APHIS said the action is in response to a risk management proposal to deregulate the moth circulated by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency in late July. The National Plant Board concurred with the recommendation. A list of all 48 pests deregulated at the port of entry through the Federally Recognized State Managed Phytosanitary Program is available here.
