Latest version.
  • (1) Each shipment of apples, apricots, asparagus, Italian prunes, peaches, pears, and sweet cherries must be covered by a shipping permit or certificate of compliance. No shipping permit or certificate of compliance will be issued unless the sweet cherries are determined to be free from live Western cherry fruit fly (Rhagoletis indifferens) larvae at the time of shipment.
    (2) In-state shipments of apples, apricots, asparagus, Italian prunes, peaches, pears, and sweet cherries to processors do not require a shipping permit or certificate of compliance.
    (3) A shipping permit or certificate of compliance may be issued without additional charge if the lot has been issued a grade and condition certificate.
    (4) If a lot has not been issued a grade and condition certificate, a shipping permit or certificate of compliance will be issued only after the lot is in full compliance with chapter 15.17 RCW and will be subject to a charge of two-thirds the applicable CWT fee specified in WAC 16-390-030, but not less than $5.00.
    (5) A shipping permit or certificate of compliance to ship a lot of apples or pears to a processing plant outside the state is five dollars.
