## Abstract

We are amending the pink bollworm regulations by removing the previously regulated area in Poinsett County, AR, from the list of suppressive areas for pink bollworm. We are also removing Arkansas from the list of States quarantined because of the pink bollworm. We are taking this action because trapping surveys show that the pink bollworm no longer exists in this area. This action is necessary to relieve unnecessary restrictions on the interstate movement of regulated articles from the previously regulated area.
