European Grapevine Moth (EGVM)

Compliance Agreements

IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A COMPLIANCE AGREEMENT:

Growers, Harvesters, Haulers and Wineries, please check the revision date in the lower left corner of the exhibits (1269 A, B, C, D1, D2, and Appendix 1, as applicable). If the revision date is before August 1, 2011, please continue reading.

The California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA) is now requiring that growers, harvesters, haulers and wineries, with EGVM compliance agreements, have the latest versions of the applicable exhibits which have been released since August 1, 2011. Please note that growers, harvesters, and wineries, who do not already have a copy of the August 1, 2011 version of Appendix 1, must also sign and return Appendix 1. Select the appropriate exhibit from EGVM Exhibits print, sign and return them to our office via mail, fax (707) 565-3850, or email at Sonomaag@sonoma-county.org. Please include your business name and compliance agreement number on each exhibit.

CDFA has made numerous revisions to the European Grapevine Moth compliance agreements exhibits since they were first issued in May, 2010. A summary of the current key EGVM/ LBAM quarantine requirements can be found at Harvest Time Information.
