Recognition and Maintenance of Protected Zones

62. The Service may submit a proposal to the European Commission to recognise all of the territory of Latvia or a certain part of it, where a harmful organism has not been introduced or spread, as a protected zone.

63. The Service shall prepare a proposal regarding recognition of the protected zone, based on the risk analysis of harmful organisms and distribution inspections conducted in the territory of Latvia.

64. The Service shall develop a programme of phytosanitary control in order to obtain evidence that a harmful organism, because of which it is intended to recognise a protected zone or because of which a protected zone has been already established, has been introduced or spread into a certain territory.

65. The Service shall perform phytosanitary control in the relevant territory to obtain recognition of the protected zone or for maintenance thereof, and this shall consist of:

65.1. appropriate surveys based on an understanding of the biology of the harmful organism, agricultural practice and environmental conditions, visual examinations of plants and laboratory testing; and

65.2. permanent phytosanitary controls which provide regular and systematic surveys, at appropriate times, at least once a year, in order to determine the presence of harmful organism for which the protected zone has been recognised.

66. The Service:

66.1. shall ensure the availability of survey methodology and results of the surveys are provided to the experts of the European Union; and

66.2. shall notify the survey methodology and the results to the European Commission.

68.1. survey forest or timber pests in the relevant territory; and

68.2. carry out surveys pursuant to the methodology in which a network of registered observation points is used to systematically cover the entire relevant zone. The Service shall register the observation site number, actual latitude and longitude co-ordinates, prepare a topography of the observation point, and, where appropriate, provide a description and mark the relevant observation points on a map.

69. The appropriateness of the observation points shall be determined based on the following criteria:

69.1. the area surrounding the point must be sufficiently large to carry out the relevant observations; and

69.2. if there is potential risk of the introduction of the plant quarantine organisms, other observation points shall be selected in the relevant territory.

70. Where appropriate, precipitation and temperature shall be measured at the observation point or data may be used from the nearest meteorological station, where these data are regularly measured. Extreme events (for example, heavy rain, drought), which are likely to influence the observations, shall also be recorded.

71. One or more of the main host plants or plant products of harmful organisms shall be surveyed at the observation points. Where appropriate, the amount of host plants or plant products to be surveyed, shall be enough to provide the characteristics of the relevant observation point.

72. During a survey, visual examinations shall be carried out to determine the presence of symptoms or signs of the harmful organism. The surveys shall be carried out at a time when possible symptoms or signs will be at their maximum. Laboratory testing of samples shall be carried out if suspicions are raised regarding the presence of a plant quarantine organism.

73. Traps, which attract the relevant harmful organisms, shall be used at the observation point. The type and number of traps, as well as a method of trapping shall be selected by taking into account the biology of the harmful organism.

74. A plant quarantine organism shall be deemed to have spread in any territory, if it is determined, that it has occurred there and the Service has not carried out the necessary measures for at least two successive years and such measures have been found ineffective.
