Treatment Manual. http://www.aphis.usda.gov/import_export/plants/manuals/ports/downloads/treatment.pdf Definitions Definitions of phytosanitary terms used in the present standard can be found in ISPM 5 (Glossary of phytosanitary terms). Outline of Requirements Schedules on fumigation treatments may be used for pest risk management. National plant protection organizations (NPPOs) should be assured that the efficacy of the treatment is scientifically demonstrated for the regulated pest(s) of concern and the required response. Application of the treatment requires calibration of chemical and environmental recorders and fumigant mapping to ensure that the treatment is effective in particular facilities and with specific commodity configurations. The NPPO is responsible for ensuring that facilities are appropriately designed for phytosanitary treatments. Procedures should be in place to ensure that the treatment can be conducted properly and commodity lots are handled, stored and identified to ensure that phytosanitary security is maintained. Record-keeping by the treatment facility and documentation requirements for the facility and NPPO are required, and should include a compliance agreement between facility operator and the NPPO stipulating in particular the specific requirements for phytosanitary measures. 1. Authority The NPPO is responsible for the phytosanitary aspects of evaluation, adoption and use of fumigation as a phytosanitary measure. To the extent necessary, it is the NPPO’s responsibility to cooperate with other national and international regulatory agencies concerned with the development, approval, safety and application of fumigation, or the distribution, use or consumption of fumigated products. Their respective responsibilities should be identified to avoid overlapping, conflicting, inconsistent or unjustified requirements. 2. Treatment Objective
