Abstract
We are amending the Fruits and Vegetables regulations to allow oranges, lemons, limes, mandarins, and grapefruit from the Riverina and Sunraysia districts of Australia to be imported into the United States. We are taking this action because we have determined that the citrus may be imported without presenting a significant risk of introducing injurious plant pests into the United States. This rule provides importers and consumers in the United States with an additional source of citrus fruit.
