ACP is of particular concern since it 

is a carrier of Huanglongbing disease 

(citrus greening), which is considered to 

be one of the most serious citrus 

diseases in the world. Citrus greening is 

a bacterial disease that attacks the 

vascular system of its host plant, 

causing yellow shoots, blotchy mottling 

and chlorosis, reduced foliage, and tip 

dieback. Citrus greening greatly reduces 

production, destroys the economic 

value of citrus fruit, and can kill trees. 

Once infected, there is no cure for a tree 

with citrus greening. In areas of the 

world where citrus greening is 

established, citrus trees decline and die 

within a few years and may never 

produce usable fruit. 

In addition to transmitting citrus 

greening, ACP can cause economic 

damage to citrus in groves and nurseries 

by direct feeding. Both adults and 

nymphs feed on young foliage, 

depleting the sap and causing galling or 

curling of leaves. Large populations of 

ACP feeding on a citrus shoot can kill 

the growing tip. 

Alternative ACP management options 

include chemical control and the release 

of an alternative biological control 

agent, an encyrtid wasp, 

(Diaphorencyrtus aligarhensis). 

However, these management measures 

can be expensive, temporary, or have 

non-target impacts. Thus, a permit 

application has been submitted to 

APHIS for the purpose of releasing an 

insect, T. radiata, into the continental 

United States for use as a biological 

control agent to reduce the severity of 

ACP infestations. 

APHIS’ review and analysis of the 

proposed action are documented in 

detail in an environmental assessment 

(EA) titled ‘‘Proposed Release of a 

Parasitoid (Tamarixia radiate 

Waterston) for the Biological Control of 

Asian Citrus Psyllid (Diaphorina citri 

Kuwayama) in the Continental United 

States’’ (November 2009). We are making 

the EA available to the public for review 

and comment. We will consider all 

comments that we receive on or before 

the date listed under the heading DATES

at the beginning of this notice. 

The EA may be viewed on the 

Regulations.gov Web site or in our 

reading room (see ADDRESSES above for 

instructions for accessing 

Regulations.gov and information on the 

location and hours of the reading room). 

You may request paper copies of the EA 

by calling or writing to the person listed 

under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT. Please refer to the title of the 

EA when requesting copies. 

The EA has been prepared in 

accordance with: (1) The National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 

(NEPA), as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et 

seq.), (2) regulations of the Council on 

Environmental Quality for 

implementing the procedural provisions 

of NEPA (40 CFR parts 1500-1508), (3) 

USDA regulations implementing NEPA 

(7 CFR part 1b), and (4) APHIS’ NEPA 

Implementing Procedures (7 CFR part 

372).
