Abstract
We are amending the Oriental fruit fly regulations by quarantining a portion of Los Angeles and Orange Counties, CA, and restricting the interstate movement of regulated articles from the quarantined area. This action is necessary on an emergency basis to prevent the spread of Oriental fruit fly into noninfested areas of the United States.
