accordance with paragraph (c) of this section, shall not be moved 
interstate from any generally infested area into or through any area 
that is not generally infested unless a certificate or permit has been 
issued and attached to such regulated article in accordance with 
Secs. 301.45-5 and 301.45-8.4

    (2) An outdoor household article shall not be moved interstate from

and attached to such outdoor household article in accordance with 
Secs. 301.45-5 and 301.45-8.
    (b) A regulated article originating outside of any generally 
infested area may be moved interstate directly through any generally 
infested area without a certificate or permit if the point of origin of 
the article is clearly indicated by shipping documents, its identity has 
been maintained, and it has been safeguarded against infestation while 
in any generally infested area during the months of April through June.

moths, such as canvas, plastic, or closely woven cloth.

be moved interstate from a generally infested area without a certificate 
if it complies with (1) or (2) of this paragraph:
    (1) The article is moved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture for 
experimental or scientific purposes, and:
    (i) Is moved pursuant to a permit issued for each article by the 
Administrator;
    (ii) Is moved in accordance with conditions specified on the permit 
and found by the Administrator to be adequate to prevent the 
dissemination of the gypsy moth, i.e., conditions of treatment, 
processing, shipment, and disposal; and
    (iii) Is moved with a tag or label securely attached to the outside 
of the container containing the article or securely attached to the 
article itself if not in a container, and with such tag

or label bearing a permit number corresponding to the number of the 
permit issued for such article.
    (2) The article is logs, pulpwood, or wood chips, and the person 
moving the article has attached a signed accurate statement to the
