The U.S. Department of
Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS)
is amending the Karnal bunt regulations to remove certain areas
or fields in Riverside County, Calif., from the list of
regulated areas based on its determination that those areas or
fields meet APHIS’ criteria for release from regulation of
Karnal bunt, a fungal disease of wheat. This action will relieve
restrictions on certain areas or fields that are no longer
necessary.
Notice of this interim rule is scheduled to be published in the
June 4 Federal Register and becomes effective upon publication.
