Draft Pest Risk Assessment Available for Review and Comment: Fresh Melons from Colombia
The Republic of Colombia has requested the U.S. to allow fresh melon fruit, Cucumis melo L., including cantaloupe (C. melo var. reticulatus) and honeydew (C. melo var. inodorus), to be imported into the continental United States. USDA/APHIS’ Center for Plant Health Science and Technology has drafted a pathway-initiated risk analysis for this request, and the draft document is available for 30 days for stakeholders to review and provide comments.
The document and instructions for submitting comments may be accessed through the APHIS Plant Import Information web page, or this link: http://www.aphis.usda.gov/import_export/plants/plant_imports/process/stakeholder_consultation.shtml
