Section 27-56.3 - Conditions Governing the Movement of Regulated Articles

A. Certificate is required. Unless exempted in a regulation supplemental hereto, a certificate shall accompany the movement of regulated articles from any regulated area into or through any point outside thereof, except that, regulated articles originating outside of a regulated area moving through a regulated area to other nonregulated areas may be moved without a certificate or permit if the point of origin is clearly indicated on the shipping document accompanying the regulated articles and they are protected from infestation while within regulated areas, to the satisfaction of an inspector.

B. Attachment of certificates. When certificates are required, they shall be securely attached to the outside of the container in which the articles are moved except where the certificate is attached to the shipping document and the regulated articles are adequately described in the shipping document or on the certificate, the attachment of the certificate to each of the containers is not required. Tractors and other slow-moving farm equipment do not require attachment of certificates if traveling within a 25-mile radius of main farm.

C. Issuance of certificates. Certificates may be issued by an inspector if the regulated articles:

(1) Have originated in non-infested areas in the quarantined area and have not been exposed to infestation while within the quarantined area; or

(2) Have been treated to destroy infestation in accordance with approved procedures thereof; or

(3) Have been grown, harvested, manufactured, stored or handled in such manner that no infestation would be transmitted thereby.

D. Requirements under other applicable quarantines must also be met.
