Plants for Planting Whose Importation Is Not Authorized Pending Pest Risk Analysis; Notice of Availability of Data Sheets for Taxa of Plants for Planting That Are Quarantine Pests for Hosts of Quarantine Pests

We are advising the public that we have determined that 41 taxa of plants for planting are quarantine pests and 107 taxa of plants for planting are hosts of 13 quarantine pests and therefore should be added to our lists of taxa of plants for planting whose importation is not authorized pending pest risk analysis.  We have prepared data sheets that detail the scientific evidence we evaluated in making the determination that the taxa are quarantine pests or host of quarantine pests.  We are making these data sheets available to the public for  review and comment.

We will consider all comments that we receive on or before September 26, 2011.  For additional information go to:
