part 305 in a separate rulemaking.
Removal of Some Treatment Schedules From the CFR
In Sec. 319.40-7 of part 319, paragraph (f) set out requirements
for fumigation with methyl bromide of logs, lumber, and other
unmanufactured wood products. Paragraph (f) referred to specific
treatment schedules in the PPQ Treatment Manual and set out other
schedules that could be used in lieu of the PPQ Treatment Manual
schedules. In lieu of treatment schedule T-404 in the PPQ Treatment
Manual, paragraphs (f)(1)(ii), (f)(2), and (f)(3)(ii) provided for
fumigation to be conducted with an initial methyl bromide concentration
of at least 120 grams per cubic meter with exposure and concentration
levels adequate to provide a concentration-time product of at least
1920 gram-hours calculated on the initial methyl bromide concentration.
However, this standard is impossible to achieve given normal decreases
in fumigant concentration and is therefore never used. We have,
therefore, removed this alternative schedule from Sec. 319.40-
7(f)(1)(ii), (f)(2), and (f)(3)(ii). The alternative treatment
schedules in Sec. 319.40-7(f)(1)(i) and (f)(3)(i) remain. We have
replaced references to the PPQ Treatment Manual with references to part
305.
Correction of Some Treatment Schedules
We have also corrected errors contained in treatment schedules in
the PPQ Treatment Manual. Specifically, in a treatment for corn seed
(treatment schedule T510-2), the temperature for steam is shown as 40
[deg]F in the PPQ Treatment Manual. The correct temperature of at least
240 [deg]F is now given in part 305. A methyl bromide treatment
schedule for khapra beetle (T301-b-1-2) incorrectly stated that the
treatment is to be conducted at normal atmospheric pressure. We have
corrected that treatment schedule in part 305 to specify that the
treatment is to be conducted in vacuum fumigation chambers. A treatment
for citrus seeds from countries where citrus canker exists (T511-1)
specified a 0.525 percent concentration of sodium hypochlorite for a
chemical dip treatment, while the regulations at Sec. 319.37-6(e)
specified a concentration of 200 parts per million. The regulations are
correct, and part 305 contains the corrected treatment schedule. Both
the regulations at Sec. 319.56-2ii(b) and the PPQ Treatment Manual
stated that a vapor heat treatment for mangoes from the Philippines
(T106-d- 1) was approved for all Bactrocera spp. fruit flies; in fact,
it is only approved for Bactrocera occipitalis and B. philippinensis.
Part 305 contains the corrected treatment schedule. Finally, in a cold
treatment schedule for pecans and hickory nuts (T107-g), the PPQ
Treatment Manual lists the temperature range within which the treatment
is to be conducted as 32 [deg]F or below; the correct temperature range
is 0 [deg]F or below, and part 305 contains the corrected treatment
schedule.
Except to correct the errors just discussed, part 305 retains the
descriptions of treated articles, treatment schedules, and instructions
for administering treatments that had been contained in the PPQ
Treatment Manual. In some cases, this has meant retaining schedules and
administration instructions that appear to be substantively identical;
the three hot water immersion treatment schedules in Sec. 305.22, for
example, differ only in wording. In other cases, we have retained
language that may be ambiguous; in vapor heat treatment schedule T106-
e, the treatment instructions state that fruit must be held at 114.8
[deg]F or above for 20 minutes, without stating whether 20 minutes is a
minimum time or the exact time for
[[Page 33266]]
which that temperature must be held. We are currently reviewing the
provisions of the PPQ Treatment Manual that we have moved into part 305
in this final rule, and we may amend part 305 in the future to address
issues such as those described above. If we undertake such amendments,
we will do so through notice-and-comment rulemaking.
In the course of transferring the requirements for treatment
facilities to part 305 from the Treatment Manual, we edited the
requirements to make them more performance based, clear, and concise,
and to eliminate redundancy. However, these requirements were not
changed in any substantive way.
The amended content of part 305 is discussed below in general
terms; specific requirements for phytosanitary treatments are contained
in the rule portion of this document.
Amended Part 305
Definitions
We are amending Sec. 305.1 by adding several definitions for types
of treatments and terms related to administering treatments.
Specifically, we are adding definitions for the following terms:
Autoclaving, cold treatment, forced hot air, fumigant, fumigation,
hitchhiker pest, hot water immersion dip, irradiation, methyl bromide,
phosphine, quick freeze, Section 18 of Federal Insecticide, Fungicide,
and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), sulfuryl fluoride, steam heat, vacuum
fumigation, and vapor heat. The definitions for each of these terms are
located below in the rule portion of the document, along with the terms
and definitions that were already included in part 305, prior to this
rule.
We are also amending the definition of inspector, which had
previously been defined as ``Any employee of the Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service or other person authorized by the
Administrator to inspect and certify the plant health status of plants
and products under this part,'' to reflect the fact that some
inspection responsibilities have been transferred to the Department of
Homeland Security's Bureau of Customs and Border Protection.
Approved Treatments
Prior to this rule, Sec. 305.2 contained provisions for the
irradiation treatment of imported fruits and vegetables for certain
fruit flies and a mango seed weevil. Since irradiation treatment of
imported fruits and vegetables will now be one of a number of
treatments located in part 305, we are reorganizing the part, and we
have redesignated the section concerning irradiation of imported fruits
and vegetables as Sec. 305.31. Section 305.2 now lists the commodities
for which approved treatments are available.
The listed commodities are alpha grass and handicrafts; bags,
bagging materials, and covers; broomcorn and broomcorn articles; cotton
and cotton products; cut flowers and greenery; equipment; fruits and
vegetables; garbage; hay, baled; materials or products that could be
infested by khapra beetle; miscellaneous nonfood, nonfeed commodities;
plants, bulbs, corms, tubers, rhizomes, and roots; railroad cars
(empty); rice straw and hulls; seeds; ships, containers, and
surrounding area; skins (goatskins, lambskins, and sheepskins); soil;
sugarcane; and wood products. The commodities, except for fruits and
vegetables, are primarily arranged alphabetically by the type of
commodity, followed by pests of concern and approved treatment
schedules.
The list of fruits and vegetables is arranged first by the area of
origin of the fruit or vegetable, including specific foreign countries
and quarantined areas in the United States. Currently, treatment is
authorized for fruits and vegetables from specific regions in 7 CFR
parts 301, 318, and 319 or in departmental permits issued in accordance
with 7 CFR part 319. Although the origin of fruits and vegetables is
seldom identified in the PPQ Treatment Manual, we have included this
information in the list of approved treatments for fruits and
vegetables, when possible, to assist importers, individuals who
administer the treatments, and others in determining whether a
treatment is available for admissible fruits or vegetables from a
specific country or quarantined area within the United States. In cases
where a treatment is approved for a commodity but not associated with a
specific country or other area of origin, the commodity is listed under
``All.'' Beside each area of origin, we list specific fruits and
vegetables from those areas for which a treatment is authorized.
Alongside the specific commodity for which treatment is authorized, the
list shows the pest of concern followed by the treatment schedule that
may be used to treat the commodity for that pest.
Some treatment schedules are set out in Sec. 305.2, but in most
cases, the treatment schedules identified are located in a subsequent
subpart according to the type of treatment--chemical, cold, quick
freeze, heat, irradiation, various treatments for garbage, and
miscellaneous. Most listed treatments are identified by a combination
of capital letters and a ``T'' (treatment) number (e.g., MB T104-a-1).
The capital letters indicate the type of treatment (e.g., MB refers to
methyl bromide fumigation), and the ``T'' number (e.g., T104-a-1)
refers to a specific treatment schedule. Listed treatments that
duplicate schedules in part 301 have acronymic identifiers; for
example, a treatment schedule to neutralize Oriental fruit fly in
fruits and vegetables using fumigation with methyl bromide is
identified as MBOFF. (It was not necessary to introduce acronymic
identifiers for listed treatments that duplicate schedules in part 318;
irradiation is the only treatment for which a schedule was duplicated
from part 318, and it is identified by the generic abbreviation IR.)
Chemical Treatments
The first section (Sec. 305.5) within the subpart for chemical
treatments contains requirements for facility certification, treatment
monitoring, and treatment procedures. One of the requirements is that
all chemical applications must be administered in accordance with an
EPA-approved pesticide label and the APHIS-approved treatment schedule.
It is possible that EPA may cancel the approval for use of a pesticide
on a commodity before APHIS has had the opportunity to remove the
associated treatment schedule for that commodity. If EPA cancels the
approval for use of a pesticide on a commodity, the schedule is no
longer authorized. If the commodity is not listed on the label or does
not have a section 18 exemption under the Federal Insecticide,
Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), then no chemical treatment is
available.
The next five sections provide the treatment schedules for
administering methyl bromide (Sec. 305.6); phosphine (Sec. 305.7);
sulfuryl fluoride (Sec. 305.8); aerosol spray for aircraft (Sec.
305.9); combination treatments (Sec. 305.10), which combine chemical
treatments with nonchemical treatments, such as fumigation with methyl
bromide and cold treatment; and miscellaneous chemical treatments
(Sec. 305.11). The treatment schedules set out requirements that are
within the limits authorized by EPA. However, to ensure that an
actionable pest is neutralized with minimal effect on the quality of
the commodity, the schedules may be more specific than what is stated
on the pesticide label.
[[Page 33267]]
Nonchemical Treatments
Nonchemical treatments are organized into six subparts: Cold
treatment, quick freeze, heat treatment, irradiation, various treatment
for garbage, and miscellaneous treatments.
The subpart for cold treatment contains treatment requirements
(Sec. 305.15) and treatment schedules (Sec. 305.16). The treatment
requirements in Sec. 305.15 cover facility and carrier approval,
treatment enclosures, treatment monitoring, compliance agreements for
cold treatment facilities located in the United States, work plans for
cold treatment facilities located outside the United States, and
treatment procedures.
The subpart for quick freeze treatment lists commodities for which
quick freeze is authorized and prohibited in Sec. 305.17 and sets out
treatment schedule T110 in Sec. 305.18.
The subpart for heat treatments includes treatment requirements
(Sec. 305.20) and treatment schedules for hot water dip (Sec.
305.21), hot water immersion (Sec. 305.22), steam sterilization (Sec.
305.23), vapor heat (Sec. 305.24), dry heat (Sec. 305.25), heat
treatment for materials or products that could be infested by khapra
beetle (Sec. 305.26), forced hot air (Sec. 305.27), and kiln
sterilization (Sec. 305.28). The treatment requirements in Sec.
305.20 cover facility certification, treatment monitoring, compliance
agreements for heat treatment facilities located in the United States,
work plans for facilities located outside the United States, and
treatment procedures.
(Note: APHIS certification of facilities that administer
approved phytosanitary treatments always involves the preparation of
a compliance agreement for facilities within the United States, or
the preparation of a work plan for facilities outside the United
States. The compliance agreement or work plan sets out the
procedures the facilities will follow and is signed by officials
from APHIS and the facility (in the case of a compliance agreement)
or by officials from APHIS, the facility, and the national plant
protection organization of the country of export (in the case of a
work plan). The PPQ Treatment Manual specifically mentions the need
for a work plan in sections pertaining to certification of
facilities for some types of heat treatment, but not all, and does
not mention compliance agreements. For clarity and transparency, we
are referencing both types of documents in part 305 under each type
of heat treatment.)
The subpart for irradiation includes four sections authorizing
irradiation treatment for commodities from different areas and for
different pests. Irradiation treatment for imported fruits and
vegetables, which was the only treatment provided for in part 305 prior
to this final rule, has been moved to Sec. 305.31. This new section
includes all the provisions previously in Sec. 305.2, plus two
requirements from the PPQ Treatment Manual: (1) All containers or vans
that will transport treated commodities must be free of pests prior to
loading the treated commodities and (2) each shipment of fruits and
vegetables treated outside the United States must be accompanied into
the United States by a phytosanitary certificate. All of these
requirements are now in Sec. 305.31. The subpart for irradiation also
includes three sections, Sec. Sec. 305.32 through 305.34, that
duplicate the irradiation treatments in Sec. 301.64-10(g), for
regulated articles moved interstate from areas under Federal quarantine
for Mexican fruit fly; in Sec. 301.78-10(c), for regulated articles
moved interstate from areas under Federal quarantine for Mediterranean
fruit fly; and in Sec. 318.13-4f, for certain commodities moved
interstate from Hawaii.
The subpart for garbage treatments contains treatment schedules and
requirements for caterers conducting the treatments under compliance
agreements (Sec. 305.40). The subpart lists three treatment schedules
for neutralizing insect pests and pathogens: Incineration, dry heat,
and grinding and discharge into a sewer system.
The miscellaneous treatments subpart contains treatment schedules
for soapy water and wax for certain fruits; warm soapy water and
brushing for durian and other large fruits, such as breadfruit; and
alternative treatments for plant material not tolerant to fumigation
(Sec. 305.42).
Miscellaneous
We have made minor, nonsubstantive changes to parts 301, 318, and
319. In Sec. 319.56-2k, we have replaced a reference to the Union of
Soviet Socialist Republics with a reference to Armenia, Azerbaijan,
Belarus, Estonia, Georgia, Latvia, Lithuania, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan,
Republic of Moldova, Russian Federation, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan,
Ukraine, and Uzbekistan. In parts 301, 318, and 319, we have changed
references to ``he'' or ``him'' to terms that are more inclusive (e.g.,
``he or she'' or ``the inspector''). Because the Oxford Plant
Protection Center has moved to the Center for Plant Health Science and
Technology, we have amended the address in the regulations. We have
also corrected typographical errors in the regulations.
Internal Agency Management
This rule relates to internal agency management. Therefore, this
rule is exempt from the provisions of Executive Orders 12866 and 12988.
Moreover, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553, notice of proposed rulemaking and
opportunity for comment are not required for this rule, and it may be
made effective less than 30 days after publication in the Federal
Register. In addition, under 5 U.S.C. 804, this rule is not subject to
congressional review under the Congressional Review Act of 1996, Pub.
L. 104-121. Finally, this action is not a rule as defined by 5 U.S.C.
601 et seq., the Regulatory Flexibility Act, and thus is exempt from
the provisions of that Act.
Paperwork Reduction Act
This rule contains no information collection or recordkeeping
requirements under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.). [Must be confirmed.]

Sec. 305.1 Definitions.
The following definitions apply for the purposes of this part:
Administrator. The Administrator, Animal and Plant Health
Inspection Service, United States Department of Agriculture, or any
person delegated to act for the Administrator in matters affecting this
part.
APHIS. The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, United
States Department of Agriculture.
Autoclaving. The introduction of steam at 212 [deg]F into a
pressurized enclosure containing a commodity to kill spores and other
treatment-resistant pests.
Cold treatment. Exposure of a commodity to a specified cold
temperature that is sustained for a specific time period to kill
targeted pests, especially fruit flies.
Dose mapping. Measurement of absorbed dose within a process load
using dosimeters placed at specified locations to produce a one-, two-,
or three-dimensional distribution of absorbed dose, thus rendering a
map of absorbed-dose values.
Dosimeter. A device that, when irradiated, exhibits a quantifiable
change in some property of the device that can be related to absorbed
dose in a given material using appropriate analytical instrumentation
and techniques.
Dosimetry system. A system used for determining absorbed dose,
consisting of dosimeters, measurement instruments and their associated
reference standards, and procedures for the system's use.
Forced hot air. Hot air blown uniformly across commodities in a
shipment until the pulp of each unit in the shipment of the commodity
reaches a specified temperature.
Fumigant. A gaseous chemical that easily diffuses and disperses in
air and is toxic to the target organism.
Fumigation. Releasing and dispersing a toxic chemical in the air so
that it reaches the target organism in a gaseous state.
Hitchhiker pest. A pest that is carried by a commodity or a
conveyance and, in the case of plants and plant products, does not
infest those plants or plant products.
Hot water immersion dip. Complete immersion of a commodity in
heated water to raise the temperature of the commodity to a specific
temperature for a specified time. This treatment is usually used to
kill fruit flies.
Inspector. Any individual authorized by the Administrator of APHIS
or the Commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, Department of
Homeland Security, to enforce the regulations in this part.
Irradiation. The use of irradiated energy to kill or devitalize
organisms.
Methyl bromide. A colorless, odorless biocide used to fumigate a
wide range of commodities.
Phosphine. Flammable gas generated from either aluminum phosphide
or magnesium phosphide and used to treat stored product commodities.
Quick freeze. A commercially acceptable method of quick freezing at
subzero temperatures with subsequent storage and transportation at not
higher than 20 [deg]F. Methods that accomplish this are known as quick
freezing, sharp freezing, cold pack, or frozen pack, but may be any
equivalent commercially acceptable freezing method.
Section 18 of Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act
(FIFRA). An emergency exemption granted by the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency to Federal or State agencies authorizing an
unregistered use of a pesticide for a limited time.
Sulfuryl fluoride. An odorless, colorless, and nonflammable
compressed fumigant that is used primarily to kill pests of wood.
Steam heat. The introduction of steam at 212 [deg]F or higher into
an enclosure containing a commodity to kill targeted organisms.
Vacuum fumigation. Fumigation performed in a gas-tight enclosure.
Most
[[Page 33270]]
air in the enclosure is removed and replaced with a small amount of
fumigant. The reduction in pressure reduces the required duration of
the treatment.
Vapor heat. Heated air saturated with water vapor and used to raise
the temperature of a commodity to a required point for a specific
period.
Sec. 305.2 Approved treatments.
(a) Certain commodities or articles require treatment, or are
subject to treatment, prior to the interstate movement within the
United States or importation or entry into the United States. Treatment
is required as indicated in parts 301, 318, and 319 of this chapter, on
a permit, or by an inspector.
(1) Treatment schedules provided in this part must be followed to
neutralize pests.
(2) More information about treatment schedules is contained in the

Sec. Sec. 305.3-305.4 [Reserved]
Subpart--Chemical Treatments
Sec. 305.5 Treatment requirements.
(a) Certified facility. The fumigation treatment facility must be
certified by APHIS. Facilities are required to be inspected and
recertified annually, or as often as APHIS directs, depending upon
treatments performed, commodities handled, and operations conducted at
the facility. In order to be certified, a fumigation facility must:
(1) Be capable of administering the required dosage range for the
required duration and at the appropriate temperature.
(2) Be adequate to contain the fumigant and be constructed from
material that is not reactive to the fumigant.
(3) For vacuum fumigation facilities, be constructed to withstand
required negative pressure.
(b) Monitoring. Treatment must be monitored by an official
authorized by APHIS to ensure proper administration of the treatment,
including that the correct amount of gas reaches the target organism
and that an adequate number and placement of blowers, fans, sampling
tubes, or monitoring lines are used in the treatment enclosure. An
[[Page 33297]]
official authorized by APHIS approves, adjusts, or rejects the
treatment.
(c) Treatment procedures. (1) To kill the pest, all chemical
applications must be administered in accordance with an Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) approved pesticide label and the APHIS-approved
treatment schedule prescribed in this part. If EPA cancels approval for
the use of a pesticide on a commodity, then the treatment schedule
prescribed in this part is no longer authorized for that commodity. If
the commodity is not listed on the pesticide label and/or a Federal
quarantine or crisis exemption in accordance with FIFRA section 18,
then no chemical treatment is available.
(2) Temperature/concentration readings must be taken for items
known to be sorptive or whose sorptive properties are unknown when
treatment is administered in chambers at normal atmospheric pressure.
(3) The volume of the commodity stacked inside the treatment
enclosure must not exceed \2/3\ of the volume of the enclosure.
Stacking must be approved by an official authorized by APHIS before
treatment begins. All commodities undergoing treatment must be listed
on the label.
(4) Recording and measuring equipment must be adequate to
accurately monitor the gas concentration, to ensure the correct amount
of gas reaches the pests, and to detect any leaks in the enclosure. At
least three sampling tubes or monitoring lines must be used in the
treatment enclosure.
(5) An adequate number of blowers or fans must be used inside of
the treatment enclosure to uniformly distribute gas throughout the
enclosure. The circulation system must be able to recirculate the
entire volume of gas in the enclosure in 3 minutes or less.
(6) The exposure period begins after all gas has been introduced.
(7) For vacuum fumigation: The vacuum pump must be able to reduce
pressure in the treatment enclosure to 1-2 inches of mercury in 15
minutes or less.

(b) MBSFF, fumigation with methyl bromide for sapote fruit fly.
Regulated citrus fruits originating inside an area quarantined for
sapote fruit fly that are to be moved outside the quarantined area may
be treated with methyl bromide fumigation in APHIS-approved chambers.
Exposure period for this treatment is 2 hours. To enhance equal
concentrations of methyl bromide throughout the chamber, a fan should
be placed near the point of gas introduction, and allowed to run for at
least 15 minutes. Fruit pulp temperature must be between 21.1 [deg]C
and 29.4 [deg]C (70 [deg]F and 85 [deg]F). This temperature requirement
refers to fruit pulp only and not to air temperature within the
chamber. Fruit taken from a cooling room may have to be prewarmed
before fumigation is attempted. To determine fruit pulp temperature,
stab several fruit to the center with a suitable thermometer that reads
at least in whole degrees (F or C). The lowest temperature should be
used, not the average. The methyl bromide dosage is set at a rate of
2.5 pounds of 100 percent pure, type ``Q'' (for quarantine use only)
methyl bromide per 1,000 cubic feet of chamber space. Dosage is based
upon chamber volume, not the volume of the fruit being treated. Fruit
should be in cartons approved for fumigation. Cartons must be placed on
pallets. There should be an air space of at least 1 foot between
adjacent pallet loads; at least 1 foot between chamber walls and the
nearest carton of fruit; and at least 2 feet between the height of the
stack and the ceiling of the chamber. The compressed liquid methyl
bromide inside the cylinder must be put through a volatilizer prior to
injection into the chamber. Water temperature in the volatilizer must
never fall below 65.6 [deg]C (150 [deg]F) at any time during gas
injection. However, if, prior to treatment, representative sampling
reveals a level of infestation greater than 0.5 percent for the lot,
then the fruit is ineligible for treatment.

Subpart-Cold Treatments
Sec. 305.15 Treatment requirements.
(a) Approved facilities and carriers. Cold treatment facilities or
carriers must be approved by APHIS. Reapproval is required annually, or
as often as APHIS directs, depending on treatments performed,
commodities handled, and operations conducted at the facility. In order
to be approved, facilities and carriers must:
(1) Be capable of keeping treated and untreated fruits, vegetables,
or other articles separate so as to prevent reinfestation of articles
and spread of pests;
(2) Have equipment that is adequate to effectively perform cold
treatment.
(b) Cold treatment enclosures. All enclosures in which cold
treatment is performed, including refrigerated containers, must:
(1) Be capable of precooling, cooling, and holding fruit at
temperatures less than or equal to 2.2 [deg]C (36 [deg]F).
(2) Maintain pulp temperatures according to treatment schedules
with no more than a 0.3 [deg]C (0.54 [deg]F) variation in temperature.
(3) Be structurally sound and adequate to maintain required

(c) Monitoring. Treatment must be monitored by an official
authorized by APHIS to ensure proper administration of the treatment.
An official authorized by APHIS must approve the recording devices and
sensors used to monitor temperatures and conduct an operational check
of the equipment before each use and ensure sensors are calibrated. An
official authorized by APHIS approves, adjusts, or rejects the
treatment.
(d) Compliance agreements. Facilities located in the United States
must operate under a compliance agreement with APHIS. The compliance
agreement must be signed by a representative of the cold treatment
facility and APHIS. The compliance agreement must contain requirements
for equipment, temperature, circulation, and other operational
requirements for performing cold treatment to ensure that treatments
are administered properly. Compliance agreements must allow officials
of APHIS to inspect the facility to monitor compliance with the
regulations.
(e) Work plans. Facilities located outside the United States must
operate in accordance with a work plan. The work plan must be signed by
a representative of the cold treatment facility, the national plant
protection organization of the country of origin (NPPO), and APHIS. The
work plan must contain requirements for equipment, temperature,
circulation, and other operational requirements for performing cold
treatment to ensure that cold treatments are administered properly.
Work plans for facilities outside the United States may include trust
fund agreement information regarding payment of the salaries and
expenses of APHIS employees on site. Work plans must allow officials of
the NPPO and APHIS to inspect the facility to monitor compliance with
APHIS regulations.
(f) Treatment procedures. (1) All material, labor, and equipment
for cold treatment performed on vessels must be provided by the vessel
or vessel agent. An official authorized by APHIS monitors, manages, and
advises in order to ensure that the treatment procedures are followed.
(2) Fruit that may be cold treated must be safeguarded to prevent
cross-contamination or mixing with other infested fruit. Before loading
in cold treatment containers, packages of fruit must be precooled to a
treatment temperature or to a uniform temperature
[[Page 33312]]
not to exceed 4.5 [deg]C (40 [deg]F) or precooled at the terminal to
2.2 [deg]F (36 [deg]F).
(3) Breaks, damage, etc., in the treatment enclosure that preclude
maintaining correct temperatures must be repaired before use. An
official authorized by APHIS must approve loading of compartment,
number and placement of sensors, and initial fruit temperature readings
before beginning the treatment.
(4) At least three temperature sensors must be used in the
treatment compartment during treatment.
(5) The time required to complete the treatment begins when the
temperature reaches the required temperature.
(6) Only the same type of fruit in the same type of package may be
treated together in a container; no mixture of fruits in containers
will be treated.
(7) Fruit must be stacked to allow cold air to be distributed
throughout the enclosure, with no pockets of warmer air, and to allow
random sampling of pulp temperature in any location in load.
Temperatures must be recorded at intervals no longer than 1 hour apart.
Gaps of longer than 1 hour may invalidate the treatment or indicate
treatment failure.
(8) Cold treatment is not completed until so designated by an
official authorized by APHIS or the certifying official of the foreign
country; shipments of treated commodities may not be discharged until
full APHIS clearance has been completed, including review and approval
of treatment record charts.
(9) Pretreatment conditioning (heat shock or 100.4 [deg]F for 10 to
12 hours) of fruits is optional and is the responsibility of the
shipper.
(10) Cold treatment of fruits in break-bulk vessels or containers
must be initiated by an official authorized by APHIS if there is not a
treatment technician who has been trained to initiate cold treatments
for either break-bulk vessels or containers.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
(b) Location of facilities. Where certified irradiation facilities
are available, an approved irradiation treatment may be conducted for
any fruit or vegetable either prior to shipment to the United States or
in the United States. Irradiation facilities certified under this
section may be located in any State on the mainland United States
except Alabama, Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia,\1\ Kentucky,
Louisiana, Mississippi,\1\ Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina,\1\ South
Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Prior to treatment, the
fruits and vegetables to be irradiated may not move into or through any
of the States listed in this paragraph, except that movement is allowed
through Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas, as an authorized stop for air cargo,
or as a transloading location for shipments that arrive by air but that
are subsequently transloaded into trucks for overland movement from
Dallas/Fort Worth into an authorized State by the shortest route.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Irradiation facilities may be located at the maritime ports
of Gulfport, MS, or Wilmington, NC, or the airport of Atlanta, GA,
if the following special conditions are met: The articles to be
irradiated must be imported packaged in accordance with paragraph
(g)(2)(i)(A) of this section; the irradiation facility and APHIS
must agree in advance on the route by which shipments are allowed to
move between the vessel on which they arrive and the irradiation
facility; untreated articles may not be removed from their packaging
prior to treatment under any circumstances; blacklight or sticky
paper must be used within the irradiation facility, and other
trapping methods, including Jackson/methyl eugenol and McPhail
traps, must be used within the 4 square miles surrounding the
facility; and the facility must have contingency plans, approved by
APHIS, for safely destroying or disposing of fruit.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(c) Compliance agreement with importers and facility operators for
irradiation in the United States. If irradiation is conducted in the
United States, both the importer and the operator of the irradiation
facility must sign compliance agreements with the Administrator. In the
facility compliance agreement, the facility operator must agree to
comply with any additional requirements found necessary by the
Administrator to prevent the escape, prior to irradiation, of any fruit
flies that may be associated with the articles to be irradiated. In the
importer compliance agreement, the importer must agree to comply with
any additional requirements found necessary by the Administrator to
ensure the shipment is not diverted to a destination other than an
approved treatment facility and to prevent escape of plant pests from
the articles to be irradiated during their transit from the port of
first arrival to the irradiation facility in the United States.
(d) Compliance agreement with irradiation facilities outside the
United States. If irradiation is conducted outside the United States,
the operator of the irradiation facility must sign a compliance
agreement with the Administrator and the plant protection service of
the country in which the facility is located. In this agreement, the
facility operator must agree to comply with the requirements of this
section, and the plant protection service of the country in which the
facility is located must agree to monitor that compliance and to inform
the Administrator of any noncompliance.
(e) Certified facility. The irradiation treatment facility must be
certified by the Administrator. Recertification is required in the
event of an increase or decrease in the amount of radioisotope, a major
modification to equipment that affects the delivered dose, or a change
in the owner or managing entity of the facility. Recertification also
may be required in cases where a significant variance in dose delivery
has been measured by the dosimetry system. In order to be certified, a
facility must:
(1) Be capable of administering the minimum absorbed ionizing
radiation doses specified in paragraph (a) of this section to the
fruits and vegetables; \2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The maximum absorbed ionizing radiation dose and the
irradiation of food is regulated by the Food and Drug Administration
under 21 CFR part 179.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(2) Be constructed so as to provide physically separate locations
for treated and untreated fruits and vegetables, except that fruits and
vegetables traveling by conveyor directly into the irradiation chamber
may pass through an area that would otherwise be separated. The
locations must be separated by a permanent physical barrier such as a
wall or chain link fence 6 or more feet high to prevent transfer of
cartons, or some other means approved during certification to prevent
reinfestation of articles and spread of pests;
[[Page 33318]]
(3) If the facility is located in the United States, the facility
will only be certified if the Administrator determines that regulated
articles will be safely transported to the facility from the port of
arrival without significant risk that plant pests will escape in
transit or while the regulated articles are at the facility.
(f) Monitoring and interagency agreements. Treatment must be
monitored by an inspector. This monitoring will include inspection of
treatment records and unannounced inspections of the facility by an
inspector, and may include inspection of articles prior to or after
irradiation. Facilities that carry out irradiation operations must
notify the Director of Preclearance, PPQ, APHIS, 4700 River Road Unit
140, Riverdale, MD 20737-1236, of scheduled operations at least 30 days
before operations commence, except where otherwise provided in the
facility preclearance work plan. To ensure the appropriate level of
monitoring, before articles may be imported in accordance with this
section, the following agreements must be signed:
(1) Irradiation treatment framework equivalency work plan. The
plant protection service of a country from which articles are to be
imported into the United States in accordance with this section must
sign a framework equivalency work plan with APHIS. In this plan, both
the foreign plant protection service and APHIS will specify the
following items for their respective countries:
(i) Citations for any requirements that apply to the importation of
irradiated fruits and vegetables;
(ii) The type and amount of inspection, monitoring, or other
activities that will be required in connection with allowing the
importation of irradiated fruits and vegetables into that country; and
(iii) Any other conditions that must be met to allow the
importation of irradiated fruits and vegetables into that country.
(2) Facility preclearance work plan. Prior to commencing
importation into the United States of articles treated at a foreign
irradiation facility, APHIS and the plant protection service of the
country from which articles are to be imported must jointly develop a
preclearance work-plan that details the activities that APHIS and the
foreign plant protection service will carry out in connection with each
irradiation facility to verify the facility's compliance with the
requirements of this section. Typical activities to be described in
this work plan may include frequency of visits to the facility by APHIS
and foreign plant protection inspectors, methods for reviewing facility
records, and methods for verifying that facilities are in compliance
with the requirements for separation of articles, packaging, labeling,
and other requirements of this section. This facility preclearance work
plan will be reviewed and renewed by APHIS and the foreign plant
protection service on an annual basis.
(3) Trust fund agreement. Irradiated articles may be imported into
the United States in accordance with this section only if the plant
protection service of the country in which the irradiation facility is
located has entered into a trust fund agreement with APHIS. That
agreement requires the plant protection service to pay, in advance of
each shipping season, all costs that APHIS estimates it will incur in
providing inspection and treatment monitoring services at the
irradiation facility during that shipping season. Those costs include
administrative expenses and all salaries (including overtime and the
Federal share of employee benefits), travel expenses (including per
diem expenses), and other incidental expenses incurred by APHIS in
performing these services. The agreement will describe the general
nature and scope of APHIS services provided at irradiation facilities
covered by the agreement, such as whether APHIS inspectors will monitor
operations continuously or intermittently, and will generally describe
the extent of inspections APHIS will perform on articles prior to and
after irradiation. The agreement requires the plant protection service
to deposit a certified or cashier's check with APHIS for the amount of
those costs, as estimated by APHIS. If the deposit is not sufficient to
meet all costs incurred by APHIS, the agreement further requires the
plant protection service to deposit with APHIS a certified or cashier's
check for the amount of the remaining costs, as determined by APHIS,
before any more articles irradiated in that country may be imported
into the United States. After a final audit at the conclusion of each
shipping season, any overpayment of funds would be returned to the
plant protection service or held on account until needed, at the option
of the plant protection service.
(g) Packaging. Fruits and vegetables that are irradiated in
accordance with this section must be packaged in cartons in the
following manner:
(1) All fruits and vegetables treated with irradiation must be
shipped in the same cartons in which they are treated. Irradiated
fruits and vegetables may not be packaged for shipment in a carton with
nonirradiated fruits and vegetables.
(2) For all fruits and vegetables irradiated prior to arrival in
the United States:
(i) The fruits and vegetables to be irradiated must be packaged
either:
(A) In insect-proof cartons that have no openings that will allow
the entry of fruit flies. The cartons must be sealed with seals that
will visually indicate if the cartons have been opened. The cartons may
be constructed of any material that prevents the entry of fruit flies
and prevents oviposition by fruit flies into the articles in the carton
\3\; or
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ If there is a question as to the adequacy of a carton, send
a request for approval of the carton, together with a sample carton,
to the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, Plant Protection
and Quarantine, Center for Plant Health Inspection and Technology,
1017 Main Campus Drive, suite 2500, Raleigh, NC 27606.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(B) In noninsect-proof cartons that are stored immediately after
irradiation in a room completely enclosed by walls or screening that
completely precludes access by fruit flies. If stored in noninsect-
proof cartons in a room that precludes access by fruit flies, prior to
leaving the room each pallet of cartons must be completely enclosed in
polyethylene, shrink-wrap, or another solid or netting covering that
completely precludes access to the cartons by fruit flies.
(ii) To preserve the identity of treated lots, each pallet-load of
cartons containing the fruits and vegetables must be wrapped before
leaving the irradiation facility in one of the following ways:
(A) With polyethylene shrink wrap;
(B) With net wrapping; or
(C) With strapping so that each carton on an outside row of the
pallet load is constrained by a metal or plastic strap.
(iii) Packaging must be labeled with treatment lot numbers, packing
and treatment facility identification and location, and dates of
packing and treatment. Pallets that remain intact as one unit until
entry into the United States may have one such label per pallet.
Pallets that are broken apart into smaller units prior to or during
entry into the United States must have the required label information
on each individual carton.
(h) Containers or vans. Containers or vans that will transport
treated commodities must be free of pests prior to loading the treated
commodities.
(i) Phytosanitary certificate. For each shipment treated in an
irradiation facility outside the United States, a phytosanitary
certificate, with the treatment section completed and issued by the
national plant protection
[[Page 33319]]
organization, must accompany the shipment.
(j) Dosimetry systems at the irradiation facility. (1) Dosimetry
mapping must indicate the doses needed to ensure that all the commodity
will receive the minimum dose prescribed.
(2) Absorbed dose must be measured using an accurate dosimetry
system that ensures that the absorbed dose meets or exceeds the
absorbed dose required by paragraph (a) of this section (150, 210, 225,
250, or 300 gray, depending on the target species of fruit fly or seed
weevil).
(3) When designing the facility's dosimetry system and procedures
for its operation, the facility operator must address guidance and
principles from American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)
standards \4\ or an equivalent standard recognized by the
Administrator.

treated lot for 1 year following the treatment date and must make these
records available for inspection by an inspector during normal business
hours (8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, except holidays).
These records must include the lot identification, scheduled process,
evidence of compliance with the scheduled process, ionizing energy
source, source calibration, dosimetry, dose distribution in the
product, and the date of irradiation.
(l) Request for certification and inspection of facility. Persons
requesting certification of an irradiation treatment facility must
submit the request for approval in writing to the Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service, Plant Protection and Quarantine, Center for
Plant Health Inspection and Technology, 1017 Main Campus Drive, suite

location, and radiation source of the facility, and the applicant must
supply additional information about the facility construction,
treatment protocols, and operations upon request by APHIS if APHIS
requires additional information to evaluate the request. Before the
Administrator determines whether an irradiation facility is eligible
for certification, an inspector will make a personal inspection of the
facility to determine whether it complies with the standards of this
section.
(m) Denial and withdrawal of certification. (1) The Administrator
will withdraw the certification of any irradiation treatment facility
upon written request from the irradiation processor.
(2) The Administrator will deny or withdraw certification of an
irradiation treatment facility when any provision of this section is
not met. Before withdrawing or denying certification, the Administrator
will inform the irradiation processor in writing of the reasons for the
proposed action and provide the irradiation processor with an
opportunity to respond. The Administrator will give the irradiation
processor an opportunity for a hearing regarding any dispute of a
material fact, in accordance with rules of practice that will be
adopted for the proceeding. However, the Administrator will suspend
certification pending final determination in the proceeding if he or
she determines that suspension is necessary to prevent the spread of
any dangerous insect. The suspension will be effective upon oral or
written notification, whichever is earlier, to the irradiation
processor. In the event of oral notification, written confirmation will
be given to the irradiation processor within 10 days of the oral
notification. The suspension will continue in effect pending completion
of the proceeding and any judicial review of the proceeding.
(n) Department not responsible for damage. This treatment is
approved to assure quarantine security against the listed fruit flies.
From the literature available, the fruits and vegetables authorized for
treatment under this section are believed tolerant to the treatment;
however, the facility operator and shipper are responsible for
determination of tolerance. The Department of Agriculture and its
inspectors assume no responsibility for any loss or damage resulting
from any treatment prescribed or monitored. Additionally, the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission is responsible for ensuring that irradiation
facilities are constructed and operated in a safe manner. Further, the
Food and Drug Administration is responsible for ensuring that
irradiated foods are safe and wholesome for human consumption.

processor an opportunity for a hearing regarding any dispute of a
material fact, in accordance with rules of practice that will be
adopted for the proceeding. However, the Administrator will suspend
approval pending final determination in the proceeding, if he or she
determines that suspension is necessary to prevent the spread of any
dangerous insect infestation. The suspension will be effective upon
oral or written notification, whichever is earlier, to the irradiation
processor. In
[[Page 33323]]
the event of oral notification, written confirmation will be given to
the irradiation processor within 10 days of the oral notification. The
suspension will continue in effect pending completion of the proceeding
and any judicial review of the proceeding.
(e) Department not responsible for damage. This treatment is
approved to assure quarantine security against the Trifly complex and
other plant pests. From the literature available, the fruits and
vegetables authorized for treatment under this section are believed
tolerant to the treatment; however, the facility operator and shipper
are responsible for determination of tolerance. The Department of
Agriculture and its inspectors assume no responsibility for any loss or
damage resulting from any treatment prescribed or supervised.
Additionally, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is responsible for
ensuring that irradiation facilities are constructed and operated in a
safe manner. Further, the Food and Drug Administration is responsible
for ensuring that irradiated foods are safe and wholesome for human
consumption.

heating garbage to an internal temperature of 212 [deg]F and
maintaining it at that temperature for a minimum of 30 minutes.
(2) The sterilization cycle must be reevaluated and adjusted twice
a year using thermocouple to recalibrate the temperature recording
device. Adjusting the sterilization cycle semiannually will ensure that
all garbage processed is heated to a minimum internal temperature of
212 [deg]F for at least 30 minutes and that the temperature recording
device accurately reflects the internal temperature of the sterilizer.
(3) The caterer administering the treatment under a compliance
agreement must comply with the following conditions:
(i) The operator must date and initial time/temperature records for
each batch of garbage sterilized. The supervisor must review and sign
each time/temperature record. The facility must retain records for 6
months for review by APHIS.

(2) The soapy bath must be followed with a pressure shower rinse to
remove all excess soap.
(3) The fruit must be immersed for 20 seconds in an undiluted wax
coating (such as Johnson's Wax Primafresh 31 Kosher fruit coating). The
wax coating must cover the entire surface of the fruit.
(b) T102-c, warm, soapy water and brushing for durian and other
large fruits such as breadfruit. (1) Detergent (such as Deterfrut) must
be added to warm water (110-120 [deg]F) at the rate of one part
detergent or soap to 3,000 parts water.
(2) The fruit must be immersed for at least 1 minute in the warm
detergent water.
(3) The fruit must be scrubbed with a brush with stiff bristles to
remove any insects.
(4) The fruit must be rinsed with a pressure shower to rinse the
fruit free of residue (detergent and dead insects).
(5) An inspector will inspect each brushed and cleaned fruit. If
any insects remain, the fruit must be retreated or destroyed.
(c) Three alternative treatments for plant material not tolerant to
fumigation. Treatments are based on the character of the plant material
and the type of pests that may be found.
(1) T201-p-1: For plant pests, except scale insects, hand removal
of pests or infested parts of plants followed by a detailed inspection
to ensure plants are pest free may be employed;
(2) See hand removal plus malathion-carbaryl chemical dip T201-p-2
(Sec. 305.10(d)) for alternative treatment; or
(3) T201-p-3: Following the hand removal of the visible plant pests
or infested plant parts, the plant material must be treated with hot
water at 112 [deg]F for 20 minutes. This treatment is not effective
against mature scale insects.
