ATCP 21.14(5)(c)(c) If potatoes infected with potato rot nematode are found in any warehouse, no potatoes from that warehouse may be certified or sold for seed purposes except with the approval of the department and the college. Approval may be granted for the certification or sale of potatoes from the warehouse for seed purposes if, in the judgment of the department and the college, all of the following conditions are met:
ATCP 21.14(5)(c)1.1. The potatoes were cultivated, harvested, and stored in a manner which minimizes the spread of potato rot nematode.
ATCP 21.14(5)(c)2.2. The potatoes were not stored in the same bin with potatoes infected with potato rot nematode.
ATCP 21.14(5)(c)3.3. The warehouse and storage bins are constructed, maintained, and operated in a manner which effectively precludes the spread of potato rot nematode between bins.
ATCP 21.14(5)(c)4.4. There is minimal risk that the certification or sale of the potatoes will result in the spread of potato rot nematode.
ATCP 21.14(5)(d)(d) If a warehouse is found to contain potatoes infected with potato rot nematode, certified seed potatoes shall not be stored in that warehouse until all potatoes are removed from the warehouse and the warehouse is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected under the supervision of the college.

ATCP 21.15ATCP 21.15Potato late blight.
ATCP 21.15(1)(1)Definitions. In this section:
ATCP 21.15(1)(a)(a) “Cull pile” means a waste pile of harvested potatoes and includes seed cutting slivers and waste, storage remnants, and sweepings.
ATCP 21.15(1)(b)(b) “Late blight” means the fungal disease Phytophthora infestans.
ATCP 21.15(1)(c)(c) “Volunteer potato plants” means potato plants that germinate in places where they were not intentionally planted during the current calendar year, or that germinate from cull potatoes spread on land.
ATCP 21.15(2)(2)Disposing of cull piles. A person who owns or controls land on which potato cull piles are located shall dispose of those cull piles by May 20 of each year by one of the following methods:
ATCP 21.15(2)(a)(a) By feeding the cull potatoes to livestock so that they are completely consumed by May 20.
ATCP 21.15(2)(b)(b) By spreading the cull potatoes on fields and incorporating the cull potatoes into the soil.
ATCP 21.15(2)(c)(c) By depositing the cull potatoes in a licensed landfill with the written permission of the landfill operator.
ATCP 21.15(2)(d)(d) By another method which the department approves in writing.
ATCP 21.15(3)(3)Controlling volunteer potato plants. Whenever volunteer potato plants appear on land, the person who owns or controls that land shall immediately remove or kill those volunteer potato plants. Pesticides used to kill volunteer potato plants shall be labeled for the crop in which the volunteer plants emerge, or for the site at which they emerge.
ATCP 21.15(4)(4)Enforcement.
ATCP 21.15(4)(a)(a) The department may issue pest quarantine and abatement orders under ss. 94.01 and 94.02, Stats., and s. ATCP 21.03, to prevent or control late blight infestations, or to remedy violations of this section.
ATCP 21.15(4)(b)(b) If the department finds any field infested with late blight, the department may order the person owning or controlling that field to treat it, in a manner specified by the department, in order to control or eliminate the infestation. Treatment may include pesticide applications specified by the department.
ATCP 21.15(4)(c)(c) The department may order the destruction of a potato crop infested with late blight if the department finds that alternative measures will not adequately prevent or mitigate the spread of late blight.
ATCP 21.15(4)(d)(d) The department may seek to prosecute violations of this section under s. 94.77, Stats.
ATCP 21.15 NoteNote: The University of Wisconsin-Extension plant pathology and horticulture departments have developed integrated pest management procedures (IPM) that help protect against late blight. Growers are urged to follow these IPM procedures. IPM procedures and late blight forecasting information are available from the UW-extension county agricultural agent, or through a UW-extension computer program called the potato disease management plan under WISDOM.
