The purpose of this rule amendment is to raise the fees charged for samples taken for nematode certification from $30.00 to $50.00 per sample and fumigation services for loads exceeding 40 cu. ft. from $300.00 to $350.00. There would also be a new fee of $50.00 plus mileage per inspection charged for follow-up quarantine inspections. The effect will enable the Department to recover the cost of providing the special inspection services associated with nematode certification and fumigations. It will also help to recover the costs of performing numerous inspections on regulated articles that were found to be infested with a plant pest and subsequently quarantined.
