The Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service is restricting imports from Chile of host commodities of the Mediterranean fruit fly, after the pest was detected in several regions of the South American country, it said in a Federal Order dated July 31 (here). Commodities from the Chilean regions of Tarapaca (Region I), Coquimbo (Region IV), and Valparaiso (Region V) in Chile must now be treated for Medfly prior to export by using treatment schedule T107-a, under the existing pre-clearance program in Chile, said APHIS. Medfly host material originating from areas in Chile not under quarantine for Medfly must have a phytosanitary certificate issued by Chile’s national plant protection organization, with an additional declaration that the consignment was produced in a pest-free area for Medfly, it said. The restrictions primarily affect the export of clementines, grapes, lemons, mandarins, pomegranates, and tangerines from the quarantine areas, said APHIS.
