Importation of Blueberries From South Africa, Uruguay, and 
Argentina With Cold Treatment; Correction

AGENCY: Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, USDA.

ACTION: Proposed rule; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: We are correcting an error in our proposed rule to amend the 
regulations to allow the importation into the continental United States 
of fresh blueberries from South Africa and Uruguay under certain 
conditions and to allow the use of cold treatment for blueberries 
imported into the United States from Argentina. The proposed rule was 
published in the Federal Register on June 5, 2007 (72 FR 30979-30984, 
Docket No. APHIS 2007-0061).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Tony Rom[aacute]n, Import 
Specialist, Commodity Import Analysis and Operation Staff, PPQ, APHIS, 
4700 River Road Unit 133, Riverdale, MD 20737-1231; (301) 734-8758.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On June 5, 2007, we published in the Federal 
Register (72 FR 30979-30984, Docket No. APHIS-2007-0061) a proposed 
rule to allow the importation into the continental United States of 
fresh blueberries from South Africa and Uruguay under certain 
conditions. As a condition of entry, the blueberries would have to 
undergo cold treatment and would have to be accompanied by a 
phytosanitary certificate issued by the national plant protection 
organization (NPPO) of the exporting country. In addition, we also 
proposed to allow the use of cold treatment for blueberries imported 
into the United States from Argentina.
    In two places in the Supplementary Information section of the 
proposed rule and in one place in the regulatory text, we stated that 
we would require shipments of blueberries from South Africa and Uruguay 
to be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate issued by the NPPO of 
the importing country. This information was incorrect. We should have 
stated that we would require shipments of blueberries from South Africa 
and Uruguay to be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate issued by 
the NPPO of the exporting country. This document corrects those errors.

Correction

    In FR Doc. E7-10818, published on June 5, 2007 (72 FR 30979-30984) 
make the following corrections: On page 30980, first column, fourteenth 
line following the second table; on page 30981, first column, tenth 
line; and on page 30984, first column, in proposed Sec.  319.56-2vv(b), 
correct ``importing'' to read ``exporting''.

    Done in Washington, DC, this 11th day of June 2007.

Acting Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
