APHIS inspector on site in France to validate foreign site preclearance. If you conclude that the consignment was not
precleared, PROHIBIT ENTRY.

freedom from Brachycerus spp. and Dyspessa ulula. Consignment is admissible into the continental U.S. only and is subject
to inspection at the first port of entry. If inspection reveals the target pests (Brachycerus spp. or D. ulula), the required
fumigation, T101-e-2, is a fumigation under vacuum. However, as of October 2008, there are no APHIS-approved commercial
vacuum chambers in the US. Consignments with target pests must be reexported, destroyed, or returned to the country of
origin.
