A minimum of three (3) sensors shall be used for each hot water dip tank. One sensor should be located at a depth of 100mm from the base of the tank, another at 100mm from the surface and the other inserted into the centre of the load mass. Treatment time commences when temperature returns to 54ºC ± 1ºC

  • r 50ºC ± 1ºC for the alternative

treatment. Potted vines Potted vines

  • riginating

in Australia are prohibited entry into South Australia Importer must submit proposal to Chief Inspector with:

  • 1. Details of the place or places of origin of each culture;
  • 2. Grape varieties
  • 3. Production specifications of the tissue culture:

(i)only an agar based medium shall be acceptable. This must have been poured into the container while liquid. The medium should be clear as opaque substances preclude inspection. (ii)the plants must have been grown in the vessel in which they are imported. (iii)the cultures must be free from other living organisms and no prior measures must have been taken to suppress microbial growth. (iv)the container must be rigid, clear plastic or glass. Its closure

Where is the material coming from? Grapevine cuttings and rootlings grown in a PRZ

  • r PIZ are

prohibited entry into South Australia Have these been quarantined at a Commonwealth post-entry quarantine (PEQ) facility? YES NO Import accompanied by Plant Health Certificate (PHC) Send directly to South Australia from PEQ Commonwealth post-entry quarantine (PEQ) facility? Send directly to South Australia from PEQ Import accompanied by Plant Health Certificate (PHC)

1Cutting is a portion of a grapevine cane, which has not been planted in soil or permitted to develop roots. 2Rootling refers to any vine material which has developed roots (including callus), and includes original and grafted plants.

NOTE:

  • 1. Some plant material may be damaged by hot water treatment. A trial treatment is recommended unless the response of the pla nt material to this treatment is known.

Remove any parts of the machine which may hold and hide dirt and plant fragments (e.g. harvester belts) and thoroughly clean with a steam cleaner or pressure washer to ensure all soil and plant fragments are completely removed.

CONDITION 7A (1) MACHINERY USED IN GRAPE PRODUCTION – Grape phylloxera

  • This provision applies to any machinery (including grape harvesters) previously used in the production and manipulation of grapes and grapevines.

Is it a grape harvester? Sterilise by Dry Heat only: (i)Place the grape harvester in a suitable room, shed or container that can be heated up to the required temperature. (ii)Apply temperature probes to the harvester, and measure the surface temperature and preferably some deeper parts of the harvester. (iii)Heat up the room until the probes indicate the required temperature has been reached EITHER 1.5 hours at 45°C OR 2 hours at 40°C. Sterilise by either of these three methods:

  • 1. Dry Heat: (i)Place the machinery in a suitable room, shed or container that

can be heated up to the required temperature. (ii)Apply temperature probes to the machine and measure the surface temperature. (iii)Heat up the room until the probes indicate the required temperature has been reached EITHER 1.5 hours at 45°C OR 2 hours at 40°C.

  • 2. Steam: (i)Steam applied must be above 100° C. (ii)Ensure steam contacts all

surfaces until the surface is left dry, not wet with condensate.

  • 3. Hot water: (i)Immerse machinery totally in water at a minimum of 70°C.

(ii)Hold in water for at least 2 minutes after the entire machine has reached 70C°. What Phylloxera Management Zone is the machine coming from? Phylloxera Exclusion Zone (PEZ) or state free of grape phylloxera Phylloxera Infested Zone (PIZ) or Phylloxera Risk Zone (PRZ) Is the machinery being received by an IVCA-accredited business in SA? Subject to verification and inspection by Biosecurity SA YES NO YES NO

NOTES:

  • 1. Recent research has shown that sterilisation by dry heat at 40°C for 120 minutes is

ineffective against some endemic grape phylloxera strains. Vinehealth Australia strongly recommends that all dry heat treatment be undertaken at 45°C for 120 minutes as per the current Naracoorte Heat Shed operational specifications.

  • 2. Cleanliness of trucks moving equipment is also vital. Ensure to communicate this to all
  • perators involved in machinery movement.
  • 3. For brand new machinery moving into SA that has not been used in grape production

previously, a statutory declaration can be submitted to Biosecurity SA.

Page 4 Any used grapevine machinery must not enter South Australia without prior written approval from the Chief Inspector AND unless the following has been undertaken: Import accompanied by:

  • 1. Import Certificate from Chief Inspector; and 2. Plant Health Certificate (PHC)

Subject to verification and inspection by accredited IVCA business Certified that the machine has been located continuously for at least the preceding 2 weeks in either a State free from grape phylloxera or a PEZ AND that the machine HAS NOT been used in a PRZ

  • r PIZ during the previous 12 month
  • period. If the machine HAS been used in

a PRZ or PIZ during the previous 12 months, then evidence must be supplied to demonstrate that it has been sterilised using one of the three methods, which for a harvester, must be dry heat. Sterilise If applicable, sterilisation demonstrated? YES NO
