Australian Melon Association’s BISOP documents how the organisation delivers on its roles and responsibilities as a Party to the EPPRD, with specific emphasis on undertaking its role in a response to an incident. This document provides guidance to staff and other representatives of AMA, documents corporate knowledge and organisational procedures relevant to incidents responded to under the EPPRD.
Incident means the occurrence of a confirmed or reasonably held suspicion of an EPP or of an uncategorised Plant Pest which is reasonably believed to be an EPP (not including a Plant Pest investigation where the provisional finding or diagnosis is that the Plant Pest is established).
This BISOP is specific to the direct responsibilities of the AMA during a response to a suspect of known EPP notification where they are identified as a potentially Affected Party under the EPPRD.
