Abstract
We are amending the fruits and vegetables regulations to declare certain areas in the Mexican States of Baja California Sur, Chihuahua, and Sonora as fruit-fly-free areas. We are taking this action based on our determination that these areas meet our criteria for pest-free areas with regard to fruit flies. This action relieves restrictions on the importation of certain fruits from those areas while continuing to prevent the introduction of plant pests into the United States.
