{"abstract":"We are advising the public that we have prepared a commodity import evaluation document (CIED) relative to deregulating light brown apple moth (LBAM) requirements for fruit imported from New Zealand into the United States. Currently, fruit imported from New Zealand into the United States must be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate with an additional declaration stating that the fruit is free of LBAM. Based on the findings of the CIED, we are proposing to remove the requirement for the additional declaration. Accordingly, we propose to revise the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Agricultural Commodity Import Requirements database regarding LBAM requirements for fruit imported from New Zealand into the United States. These proposed changes would harmonize our domestic and import requirements. We are making the CIED available to the public for review and comment.","action":"Notice.","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/2024/11/25/2024-27563.html","cfr_references":[],"citation":"89 FR 92887","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":"2025-01-24","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"We will consider all comments that we receive on or before January 24, 2025.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":["Docket No. APHIS-2020-0032"],"dockets":[{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Commodity Import Evaluation Document (CIED): \n Justification for Harmonizing Import Requirements for Light Brown Apple Moth Hosts from New Zealand with Domestic Requirements, June 2024","document_id":"APHIS-2020-0032-0003"},{"title":"Economic Effects Assessment LBAM Deregulation for Fruits and Vegetables from New Zealand, June 2024","document_id":"APHIS-2020-0032-0002"}],"agency_name":"APHIS","documents":[{"comment_count":2,"comment_start_date":"2024-11-25","updated_at":"2025-01-25T00:01:06.222-05:00","comment_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/commenton/APHIS-2020-0032-0001","allow_late_comments":false,"id":"APHIS-2020-0032-0001","comment_end_date":"2025-01-25","regulations_dot_gov_open_for_comment":false}],"supporting_documents_count":2,"id":"APHIS-2020-0032","title":"LBAM Deregulation for Fruits and Vegetables."}],"document_number":"2024-27563","effective_on":null,"end_page":92888,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"explanation":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2024/11/25/2024-27563.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/11/25/2024-27563/deregulation-of-light-brown-apple-moth-for-the-importation-of-fruit-from-new-zealand-into-the-united","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/2024-27563?publication_date=2024-11-25","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2024-11-25/2024-27563/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":2,"page_views":{"count":75,"last_updated":"2026-04-04 18:15:03 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-11-25/pdf/2024-27563.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2024-27563.pdf?1732283135","publication_date":"2024-11-25","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2024/11/25/2024-27563.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"supporting_documents":[{"title":"Commodity Import Evaluation Document (CIED): \n Justification for Harmonizing Import Requirements for Light Brown Apple Moth Hosts from New Zealand with Domestic Requirements, June 2024","document_id":"APHIS-2020-0032-0003"},{"title":"Economic Effects Assessment LBAM Deregulation for Fruits and Vegetables from New Zealand, June 2024","document_id":"APHIS-2020-0032-0002"}],"comments_count":2,"agency_id":"APHIS","comments_url":"https://www.regulations.gov/docketBrowser?rpp=50&so=DESC&sb=postedDate&po=0&dct=PS&D=APHIS-2020-0032","supporting_documents_count":2,"docket_id":"APHIS-2020-0032","document_id":"APHIS-2020-0032-0001","regulation_id_number":null,"title":"LBAM Deregulation for Fruits and Vegetables.","checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2025-01-25T05:01:05Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":92887,"subtype":null,"title":"Deregulation of Light Brown Apple Moth for the Importation of Fruit From New Zealand Into the United States","toc_doc":"Fruit from New Zealand, Deregulation of Light Brown Apple Moth","toc_subject":"Imports","topics":[],"type":"Notice","volume":89}
