 2    EXPLANATION OF PEST CATEGORIES  
 
MPI has categorised  organisms associated with pl ants and pl ant produ cts into regulated and non -
regulated or ganisms as described below.  Organisms (including weeds) associated with each 
commodity w ill appear on a separate pest list which will be attached to each import health 
standard as an Appendix.  
 
2.1    REGULAT ED ORGANI SMS  
 
Regulated organisms are those org anisms for which phytosanitary actions would be undertaken if 
they were interc epted/detec ted.  These will include new organisms as defined by the Hazardous 
Substances and New Organisms Act 1996.  R egulated org anisms ar e sub -divided into the 
following group s: 
 
2.1.1    Quarantine: Risk group 1 pests  
 
Risk group 1 pests are those regu lated pests  (FAO Glossary of Phytosanitary Terms, 1996) which 
on introduction into New Zealand could cause unacceptable  economic im pacts on the prod uction 
of a commodity/commodit ies and/or the environment.  
 
2.1.2    Quarantine: Risk group 2 pests  
 
Risk gro up 2 pests are those regulated pests which on introduction into New Zealand could cause 
a major disruption to market ac cess (some i mporting countrie s require specific pre -export 
phytosanitary treatments) and/or significant economic impacts on the productio n of a part icular 
commodity/commodities and/or the environment.  
 
2.1.3    Quarantine: Risk group 3 pests  
  
Risk group 3  pests ( e.g. economic ally significant species of fruit flie s) are those regulated pests 
which on entry into New Zealand would cause a maj or disru ption to market access for a wide 
range of New Zealand commodities and/or have significant economic impacts on their produc tion 
and/or the environment (some importing cou ntries prohibit the entry of the host commodity).  An 
official surveillance sy stem is required for such pests in New Zealand.  
 
2.1.4    Regulated non -quarantine pests  
 
A regulated non -quarantine  pest (denoted by "reg."  on the pest list) is a pest whose pre sence in a 
consignment of plants for planting, affects the intended use of tho se plant s with an economically 
unacceptable impact and is therefore regulated within the territory of the importing contracting 
party (Revis ed IP PC definition, Rome 1997).  These  pests would be under official control by the 
use of a Government operated or audited certification scheme.  
 
2.1.5    Regulated non plant pests  
 
Regulated non plant pests are those organisms whi ch, although no t pests o f plants or plant 
products, may be ass ociated with plants or plant products in international trade, and may have an 
affect o n human or animal health ( e.g. black widow spider) and thus fall under the jurisdiction of 
other New Zeal and government dep artments.   The categorisation of these organism s and their 
associated import restrictions will be applied in accordance with the requirements of the relevant 
departments.

(Biosecurity Act 1993)   Page 3 of 17 
 2.1.6    Vectors of associated quarantine pests  
 
In the context of  this import healt h standar d, vectors are those organisms which a re able to 
transmit regulated pests into New Zealand.  To prevent the transmis sion of vectored quarantine 
organisms to susceptible commodities in New Zealand, it is necessary to prevent the e ntry of their 
vectors.  Vec tors (denoted by "vect." on the pest l ist) will be categorised as risk group 1 even if 
they are present in New Zeala nd, unless they are risk group 2 pests in their own right.  If the 
vectored organism is not present in the export ing country then t he associ ated vector(s), if present 
in New Zeal and, will be categorised as a non -regulated non -quarantine pest(s).  
 
2.1.7    Vectored organisms  
 
Vectored organisms (denoted by "VO" on the pest list) are those quarantine pests that are abl e to 
enter New Zea land via a vector associated with the imported commodity.  
 
2.1.8    Strains of pests  
 
Where there is documented evidence that  a pest associated with the imported commodity  has a 
different host range, different pesticide resistance, vecto rs a different rang e of orga nisms, or is 
more virulent than that o f the same species present in New Zealand,  then the different strain 
(denoted by "strain" on the pest list) of that pest will be categorised accordingly as a risk group 1 
or 2 regulated pes t. 
 
2.1.9    Unident ifiable o rganisms 
 
Should identification of an organism not be possible within the required time frame, the organism 
will be categorised as a regulated pest (either risk groups 1, 2, or 3) until such time as shown 
otherwise.  
 
2.1.10    Unlisted organisms  
 
Should an  organism be intercepted that is not i ncluded on the pest list for that commodity, it will 
be categorised into the a ppropriate risk group and action taken accordingly.  
 
2.2    NON -REGULATED ORGANISMS  
 
Non-regulated organisms ar e those organisms fo r which p hytosanitary actions would not be 
unde rtaken if they were intercepted/detected.  These would include new organisms w hich could 
not establish in New Zealand.  Non -regulated organisms are sub -divided into the following 
groups:  
2.2.1    Non -regulated  non-quar antine pests  
 
Non-regulated non -quara ntine pests are either already present in New Zealand and are not under 
offici al control or, could not establish in New Zealand.  
 
2.2.2    Non -regulated non plant pests /organisms  
 
Non-regul ated non plant pests /organism s are not pests of plants and are not of concern to MPI or 
any other New Zealand government department.  
 
2.3    CON TAMINANTS (INCLUDING SOIL)  
    IHS Fresh Fruit/Vegetables.  Korean pear, Pyrus pyrifol ia from the Repu blic of Korea  Date 
(Biosecurity Act 1993)   Page 4 of 17 
 Consignments  contaminated with soil, or o ther potential carriers of regulated pests ( e.g. leaf 
litter) will n ot be permitted entry if the level of contamination is above the acceptable tolerance.  
 
3    APPLICATION OF PHYTOSAN ITARY MEASURES  
 
A number of different ph ytosanitary measures may be a pplied to pests in each risk group, 
depending on the commodity  and the type of pest.  These measures include:  
 
3.1    QUARA NTINE: RISK GROUP 1 PESTS  
 
Phytosanitary measures required for r isk group 1 pests may include:  
 
- inspec tion and phytosanitary certif ication of the consignment according to appropriate 
procedures  by the n ational plant protection organisation of the exporti ng country,  
- testing prior to export for regulated pests which cannot be readily detected by inspection  
(e.g. viruses on propagat ing material from accredited facilities), and verified by an 
additional de claration, to that given on the phytos anitary cer tificate,  
-  inspection/testing of the consignment by MPI prior  to biosecurity clearance, to ensure 
the specified pest tolerance has not been exceeded.  
 
3.2    QUARANTINE: RISK GRO UP 2 PESTS  
 
Phytos anitary m easures required for risk group 2 pest s may include all the requirements  for risk 
group 1 pests and m ay also require  pre-export pest control activities to be undertaken by the 
contracting party  and confirmed by additional decla rations to the phyto sanitary certificate.  
 
3.3    QUARANTINE: RISK GROUP 3 PESTS  
 
Phytosanitary meas ures applied to risk group 3 pests may includ e all the requirements for risk 
group 1 pests plus:  
 
- the application of a pre -export treatment which has bee n developed in accord ance with  
an approved MPI standar d, 
- an offici al bilateral quarantine arrangement between MPI and the Republic of Korea 
national plant protection organisation which includes descri ptions  of each approved 
treatment system(s),  
- specific additional declarat ions on t he phytosanitary certificate.

(Biosecurity Act 1993)   Page 5 of 17 
 3.4    REGULATED NON -QUARANTINE PESTS  
 
Phytosa nitary measures applied to regulated n on-quarantine pests will generally be the same as 
for ri sk group 1 pests, or accordin g to the contingencies implemented for that pe st if det ected in 
New Zealand.  
 
3.5    NON -REGU LATED NON -QUARANTINE PESTS  
 
No phytosani tary measures are applied to non -regul ated non -quarantine pests.  
 
4    GENERAL CONDITIONS FOR FRESH FRUIT/VEGETABLES  
 
Comm odity sub -class: fresh fruit/vegetables includ es fresh fruit and vegetables for consumption.  
 
Only inert /synthetic material may be us ed for the protection, packaging and s hipping materials of 
fresh fruit/vegetables . 
 
All host m aterial (fruit/vegetables) of  fruit fly species (Diptera: Tephritidae) of e conomic 
significance shall only be imported und er the terms of a bilateral quarantine a rrangement (e.g.

5.2    TRANSIT REQUIREMENTS  
 
The Korea n pear must be packed and shipped in a man ner to prevent co ntamination by regulated 
pests.  
 
The package should not be opened in tr ansit.  H owever, where a consignment is either stored, 
split up or has its packaging changed while in another country (or coun tries) en route  to New 
Zealand, a "Re -expo rt Certificate" i s required.  Where a consignment is held under bond, as a 
result of the  need to change conveyances, and it is kept in the original shipping container, a "Re -
export Certificate" is not required.  
 
5.3    INSPECTION ON ARRIVAL  
 
MPI will check the accompanying documentation on arrival to confirm that it reconciles with the 
actual  consignm ent.  
 
MPI requires, wit h 95% confidence, that not more than 0.5% of the units (for Korean pear, a unit 
is one fruit)  in a consignment are infested with visually detectable quarantine pests.  To achieve 
this, MPI will sample and inspect 600 units with an a cceptance level of zero infested units  (or 
equivalent), from the (homogeneous) lot.  
 
5.4    BIOSECURITY/QUARANTINE DI RECTIVE  
 
The commodity may be directed to a facility for furt her treatment if required.
