## Abstract

We are adopting as a final rule, without change, an interim rule that amended the regulations by adding portions of Hendry and Hillsborough Counties, FL, to the list of quarantined areas and by expanding the boundaries of the quarantined areas in Broward, Collier, Dade, and Manatee Counties, FL, due to detections of citrus canker in these areas. The interim rule imposed restrictions on the interstate movement of regulated articles from and through the quarantined areas and was necessary to prevent the spread of citrus canker into noninfested areas of the United States.
