## Abstract

We are amending the Asian longhorned beetle regulations by expanding the quarantined areas in the State of New York to include new areas in New York City and in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. As a result of this action, the interstate movement of regulated articles from those areas are restricted. This action is necessary on an emergency basis to prevent the artificial spread of the Asian longhorned beetle to noninfested areas of the United States.
