3.0 Introduction

Epiphyas postvittana, the light brown apple moth, is a pest native to Australia that affects many different plant species, including several economically important crops. As it is a leafroller, even superficial damage can downgrade the value of fruits, vegetables, plants for planting and cut flowers; seedlings may be destroyed, stunted or deformed. If introduced to Canada, E. postvittana could become established in parts of southwestern British Columbia, as well as in greenhouses and other protected environments. Canada's export trade to countries that regulate this pest would also be affected.

Epiphyas postvittana is present in several countries and can be transported on various types of material (e.g. fruits, plants, cut flowers). The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has developed phytosanitary import requirements to prevent the introduction of this pest to Canada on these commodities.

The requirements for material imported from the United States have been developed to complement the domestic movement requirements established in the "Federal Domestic Quarantine Order: Epiphyas postvittana (Light Brown Apple Moth)", published by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

4.0 Scope

4.1 Regulated pests

Epiphyas postvittana (Walker), light brown apple moth

See the List of pests regulated by Canada.

Note

All articles imported into Canada must be free from all quarantine pests of Canada. The CFIA may take action on articles found to be infested with pests of potential quarantine concern even if they are not yet included on this list.

4.2 Regulated articles

4.3 Articles outside the scope of this directive

Note

Requirements for these articles may exist in other directives. Please consult the list of all Plant Health directives or the CFIA's Automated Import Reference System (AIRS) for more information.

4.4 Regulated areas

Appendix 2 contains the list of areas regulated for E. postvittana. This information is subject to change at any time without notice.

5.0 Specific requirements

If a given commodity from a given origin is not listed below, there are either no requirements specifically related to E. postvittana or the commodity has not yet been assessed from the origin. This directive describes only the phytosanitary requirements related to E. postvittana. Other requirements may apply. Please refer to the CFIA's Automated Import Reference System (AIRS) or contact the CFIA for details.

5.1 Countries other than the United States

5.2.2 California

5.2.2.1 Regulated areas

Requirements for California depend on where the material originates. Certain areas within California have been placed under quarantine for E. postvittana by the USDA. The borders of these quarantine areas do not follow the borders of California's counties. There are therefore certain counties which contain both areas under quarantine and areas not under quarantine. If any portion of a county is under quarantine, the county is considered regulated for E. postvittana. If no portion of a county is under quarantine, the county is considered non-regulated for E. postvittana, though some requirements may still apply. The table in Section 5.2.2.3 describes the requirements for each of these origins.

Appendix 2 provides the list of regulated counties.

5.2.2.2 Certificate of Origin

Regulated material originating from non-regulated counties may need to be accompanied by a Certificate of Origin (see Appendix 3) to demonstrate that the material does not originate from a regulated county. The table in Section 5.2.2.3 specifies the situations in which a Certificate of Origin is required.

The Certificate of Origin is to be completed by the producer and used only for export of regulated taxa from counties that are not regulated for E. postvittana. A Certificate of Origin listing a regulated county constitutes a non-compliance, as material from a regulated county must be accompanied by a Phytosanitary Certificate rather than a Certificate of Origin.

5.2.2.3 Requirements
Note
  • Regulated commodities entering British Columbia in transit to out of province destinations must remain unopened and must transit BC directly and expeditiously to the destination province.
  • The following requirements apply only for E. postvittana host species as per Appendix 1.
  • See Appendix 2 for the list of regulated counties and Appendix 3 for the Certificate of Origin.
  • ISPM No. 10 refers to the International Plant Protection Convention's International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures No. 10: Requirements for the establishment of pest-free places of production and pest-free production sites.

6.0 Non-compliance

Imported articles may be inspected by the CFIA and must meet all requirements when reaching their first point of arrival in Canada. Articles that are found to be infested with pests of quarantine concern or are otherwise non-compliant will be refused entry to Canada, and may be ordered removed from the country or destroyed. Infested articles may be ordered treated prior to disposal to prevent the spread of pests.

The importer is responsible for all costs relating to treatment, disposal or removal of the articles, including costs incurred by the CFIA to monitor the action taken.

The CFIA will advise the National Plant Protection Organization of the country of origin and/or re-export of any non-compliance as per directive D-01-06: Canadian phytosanitary policy for the notification of non-compliance and emergency action.

Appendix 3: Certificate of Origin for commodities regulated for Epiphyas postvittana (light brown apple moth) from non-regulated counties of California

Regulated material originating from non-regulated counties of California may need to be accompanied by a Certificate of Origin to demonstrate that the material does not originate from a regulated county. The table in Section 5.2.2.3 of D-07-03 specifies the situations in which a Certificate of Origin is required. See Appendix 1 of D-07-03 for the list of regulated taxa and Appendix 2 for the list of regulated counties.

The Certificate of Origin is to be completed by the producer and used only for export of regulated taxa from counties that are not regulated for E. postvittana.

A Certificate of Origin listing a regulated county constitutes a non-compliance, as regulated material from a regulated county must be accompanied by a Phytosanitary Certificate rather than a Certificate of Origin.

Certificate of Origin
