Regulation 8 — Notice of Shipment by 

 Permittee 



Immediately upon the entry and before 

 removal from the port of entry of nursery 

 stock, for each separate shipment or con- 

 signment thereof, the permittee shall notify 

 the Secretary of Agriculture through the 

 collector of customs where entry is made on 

 forms provided for that purpose, stating the 

 number of permit, the general nature and 

 quality of the nursery stock, the country and 

 locality where grown, the date of entry, and 

 the name and address of the consignee to 

 whom it is proposed to forward the nursery 

 stock, together with the probable date of 

 delivery for transportation. 



At the same time a copy of the notice to 

 the Secretary of Agriculture shall be sent 

 by the permittee to the duly authorized in- 

 spector or other officer of the State, Terri- 

 tory, or District to which the nursery stock 

 is to be shipped. Lists of such inspectors 

 and officers may be obtained on application 

 to the collector of customs or the Federal 

 Horticultural Board, Washington, D. C. 



Permits may be canceled and further per- 

 mits refused if a permittee fails to give 

 either of said notices, or gives a false no- 

 tice, or knowingly mislabels any nursery 

 stock with intent to evade any provision 

 of the plant quarantine act or of any regu- 

 lation thereunder. 



Should a consignee named in such a notice 

 ship or deliver for shipment to any other 

 State, Territory, or District such nursery 

 stock before it has been inspected by a duly 

 authorized State, Territorial, or District in- 

 spector or offic er, he shall prior to such 

 shipment give like notice to the Secretary 

 of Agriculture and to the duly authorized 

 inspector or other officer of the State, Ter- 

 ritory, or District to which the nursery stock 

 is to be reshipped. 



Imported nursery stock which has been 

 once inspected will be allowed to move in- 

 terstate without restrictions other than
