Nevada Administrative Code › Chapter 554 - Quarantines of Agricultural Commodities › EXTERIOR QUARANTINE AGAINST EUROPEAN CORN BORER › Inspection, Fumigation or Treatment of Host Plants › Section 554.470 - Procedure for installing duct systems in railway cars or vans

Current through June 11, 2024
1. Lay out the inside probe and duct system
				on top of the load. Insert the probes down the center of the load at 4-foot
				intervals to a depth near the floor. Both end probes must be placed 2 feet from
				the end of the car. Seal the door of the car through which intake and exhaust
				tubes from the blower will connect to the probe-duct system as provided in this
				section.
2. Heavy laminated paper
				must be placed in the doorway on the outer side of the wooden grain door and
				sealed to the doorfacing and doorsill by masking tape. The top edge of this
				paper must be lapped over and fastened to the top edge of the wooden grain
				door. The remainder of the opening must be covered by a paper grain door to the
				ceiling of the car.
3. Loosen the
				wooden grain door and slip the bottom edge of the paper door down so as to
				overlap the paper on the wooden door. Renail the wooden grain door in place.
				Seal this lap of paper grain door to the paper covering on the wooden door
				using masking tape. Nail a 1- by 4-inch plank across the top of the paper grain
				door inside the car, leaving a sufficient edge of paper above the plank to seal
				it with masking tape or "bug" putty. Seal the ends of the paper grain door to
				the inside wall of the car with masking tape. Cut two holes in the paper grain
				door, one with an 8-inch diameter and one with a 6-inch diameter. These holes
				must be cut just above the edge of the wooden grain door so that ducts will
				rest on the top of the wooden grain door. Seal an 8-inch collar inserted
				through the hole through which the exhaust duct may be inserted. Insert the end
				of the inside duct system out through the 6-inch hole so as to protrude about 2
				inches beyond the paper grain door and to which the intake duct from the blower
				may be attached. Close the opposite door and all other apertures in the car and
				seal them with masking tape and "bug" putty so as to make the entire car
				gastight.
4. Connect the intake
				duct from the blower to the end of the inside probe system extending through
				the paper car door. Insert the end of the exhaust duct through the 8-inch
				collar in the paper grain door and seal with masking tape or "bug" putty. Start
				the blower and introduce the required amount of fumigant. Allow the blower to
				operate continuously for at least 10 minutes after the fumigant has been
				discharged. Disconnect the intake and exhaust ducts, seal the openings and
				close the door of the car. Allow the car to remain undisturbed for 16
				hours.
5. "Bug" putty may be
				purchased from fumigant supply companies or may be made from 8 parts asbestos,
				3 parts calcium chloride and 4 parts water.
