Asian Citrus Psyllid
State
Interior Quarantine
A. Pest.
A quarantine is
established against the following pest, its hosts, and possible carriers:
(a) Asian
Citrus Psyllid (Diaphorina citri).
B.
Area Under Quarantine.
(1) A county or portion thereof shall be included in an
appropriate host nursery stock regional quarantine zone and bulk citrus
regional quarantine zone when survey results indicate an infestation is
present or not, and the Department has evaluated the county based on the pest
risk factors in Subsection (b)(2), or the local
California County Agricultural Commissioner(s) is notified and requests the
county be included into a regional quarantine zone. The Department shall also
issue electronic and/or written notification of the regional quarantine zone
designation(s) to other California County Agricultural Commissioners and
other interested or affected parties and post notification of the designation
to its website at: https://www.cdfa.ca.gov/plant/acp/regulation.html.
The notification shall include a web link to a map of the host
nursery stock regional quarantine zones and bulk citrus regional quarantine
zones, a list of the counties or portions thereof in each regional quarantine
zone, a written description of the Departments evaluation of the pest risk
factors associated with the county or portion thereof, and instructions on
the process to appeal the designation of a county or portion thereof into a
regional quarantine zone. Automatic
notifications of any changes in regional quarantine zone designations will be
available through a list serve option. Any individual or local entity may
appeal the designation of a county or portion thereof into a regional
quarantine zone by submission to the Department of a written request for
review of the designation accompanied by clear and convincing evidence
justifying a change in the designation. The appeal must be filed no later
than ten (10) working days following issuance of the notice of designation by
the Department. The Department must respond with a written decision no later
than ten (10) working days following receipt of the appeal. During the
pending of the appeal, the designation under appeal shall remain in effect.
(2) A county or a portion thereof shall be included in a regional
quarantine zone based upon a combination of the following pest risk factors:
(A) The
level of Asian citrus psyllid infestation
1.
Generally Infested Regions are counties or parts of counties where multiple asian citrus psyllids are routinely detected throughout
the area and during every survey period.
2.
Partially Infested Regions are counties or parts of counties where asian citrus psyllids have been detected, but are not routinely
detected throughout the area or during every survey period
3.
Uninfested Regions are counties or parts of
counties where asian citrus psyllids have not been detected
(B) The
presence of or proximity to Huanglongbing disease
detections
(C) The
proximity to the United States/Mexico border
(D)
Geographical barriers to the natural movement of ACP, such as mountains or
host-free areas
(E)
Contains a commercial citrus growing region
(F) Whether sufficient citrus
commodity cleaning and packing capacity is available to process the majority
of citrus grown in a region, as determined by the Department in consultation
with citrus industry experts knowledgeable
in citrus variety, acreage increase or decrease trends, historical production
volumes for different regions, and
volume capability of cleaning and packing capacity in different regions.
(3) The following Host Nursery Stock Regional Quarantine zones and Bulk
Citrus Regional Quarantine zones will be designated to restrict movement of
Asian citrus psyllid host material.
Nursery Stock Regional Quarantine Zone 1 comprises uninfested counties, geographical barriers exist between
it and Zone 3, and it is not proximate to the border with Mexico.
