Notice of Establishment of a New Plant Protection and Quarantine
Stakeholder Registry
AGENCY: Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This notice announces the availability of a new Plant
Protection and Quarantine email subscription service and advises
current subscribers on how to continue receiving emails on topics of
interest.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For information on the PPQ Stakeholder
Registry, contact Ms. Donna L. West, Senior Import Specialist,
Regulatory Coordination and Compliance, PPQ, APHIS, 4700 River Road
Unit 133, Riverdale, MD 20737; (301) 734-0627.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ)
stakeholder registry is an email subscription service that allows
individuals to receive information about PPQ activities on a variety of
plant health topics. PPQ has redesigned the registry to enable PPQ to
more effectively communicate urgent messages to the public and keep the
public informed on day-to-day activities. Current subscribers will need
to subscribe to the new PPQ Stakeholder Registry in order to continue
receiving emails on PPQ-related topics.
Subscribers will be able to choose from an array of PPQ topics such
as PPQ hot issues, Federal notices, irradiation programs, foreign pests
and diseases, plant pest programs, and updates to manuals and the
Fruits and Vegetables Import Requirements database. Subscribers may
also select how often to receive emails, Really Simple Syndication
(RSS) feeds, or Short Message Service (SMS) messages.
Current and new subscribers may sign up now for the new registry at
https://public.govdelivery.com/accounts/USDAAPHIS/subscriber/new or by
clicking on the red envelope icon throughout the plant health pages on
the APHIS Web site at http://www.aphis.usda.gov/plant_health/index.shtml. The current PPQ stakeholder registry will be disabled on
July 8, 2011. Questions concerning the PPQ stakeholder registry may be
directed to [email protected].
Done in Washington, DC, this 17th day of June 2011.
Kevin Shea,
Acting Administrator, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.
