TO APPROVE REGULATIONS OF THE CLEMSON UNIVERSITY, STATE CROP PEST COMMISSION, RELATING TO PLUM POX VIRUS QUARANTINE, DESIGNATED AS REGULATION DOCUMENT NUMBER 4001, PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 1, CHAPTER 23, TITLE 1 OF THE 1976 CODE.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. The regulations of the Clemson University, State Crop Pest Commission, relating to Plum Pox Virus Quarantine, designated as Regulation Document Number 4001, and submitted to the General Assembly pursuant to the provisions of Article 1, Chapter 23, Title 1 of the 1976 Code, are approved.
SECTION 2. This joint resolution takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
Plum Pox Virus has been reported in the United States. It is a systemic disease of plants which, once established, may be controlled only by complete destructions of the plant. The virus may pose a serious threat to the State's stone fruit industry. The proposed amendments will focus on the most effective method of preventing the introduction of the disease into the State by giving greater effect to state and federal quarantines at point-of-origin.
