Paragraph 16

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

When carrying out a survey of susceptible plants and residual material in a demarcated area, the survey must—

(a)

include the inspection, sampling and testing of those plants and that material for the presence of the plant pest;

(b)

focus in particular on susceptible plants which are dead, in poor health or affected by fire or storm; and

(c)

be carried out at an appropriate rate which ensures that the intensity of the survey in the area lying within a radius of 3000 m of an infested susceptible plant is at least four times higher than in the rest of the buffer zone outside that area.
