quarantine authorities in case of detection of fruit fly in export areas

1. Cold treatment

1) Conditions of cold treatment facilities

① Treatment facilities shall be equipped with the automatic temperature

recorder to monitor both the fruit core temperature and the chamber
temperature from outside from time to time.

② Each treatment facilities are able to maintain the fruit core temperature of
0°C±0.5°C during the cold treatment for grape and kiwi and to be able to
maintain the fruit core temperature of 1°C±0.5°C during the cold treatment for
orange and lemon.

2) Place of establishment of cold treatment facilities and Storage

○ Cold treatment facilities shall be established inside the packing houses and the
treated fruits shall be stored in the place whose openings shall be screened
with the net below 1.6mm in diameter in order to prevent infestation by fruit
fly.

3) Designation of cold treatment facilities

① SAG will designate the cold treatment facilities for grape, kiwi, orange and
lemon fruits to be exported to Korea after confirming whether their conditions
are in compliance with above 1) and 2).

② The Korean plant quarantine inspector (hereinafter referred to as APQA

inspector) shall evaluate the cold treatment facilities before initiating the cold
treatment jointly with the Chilean plant quarantine inspector (hereinafter
referred to as SAG inspector).

4) Temperature and period of cold treatment

① The fruit produced in the export areas designated by SAG shall be treated to the

fruit core temperature of 0°C±0.5°C for 12 days in grape, 14 days in kiwi,

respectively.

② The fruit produced in the export areas designated by SAG shall be treated to the
fruit core temperature of 1°C±0.5°C for 16 days in orange, 14 days in lemon,

19
 respectively.

5) Measurement of treatment temperature and period

① APQA inspector(s) shall confirm the accuracy of thermometer’s sensors

before starting the cold treatment.

② Total 4 pulp sensors (in the top, middle and bottom spots) for each lot shall
be placed in fruit core in order to calibrate the fruit core temperature, and 2
air sensors (placed in the top and bottom of chamber) shall be placed in
order to measure the air temperature.

③ The period of cold treatment shall be calculated after all sensors of the grape
and kiwi fruit core reach 0°C±0.5°C, and the temperature shall be
maintained for 12 days in grapes, 14 days in kiwi, respectively, and all
sensors of fruit core shall not exceed more than 0°C±0.5°C during the period
of cold treatment. In case of orange and lemon fruits, the period of cold
treatment shall be calculated after all sensors of fruit core reach 1°C±0.5°C,
and the temperature shall be maintained for 16 days in orange, 14 days in
lemon, respectively, and all sensors of fruit core shall not exceed more than
1°C±0.5°C during the period of cold treatment.

6) Record and maintenance of cold treatment temperature

○ Cold treatment temperature shall be recorded with a chart speed of 50mm/hr.

The temperature records in cold treatment shall be approved by the APQA
inspector(s) before the joint inspection between APQA and SAG.

PLANT QUARANTINE REQUIREMENTS FOR CHILEAN FRESH TABLE

GRAPE, KIWIFRUIT, BLUEBERRY AND CHERRY EXPORTS TO THE
REPUBLIC OF KOREA

EGVM Risk Mitigation Measures

1. GENERAL

In order to reduce the risk of finding the quarantine pest European grapevine moth
(EGVM, Lobesia botrana) in Chilean blueberry, grape, kiwifruit and cherry exports
to the Korean market, the National Plant Protection Organization of Korea (Animal
and Plant Quarantine Agency, APQA) and the Chilean Agriculture and Livestock
Service (SAG) have jointly defined the measures contained herein to be applied as a
complement to the existing protocols agreed between both countries for the aforesaid
species.

Without limiting the foregoing, the SAG hereby states that blueberries, kiwifruit and
cherries are only occasional hosts of this pest in Chile.

2. ORCHARD MANAGEMENT MEASURES

2.1 Every blueberry, table grape, kiwifruit or cherry orchard wishing to export to
Korea must register with the SAG.
2.2 A list of registered orchards by species shall be forwarded to Korea every year
before exports begin, specifying orchard name and allotted identification code for
produce traceability.
2.3 The following phytosanitary surveillance activities must be performed in table
grape, blueberry and cherry orchards:

26
2.3.1 At least one (1) EGVM trap shall be placed by the SAG in every orchard
wishing to export to Korea, according to the instructions defined in the National
Program for EGVM Control in Chile.

A 500 meter radius Pest Control Area shall be established around any detected
EGVM outbreaks.

In the case of table grapes, an outbreak is defined as any of the following

occurrences:
- Capturing two (2) or more EGVM adult specimens in a trap, or
- Detecting one (1) immature stage (egg, larva or pupa) in fruit
For blueberries and cherries, an outbreak consists in detecting one (1)
immature stage (egg, larva or pupa) in fruit.

2.3.2. Orchards within the mandatory 500-m Control Area wishing to export to Korea
must sample their fruit to verify the absence of any EGVM immature stages. An
EGVM positive result of any sample analysis shall entail the suspension of the
concerned orchard for the remaining of the season. This monitoring must be
done by SAG authorized organizations before harvest begins in each orchard.

2.4 All kiwifruits orchards within the 500m radius Control Area wishing to export to Korea
must undergo fruit inspection before harvesting to verify the absence of any EGVM
immature stages.

2.4.1. In the event of any EGVM immature stages being detected in kiwifruit, the
SAG shall implement a surveillance program like that of table grapes, blueberries
and cherries. For kiwifruit, an outbreak consists in detecting one (1) immature
stage (egg, larva or pupa) in fruit.
2.4.2. The orchard where the fruit causing the outbreak was grown shall not send any
shipments to Korea for the rest of the season.
2.4.3. In the event of any EGVM immature stages being detected in kiwifruit, SAG
shall notify this to APQA.

27
3. PACKINGHOUSE MANAGEMENT MEASURES AND OFFICIAL
PHYTOSANITARY INSPECTION
3.1 Every blueberry, table grape, kiwifruit or cherry packinghouse wishing to export
to Korea must register with the SAG.
3.2 A list of registered packinghouses shall be sent every year to Korea before
harvests begin, specifying the name and allotted identification code of each
participant for produce traceability.
3.3 Every box of fruit going to Korea must be marked with the code of the orchard
where the fruit was grown (CSG) and the packinghouse code (CSP).
3.4 Official phytosanitary inspections shall be conducted by the SAG.
3.5 Only consignments having passed the SAG phytosanitary inspection as free from
EGVM and other pests of quarantine importance to Korea, as per current
protocols, may be exported to Korea.
3.6 Should any presence of EGVM be detected during an official phytosanitary
inspection of blueberries, table grapes, kiwifruit or cherries, the orchard of the
country of origin shall be suspended from exporting to Korea for the remaining
part of the season, and APQA shall be informed of this situation.
3.7 To the extent possible, table grape consignments must contain fruit from a single
grower.

4. PHYTOSANITARY CERTIFICATION
4.1 Table grape, blueberry and cherry Phytosanitary Certificates must include the

following Additional Declaration: “This consignment has been grown in orchards

free from EGVM and is free from this pest.”

4.2 The following Additional Declaration must be included in kiwifruit Phytosanitary

Certificates: “This consignment is free from EGVM.”

28
 4.3 An appendix shall be attached to all Phytosanitary Certificates, stating relevant
orchard and packinghouse codes, respectively CSG and CSP.

5. IMPORT INSPECTION
5.1 Should any live EGVM specimens be detected during an import inspection at a
Korean port of entry, the shipment shall be fumigated or returned or destroyed
(See Attachment for fumigation treatment schedules). In case the above-
mentioned Additional Declaration is missing on Phytosanitary certificate issued
by SAG, the shipment shall be returned or destroyed.
5.2 The orchard where fruit with detected presence of EGVM was grown shall be
suspended from exporting to Korea for the rest of the season.

6. IN TRANSIT FRUIT
6.1 If any shipments in transit contain produce from an orchard in the fruit of which
EGVM presence was detected during either inspection, the import one at
destination or the official SAG phytosanitary one at origin, the consignment shall
be fumigated, returned or destroyed at the point of entry.

7. ON-SITE VISIT
7.1 Two visits to Chile shall be made by APQA officers from Korea to supervise the
National EGVM Program during the export season, one before blueberry and
cherry harvest begins and the other prior to the table grape and kiwifruit picking
period.
7.2 The SAG shall send an invitation letter to the APQA in advance of each
harvesting season, January to February for table grapes and kiwifruit, and August
to October in the case of blueberries and cherries.
7.3 All costs arising from these visits shall be borne by the Chilean party.

8. OTHERS

29
8.1 SAG shall provide APQA with an updated version of the National Program for
EGVM Control in Chile every year.
8.2 This Addendum may be reviewed and modified at any time through consultation
between the NPPOs of the two countries.
