SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The pale cyst nematode (PCN, 

Globodera pallida) is a major pest of 

potato crops in cool-temperature areas. 

Other solanaceous hosts include 

tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, tomatillos, 

and some weeds. The PCN is thought to 

have originated in Peru and is now 

widely distributed in many potatogrowing regions of the world. PCN 

infestations may be expressed as 

patches of poor growth. Affected potato 

plants may exhibit yellowing, wilting, 

or death of foliage. Even with only 

minor symptoms on the foliage, potato 

tuber size can be affected. Unmanaged 

infestations can cause potato yield loss 

ranging from 20 to 70 percent. The 

spread of this pest in the United States 

could result in a loss of domestic or 

foreign markets for U.S. potatoes and 

other commodities. 

In 7 CFR part 301, the PCN quarantine 

regulations (§§ 301.86 through 301.86-9, 

referred to below as the regulations) set 

out procedures for determining the areas 

quarantined for PCN and impose 

restrictions on the interstate movement 

of regulated articles from quarantined 

areas. 

Section 301.86-3 of the regulations 

sets out the procedures for determining 

the areas quarantined for PCN. 

Paragraph (a) of § 301.86-3 states that, in 

accordance with the criteria listed in 

§ 301.86-3(c), the Administrator will 

designate as a quarantined area each 

field that has been found to be infested 

with PCN, each field that has been 

found to be associated with an infested 

field, and any area that the 

Administrator considers necessary to 

quarantine because of its inseparability 

for quarantine enforcement purposes 

from infested or associated fields. 

Paragraph (d) provides for the 

removal of fields from quarantine. An 

infested field will be removed from 

quarantine when a protocol approved by 

the Administrator as sufficient to 

support the removal of infested fields 

from quarantine has been completed 

and the field has been found to be free 

of PCN. An associated field will be 

removed from quarantine when the field 

has been found to be free of PCN 

according to a protocol approved by the 

Administrator as sufficient to support 

removal of associated fields from 

quarantine. Any area other than infested 

or associated fields that has been 

quarantined by the Administrator 

because of its inseparability for 

quarantine enforcement purposes from 

infested or associated fields will be 

removed from quarantine when the 

relevant infested or associated fields are 

removed from quarantine. 

Paragraph (a) of § 301.86-3 further 

provides that the Administrator will 

publish a description of the quarantined 

area on the Plant Protection and 

Quarantine (PPQ) Web site, (http:// 

www.aphis.usda.gov/plant_health/ 

plant_pest_info/potato/pcn.shtml). The 

description of the quarantined area will 

include the date the description was last 

updated and a description of the 

changes that have been made to the 

quarantined area. The description of the 

quarantined area may also be obtained 

by request from any local office of PPQ; 

local offices are listed in telephone 

directories. Finally, paragraph (a) 

establishes that, after a change is made 

to the quarantined area, we will publish 

a notice in the Federal Register 

informing the public that the change has 

occurred and describing the change to 

the quarantined area. 

Therefore, we are publishing this 

notice to inform the public of changes 

to the PCN quarantined area in the State 

of Idaho. The changes are as follows: 

∑ On April 26, 2010, we updated the 

quarantined area to remove 149.56 

acres from Bingham County and 59.48 

acres from Bonneville County. 

This acreage consisted of associated 

fields that were found to be free of PCN 

according to a survey protocol approved 

by the Administrator in accordance with 

§ 301.86-3 as sufficient to support 

removal of associated fields from 

quarantine. 

The current map of the quarantined 

area can be viewed on the PPQ Web site 

at (http://www.aphis.usda.gov/plant_

health/plant_pest_info/potato/

pcn.shtml).

7786; 7 CFR 2.22, 2.80, and 371.3.
