§ 1430.39. Oranges, Serious Damage.
Oranges shall be free from serious damage, except as provided in Section 1430.44, due to:
(a) Freezing damage on the segment walls. Segment wall damage includes a water soaked appearance, evidence of previous water-soaking, or the presence of crystals or crystalline deposit on two surface membranes of each of two or more segments, on the entire length but not necessarily the entire area of the membranes. The test section shall be not less than 1 inch or more than 1 ½ inches in thickness, and shall be obtained from the central portion of the orange by cutting off a portion of each end.
(b) Freezing, if 20 percent or more of the pulp or edible portion as shown on a transverse cut through the center shows evidence of staining, drying, desiccation, or a mushy condition.
(c) Drying by causes other than freezing, if 20 percent or more of the pulp or edible portion as determined by a volume cut (as defined in Section 1430.9.1) shows evidence of staining, drying, desiccation, or a mushy condition.
