SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED

BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

The State Crop Pest Commission has previously designated the Light Brown Apple Moth (LBAM) (Epiphyas postvittana) as a plant pest. The proposed quarantine will focus on the most effective method of preventing the introduction of the pest into the State by giving greater effect to state and federal quarantines at point of origin.

The Notice of Drafting was published in the South Carolina State Register on September 26, 2008.
