(e) No restrictions are placed on the interstate movement of commercially 
packed apples or commercially packed peaches in any quantity, e»xcept those 
moving via refrigerator cars or motortrucks from the area listed in paragraph 
(1) of this regulation. 
(2) No restrictions are placed on the interstate shipment from the regulated 
areas of fruits and vegetables other than those mentioned above except that any 
such interstate shipments of fruits and vegetables may be inspected at any time 
or place inside or outside the regulated areas and when actually found to involve 
danger of dissemination of Japanese beetle to uninfested localities, measures to 
eliminate infestation may be required as a condition of further transportation 
or delivery. 
B. Conditions of certification. — Certificates may be issued for the interstate 
movement of fruits and vegetables to points outside the regulated areas between 
June 15 and October 15, inclusive, under one of the following conditions : 
(3) When the fruits and vegetables, moving from a point in the regulated 
area other than that specified in paragraph (1) of this regulation, or moving 
from such designated area other than by refrigerator car, have actually been 
inspected by the United States Department of Agriculture and found free from 
infestation. The number of inspection points for such certification will be 
limited and their location determined by shipping needs and further conditioned 
on the establishment at such points of provisions satisfactory to the inspector for 
the handling and safeguarding of such shipments during inspection. Such 
inspection may be discontinued and certification withheld by the inspector during 
periods of general or unusual flight of the beetles. 
(4) When the fruits and vegetables have been handled or treated under the 
observation of an inspector in manner and by method to free them from any 
infestation. 
(5) When the fruits and vegetables have originated outside of the regulated 
areas and are to be reshipped directly from freight yards, transfer points, or 
unloading docks within such areas, under provisions satisfactory to the inspector 
for safeguarding of such shipments pending certification and reshipment. Cer- 
tificates on this basis will be issued without inspection only in cases where, in 
the judgment of the inspector, the shipments concerned have not been exposed 
to infestation while within such freight yards, transfer points, or unloading 
docks. 
(6) When the fruits and vegetables were grown in districts where the fact 
has been established to the satisfaction of the inspector that no infestation 
exists and are to be shipped directly from the farms where grown to points 
outside the regulated areas, or are shipped from infested districts where the fact 
has been established to the satisfaction of the inspector that the Japanese beetle 
has not begun or has ceased its flight. 
(7) When the fruits and vegetables moving via refrigerator car from the area 
listed in paragraph (1) of this regulation, have been inspected and loaded in a 
manner to prevent infestation, in a refrigerator car with closed or adequately 
screened, doors and hatches, which car prior to loading has been determined by 
an inspector as fumigated or thoroughly swept and cleaned by the common 
carrier in a manner to rid it of infestation. During the interval between fumiga- 
tion or cleaning and loading such refrigerator car must be tightly closed and 
sealed. 
(8) When the fruits and vegetables moving via refrigerator car from the area 
listed in this regulation have been fumigated in the car, when deemed necessary 
in the judgment of the inspector, and when the doors and hatches of the car have 
been tightly closed or adequately screened under the supervision of an inspector. 2 
Regulation 6 
Sec. 301.48-6. Restrictions on the movement of nursery and ornamental 
stock. — A. Control of movement. — Nursery and ornamental stock as defined in 
regulation 1 (sec. 301.48-1) shall not be moved or allowed to be moved interstate 
from the regulated areas to or through any point outside thereof, unless a cer- 
tificate or permit shall have been issued therefor by the inspector, except as 
follows : 
(1) The following articles, because of their growth or production, or their 
manufactured or processed condition, are considered innocuous as carriers of 
infestation and are therefore exempt from the requirements of certification:
