The objective of these requirements is to protect South Australian resources, minimise the risk of the introduction of plant pests and disease, and to protect South Australia’s horticulture industry. Primary Industries and Regions South Australia (PIRSA) through Biosecurity SA is responsible for administering and enforcing the Plant Health Act 2009 and the South Australian Plant Quarantine Standard. The options to verify compliance with import quarantine requirements are either; o Direct Inspection of imported produce, where Biosecurity SA must check imported consignments prior to their release, at the cost of the importer, or o IVCA, where the importer assesses and records compliance, and Biosecurity SA audits compliance by the company, at the cost of the importer. IVCA is an option that provides flexibility, and is cost effective for business, whilst managing the quarantine risk associated with imported produce. This would normally be the preferred and most economical option for businesses that routinely import horticultural produce. This Operational Procedure outlines the conditions of an IVCA agreed between an importer and the Minister. 1.0 PURPOSE The purpose of this IVCA Procedure Manual is to describe the: (a) principles of operation and standards required; and (b) responsibilities and practices of accredited business and their personnel; required in verifying that any plants or plant related products brought into the state meet the conditions of the South Australian Plant Quarantine Standard and Plant Health Act 2009. 2.0 SCOPE This procedure applies to any plant and plant related product brought into the state which requires certification under the Plant Health Act 2009 and is covered under a condition of the South Australian Plant Quarantine Standard. 3.0 REFERENCES Plant Health Act 2009 South Australian Plant Health Regulations South Australian Plant Quarantine Standard (As amended from time to time and available at: http://www.pir.sa.gov.au/biosecuritysa/planthealth/importers/plant_quarantine_standard Objective ID: A440280 Ver: 5.2 CA-01- IVCA Operational Procedure Page 4 of 17 Security Classification: Unclassified 4/07/2014 IVCA OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE FOR INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION OF IMPORTED PLANT AND PLANT RELATED MATERIAL 4.0 DEFINITIONS Accredited Business Means a business accredited under the Plant Health Act 2009 to operate an Interstate Verification Compliance Arrangement (IVCA) Biosecurity SA Means Biosecurity SA – Plant Health Certificate Means either a Plant Health Certificate issued by an interstate plant quarantine authority or a Plant Health Assurance Certificate issued by an interstate business accredited under the national Interstate Certification Assurance (ICA) Program or approved equivalent.

Follow directions on any QDO and not release product until it has been signed as “rectified”. REQUIREMENTS A business accredited for IVCA is required to verify that imported plant and plant related material received at the accredited facility meets all of the necessary entry requirements stipulated in the PQS prior to release by; appointing and training one or more Responsible Persons to undertake the verifications in accordance with this Manual (see section 7.0 Procedure) and the PQS; nominating one person as the Certification Controller who shall take responsibility for the arrangement and act as the contact person. verifying a valid PHC or PHAC arrives with each consignment when necessary; verifying that certificates accurately describe the consignment verifying that certificates stipulate the necessary conditions required for entry of the consignment verifying that packaging and labelling meet entry requirements verifying and inspecting consignments at the rates described in section 7.1.2 endorsing certification and releasing consignments that meet all requirements applying corrective action in regard to consignments that are not compliant and/or subject to a QDO which may include the need to return or re-direct consignments where required; ensuring proof of any returns or redirections (Plant Health Import Certificate) is obtained, recorded and maintained for audit purposes; Objective ID: A440280 Ver: 5.2 CA-01- IVCA Operational Procedure Page 7 of 17 Security Classification: Unclassified 4/07/2014 IVCA OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE FOR INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION OF IMPORTED PLANT AND PLANT RELATED MATERIAL notifying Biosecurity SA when necessary; maintaining files and completing records for audit purposes; ensuring Responsible Persons and necessary records are made available for audits submitting annual returns prior to the due date, and paying all Biosecurity SA charges and fees associated with IVCA in accordance with Biosecurity SA trading terms. A business accredited for IVCA is also required to; maintain records that enable both backward and forward traceability of consignments of imported plant and plant related material it receives; and ensure consignments/produce are able to be and will be recalled for Biosecurity SA in the case of a post-entry quarantine risk being identified. Biosecurity SA will make any required amendments to the IVCA manual and PQS and make them available on the Biosecurity SA web-site. The website should be regularly accessed by the all staff responsible for verifying produce under this arrangement to check for changes to import requirements, host lists, treatment conditions and the most current IVCA procedure manual. http://www.pir.sa.gov.au/biosecuritysa/planthealth/importers 7.0 7.1 PROCEDURE Verification of Interstate Consignments at Receival Consignments arriving from interstate must be recorded and undergo the following verifications by a nominated Responsible Person by the end of the first working day before they can be released under IVCA; 7.1.1 Verify Presence of Plant or Plant Related Material Verify whether consignment contains any Plant or Plant Related Material listed in PQS Index (See Appendix 8) and therefore requires a valid Plant Health Certificate, Plant Health Assurance Certificate, Declaration or other proof of origin. 7.1.2 Verify Pest Freedom Inspect and verify consignment is not apparently affected by any pests or diseases and contact Biosecurity SA if any are found or suspected. Inspections need to be conducted at the following rates unless a different rate is specified in the South Australian Plant Quarantine Standard or as directed by Biosecurity SA: Number of Packages 1–5 Inspection Rate 100% of one package 6 – 10 100% of two packages >11 100% of three packages Large Packages (e.g bins) Inspect the single top (or visible) layer at double the rates described above. For example, for one to five bins, check the top layer of two bins. Objective ID: A440280 Ver: 5.2 CA-01- IVCA Operational Procedure Page 8 of 17 Security Classification: Unclassified 4/07/2014 IVCA OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE FOR INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION OF IMPORTED PLANT AND PLANT RELATED MATERIAL Every piece of plant or plant related material from the inspected package (individual pieces of fruit or potted plants for example) need to be visually inspected for any signs of pest or diseases. The exception to this is for larger packages (e.g. bins), where only 100% of the top, single layer of produce needs to be inspected at double the rates described in the table above. Therefore, for one to five bins, it would be necessary to inspect the top layer of two bins, for six to ten it would be four and for more than 11 it would be six. If any pest or disease is found or suspected, the produce must be moved to the Designated Quarantine Area and Biosecurity SA notified immediately. Biosecurity SA will then endeavour to identify the pest or disease and advise the Certification Controller of the result as soon as possible. If the pest or disease is of concern to SA (see Appendix 9) further action will be required, otherwise the consignment can be released after first gaining clearance from Biosecurity SA. In the event produce with pests present is released and distributed, Biosecurity SA must be immediately informed and the business shall immediately commence steps to recall and recover the produce from those it supplied directly for destruction, return or treatment in consultation with Biosecurity SA. 7.1.3 Verify whether Consignment is Subject to any Quarantine Direction Order(s) (QDO) and Rectify Non-conformance(s) before Release. Should a consignment arrive accompanied by a Quarantine Direction Order the directions issued on the order must be strictly followed. Fines apply for disobeying a QDO and not following the directions can also be grounds for cancellation or suspension of IVCA accreditation and/or prosecution. If a consignment arrives with a QDO the Responsible Person must, before releasing the consignment; ensure the requirements of the QDO are fully met (call Biosecurity SA for advice should there be any doubt about how to deal with the QDO); complete the bottom section of the QDO and sign in the required space to attest the requirements have been fully met, enter the details of the QDO and remedy in the Incident Log, and advise Biosecurity SA as soon as practicable. Please note that if Biosecurity SA are not advised within 24 hours, costs incurred in follow-up activity can be recovered. file the completed QDO with the relevant PHC/PHAC for future auditing. fax a copy of the QDO to Biosecurity on SA on 08 8207 7844 or scan and email to pirsa.planthealthmarketaccess.sa.gov.au; 7.1.4 Verify Consignment Re-entering SA Verify any consignment of South Australian produce that arrives (re-enters) from interstate is accompanied with a Plant Health Import Certificate if required. Refer any concerns to a Biosecurity SA Plant Health Inspector and record on “Produce Incident Record”. 7.1.5 Verify Packaging and Product Labelling Verify packaging and labelling matches that indicated on the PHC/PHAC and complies with the provisions of the PQS, namely – Objective ID: A440280 Ver: 5.2 CA-01- IVCA Operational Procedure Page 9 of 17 Security Classification: Unclassified 4/07/2014 IVCA OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE FOR INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION OF IMPORTED PLANT AND PLANT RELATED MATERIAL New, or if used, free of soil, plant residues and other organic matter; and Marked legibly and indelibly in English and in letters no less than 5 mm high on the packaging itself or an attached identification tag with following; For packaging associated with ICA and PHAC; the Interstate Produce (IP) number of the accredited business that certified the consignment: the relevant ICA-# (e.g. ICA-01) and Facility #; and the date or date code on which the produce was packed. For packaging associated with a PHC or other than ICA; the name and address including the State or Territory, of the grower and the packer or other person who dispatched such fruit, vegetables, or products; a brief description of the contents of the package; and the date or date code on which the produce was packed. 7.1.6 Verify Presence, Authenticity and Validity of Plant Health Certification Verify consignment is accompanied by an original and uniquely numbered PHC or PHAC and verify its accuracy and completeness (Appendices 2 and 3). Each certificate must contain the following details; consignor’s name and physical address; consignee’s name and physical address; produce type and quantity; grower’s name and physical address; treatment details and treatment code, or pest freedom details and code; interstate Produce Number (if applicable/PHAC); ICA Procedure code (PHAC) or entry condition (PHC) being certified; date packed / dispatched or date code (if applicable/PHAC); treatment dates are present and correct (if applicable) and the signature of the Inspector (PHC) or authorised signatory (PHAC). the business issuing the PHAC is currently accredited and is not currently suspended or their accreditation has not expired. Certificates must; have been issued prior to entry of the consignment into SA; accompany the consignment whilst in transit unless otherwise authorised by a Inspector; be retained for at least 12 months after the date of verification or arrival; and Be presented to a Inspector immediately upon request. If a PHAC or PHC cannot be obtained within 24 hours the produce must remain quarantined and Biosecurity SA contacted for further directions. NOTE: Authenticated copies of Certificates may be obtained and therefore satisfy ICVA verification requirements (See 7.5); Objective ID: A440280 Ver: 5.2 CA-01- IVCA Operational Procedure Page 10 of 17 Security Classification: Unclassified 4/07/2014 IVCA OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE FOR INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION OF IMPORTED PLANT AND PLANT RELATED MATERIAL consignments may also be re-consignments or split re-consignments in which case the certificate will clearly indicate this. (See 7.6) 7.1.7 Verify any Alterations on Certification are Endorsed Verify that any alteration of details on a certificate is endorsed with the date and signature of a Government Authorised Officer or an authorised signatory of the accredited business that issued the certificate. Certificates with details altered by a person other than the original signatory or not endorsed shall be noted on the “Produce Incident Record” and the reason followed up with the exporter. 7.1.8 Verify Consignment Contents, Package Conditions and Package Marking Verify the quantity of packages and the produce type matches the consignment details stated on the certification. 7.1.9 Verify Certified Treatments/Conditions Meet Entry Conditions Verify that treatments or conditions stated on the PHC/PHAC meet those required in the PQS. Treatments must be performed prior to the arrival of the consignment in SA. Treatment on arrival is not an acceptable option. 7.2 Release and Certifying Release of Verified Consignments If the consignment has the correct certification and the consigning business (if a PHAC) is currently accredited and has met all the verifications in 7.1 within 24 hours of receival, prior to releasing the consignment the Responsible Person must; Certify/verify on the reverse side of the accompanying verified certificate by; o stamping (or writing) “Inspected and Verified”, o stamping or writing the date, and o signing. The verified certificates must then be filed at the business facility in date order for audit purposes. A consignment that fails the IVCA verification process outlined above must be considered NON-CONFORMING. 7.3 Non-Conforming Consignments Consignments will be regarded as nonconforming and unable to be released if: the accompanying certification is not a valid PHC or PHAC; certification cannot be obtained for the consignment or part consignment; the certification is incorrectly completed; the composition of the consignment differs from that stated in the certification; any package in the consignment is unlabelled or wrongly labelled; any package in the consignment is not new or it is identified as containing soil, plant debris or organic matter; pests are present or suspected; the business which consigned the produce is currently suspended from sending produce into South Australia.

If correct certification cannot be obtained, the Responsible Person shall; leave the produce in the Designated Quarantine Area and contact Biosecurity SA to discuss options in relation to the non-conforming produce; and record the relevant details on the “Produce Incident Record” (Appendix 10). 7.3.3 Corrective Action – No Certification Arrives in 24 Hrs. Where a non-conformance cannot be rectified after 24 hours the Responsible Person must; retain nonconforming produce in the designated quarantine area and label it “Quarantined”; enter the details on the Produce Incident Record; and notify Biosecurity SA of the nonconforming produce by the end of that working day. Upon notification, an Inspector will confirm the nonconformity, determine appropriate action and issue a Certificate of Non-Compliance. NOTE: In the event non-conforming produce is found to have been illegally released, the business must, at its expense, recall all of the consignment for presentation to Biosecurity SA. Such release can also incur penalty or prosecution. Biosecurity SA may also seek to recover costs incurred from any follow-up activity such as investigations or destruction of the pest affected produce. 7.4 Product Traceability The business shall keep records of receivals and those whom they have directly distributed produce to that will enable it to conduct any necessary quarantine withdrawal.

IVCA ACCREDITATION Accreditation Biosecurity SA may accredit a business to implement an IVCA provided that the business complies with the requirements of this IVCA manual. Application for Accreditation To attain accreditation the importer shall apply and submit an application to Biosecurity SA at least ten working days before the accreditation is required. The importer shall nominate in the application the name and contact details of the Certification Controller and Responsible Person(s). Annual Accreditation Returns A business is required to submit an annual return to Biosecurity SA at completion of each accreditation year. Each accredited business will receive a reminder indicating the due date of their Annual Return. It is an expiable offence not to lodge the return within 30 days of this date and accreditation can be cancelled for failure to do so. 9.2 Audit Process Desk Audit Biosecurity SA will check each Application for Accreditation received for accuracy and completeness and any deficiencies or omissions identified will be brought to the notice of the business to be rectified. Objective ID: A440280 Ver: 5.2 CA-01- IVCA Operational Procedure Page 14 of 17 Security Classification: Unclassified 4/07/2014 IVCA OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE FOR INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION OF IMPORTED PLANT AND PLANT RELATED MATERIAL Initial Audit Prior to accrediting a business, a Biosecurity SA Plant Health Inspector will carry out an initial on-site audit to verify that the IVCA has been implemented and the business is capable of operating in accordance with the requirements of this manual. A business will not be able to commence IVCA until an initial audit is passed. On completion of a successful initial audit, applicants will be granted accreditation and presented with a Certificate of Accreditation which must be made available at future audits. In the event of cancellation of the accreditation the Certificate must be returned to Biosecurity SA within 14 days. Compliance Audit To verify a business is capable of continuing to operate IVCA in accordance with the requirements of this Operational Procedure, a Biosecurity SA Plant Health Inspector will carry out regular on-site Compliance Audits at each accredited facility. The first Compliance Audit will be scheduled to occur within four weeks of the initial audit or commencement of verification and release of consignments (See Appendix 14). 9.3 Compliance Audit Frequency The ongoing frequency of compliance audits will be determined by Biosecurity SA depending upon the risk factors associated with the imported produce, e.g. type of produce, origin, frequency of consignments, level of compliance, interstate pest pressure and performance of the business. The audit frequency for the ensuing twelve months will normally be indicated to the business at the initial on-site audit but is subject to change at any time. The audit frequency may increase or decrease dependent on the level of compliance and commitment demonstrated by the business at audit. . Audits will usually be carried out when the business is importing produce. 9.4 Other Types of Audit Biosecurity SA may also conduct the following type of audits. Follow up audits: audits conducted by Biosecurity SA subsequent to identifying a non-conformance by the business to ensure the issue has been dealt with and has been rectified. Investigative Audit: audits conducted to investigate a reported or a suspected nonconformity. Unannounced Audits: audits conducted on a business, without prior notice being advised. 9.5 Audit Rules Auditing will involve: checking that nominated responsible persons understand their responsibilities and are properly trained; ensuring that the business performs the verification process in a logical and transparent manner; Objective ID: A440280 Ver: 5.2 CA-01- IVCA Operational Procedure Page 15 of 17 Security Classification: Unclassified 4/07/2014 IVCA OPERATIONAL PROCEDURE FOR INSPECTION AND VERIFICATION OF IMPORTED PLANT AND PLANT RELATED MATERIAL checking verified certificates for verification and compliance. The business shall; 10.0 make the Certification Controller and Responsible Person(s) available during Compliance Audits, provide facilities at the facility where the Inspector can adequately perform the audit with minimal interruption. co-operate with an Inspector carrying out the duties and responsibilities required by the IVCA. All auditing and associated travel will incur costs at Biosecurity SA prescribed rates. SANCTIONS POLICY 10.1 Types of Non-conformities Non-conformities are categorised as minor, major or critical. A minor nonconformity is one which does not compromise the effectiveness of the operational or assurance procedures but which varies sufficiently or is omitted from the documented procedure so as to be regarded as irregular. One example would be an occasional failure by the business to keep accurate records. A major non-conformity is one, which compromises the integrity of the system and is likely to increase the risk of a breakdown in procedures. One example would be inadequate verification and record keeping procedures. A critical non-conformity relates to the failure by the business to carry out operational and documentation procedures that are crucial to the effectiveness of the system. Examples include deliberate and/or repeated failures to collect and verify certification-accompanying consignments or to knowingly clear or sell uncertified host produce, or knowingly selling produce which was infested with a pest. 10.2 Action upon Detection of Nonconformities Minor Non-conformities Repeated minor nonconformities of a similar nature may result in the issue of a major nonconformity at subsequent audit. Major Non-conformities Detection of a major nonconformity will result in a follow up audit and may lead to temporary suspension of the IVCA until the problem is investigated and rectified. If the problem is not rectified the nonconformity may be termed critical. The issue of a major nonconformity may lead to an investigation and possible prosecution of the Business for being in breach of legislation. Critical Non-conformities The confirmation of a critical non-conformity may result in very intensive auditing of the IVCA, or suspension or cancellation of accreditation, or the instigation of other verification arrangements as determined by Biosecurity SA. It may lead to an investigation and possible prosecution where a breach of the legislation can be confirmed.
