Resumen

This Chapter of the California Food and Agricultural Code provides for interstate shipments and pest control. It states that it is unlawful for any person to transport, receive, or import into the state any plant or any thing against which a quarantine has been established, or any plant, unless he does both of the following: (a) notifies the Secretary of the Department of Food and Agriculture of California or the agricultural commissioner of the county in which the plant or thing is received, of the arrival of the plant or thing immediately after its arrival; and (b) holds the plant, or thing for immediate inspection by the secretary or commissioner, without unnecessarily moving it, or placing it where it may be harmful. The secretary may enter into agreements with regulatory officials of other states and the United States Department of Agriculture to provide for the use of various pest risk mitigation measures at the place of origin of the shipment of the plants. The agreement may designate the plants or varieties of plants to which those measures are applied as being commodities that may be released upon arrival at ports of entry or terminals in this state without being held and inspected for compliance with standards and quarantine requirements. The Chapter further provides requirements for markings on shipments to California, disinfection measures in case pest is found, as well as abatement, reshipment, or treatment measures.
