Abstract
We are amending the noxious weed regulations to clearly state that a permit is required for the movement of noxious weeds interstate, as well as into or through the United States. The regulations currently provide for the issuance of permits for movements into or through the United States, but do not explicitly address interstate movements. This action is necessary to help prevent the artificial interstate spread of noxious weeds into noninfested areas of the United States.
