QUARANTINES AND REGULATIONS AFFECTING INTERSTATE SHIPMENTS 
GEORGIA 
The information contained in thi 3 summary was compiled from material 
received from the plant quarantine official of Georgia and has "been ap- 
proved by him. It is issued for the convenience of plant quarantine in- 
spectors, shippers, transportation agents, truckers, and othersconcerned 
in the interstate movement of plants, plant products, and other materials 
subject to State regulation on account of plant pests. 
The summary for Georgia gives the general requirements for shipping 
nursery stock into that State, as well as digests of the State plant quar- 
antines and regulations affecting interstate shipments. An appendix fur- 
nishes information on post-office requirement's for mailing plants as' well 
as terminal-inspection procedure. This summary does not include digests 
of nursery-stock or plant- quarantine requirements relating to the movement 
of plants entirely within the State. 
The information contained in this circular is believed to be correct 
and complete up to the time of preparation, but it is not intended to be 
used independently of or as a substitute for the original texts of the 
regulations and quarantines, ani it is not to be interpreted as legally 
authoritative. For detailed information address the Director of 
Entomology, State Capitol, Atlanta 3» Georgia. 
In addition to State requirements, shippers will need to take into 
consideration applicable plant quarantines of the United States Department 
of Agriculture. In most instances those quarantines regulate the inter- 
state movement of specified plants, plant products, and other articles 
from designated regulated areas. However, some of these quarantines regu- 
late the interstate movement of certain articles into designated protected 
areas. Copies of such quarantines may be obtained from the Bureau of 
Entomology and Plant Quarantine, Washington 25, D. C.
