 MEXICAN FRUITELY REGULATIONS MODIFIED 
 
 Introductory Note 
 
 The following administrative instructions lift all permit re- 
 quirements relative to interstate movement of regulated citrus fruits 
 from the area regulated on account of the Mexican fruitfly until 
 notice is given that the status of fruitfly infestations in the regu- 
 lated areas as determined by inspections and surveys make it necessary 
 for such permit requirements to be imposed. This action which lessens 
 the requirements of the regulations will not lessen the protection to 
 uninfested areas. This modification is believed safe because in- 
 tensive inspections over a number of years have shown that infesta- 
 tions do not occur during the early part of the harvesting and shipping 
 season. 
 
 i 301. 6U— 3 Administrative instructions lifting permit require- 
 ments for interstate movement of citrus fruits until further notice. — 
 Pursuant to the authority conferred upon the Chief of the Bureau of 
 Entomology and Plant Quarantine in the proviso of i 3d* 64-3 ( a ) 
 of Notice of Quarantine No. 64 on account of the Mexican fruitfly, 
 he has determined that natural conditions exist with respect to the 
 regulated area which eliminate the risk of Mexican fruitfly infes- 
 tations in regulated citrus fruits during the early part of the 
 shipping season; accordingly all permit requirements for interstate 
 movement of such fruits are hereby waived for the entire regulated 
 area until due notice of the resumption of permit requirements has 
 been given.
