{"abstract":"We are amending the fruits and vegetables regulations to list kiwi (Actinidia deliciosa and Actinidia chinensis) from Chile as eligible for importation into the United States subject to a systems approach. Under this systems approach, the fruit will have to be grown in a place of production that is registered with the Government of Chile and certified as having a low prevalence of Brevipalpus chilensis. The fruit will have to undergo pre-harvest sampling at the registered production site. Following post-harvest processing, the fruit will have to be inspected in Chile at an approved inspection site. Each consignment of fruit will have to be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate with an additional declaration stating that the fruit had been found free of Brevipalpus chilensis based on field and packinghouse inspections. This rule allows for the safe importation of kiwi from Chile using mitigation measures other than fumigation with methyl bromide.","action":"Final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE","name":"Agriculture Department","id":12,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/agriculture-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/12","parent_id":null,"slug":"agriculture-department"},{"raw_name":"Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service","name":"Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service","id":22,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/animal-and-plant-health-inspection-service","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/22","parent_id":12,"slug":"animal-and-plant-health-inspection-service"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2015/09/17/2015-23383.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":319,"title":7}],"citation":"80 FR 55739","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Effective October 19, 2015.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Docket No. APHIS-2014-0002"],"dockets":[],"document_number":"2015-23383","effective_on":"2015-10-19","end_page":55741,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2015/09/17/2015-23383.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2015/09/17/2015-23383/importation-of-kiwi-from-chile-into-the-united-states","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2015-23383?publication_date=2015-09-17","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2015-09-17/2015-23383/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":3,"page_views":{"count":1594,"last_updated":"2026-09-21 22:15:07 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2015-09-17/pdf/2015-23383.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2015-23383.pdf?1442407617","publication_date":"2015-09-17","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2015/09/17/2015-23383.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{"0579-AD98":null},"regulation_id_numbers":["0579-AD98"],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Analysis in Support of Certification that the Rule will not have a Significant Economic Impact on a Substantial Number of Small Entities: Importation of Kiwi from Chile into the United States","document_id":"APHIS-2014-0002-0003"},{"title":"Commodity Import Evaluation Document (CIED): Importation of Fresh Fruits of Kiwi (Actinidia deliciosa and Actinidia chinensis) from Chile into the United States","document_id":"APHIS-2014-0002-0002"}],"comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=APHIS-2014-0002","supporting_documents_count":2,"docket_id":"APHIS-2014-0002","regulation_id_number":"0579-AD98","title":"Importation of Kiwis From Chile Into the United States","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2015-10-07T06:00:10Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":55739,"subtype":null,"title":"Importation of Kiwi From Chile Into the United States","toc_doc":"Importation of Kiwi from Chile into the United States","toc_subject":null,"topics":["Coffee","Cotton","Fruits","Imports","Nursery stock","Plant diseases and pests","Quarantine","Reporting and recordkeeping requirements","Rice","Vegetables"],"type":"Rule","volume":80}
