Perhaps I should respond to Mr. Easter's first question, on existing statutory or regulatory restrictions.

Certainly there are no restrictions on imports under CEPA, which would only have the authority to restrict for the purpose of protecting the environment or health. To my knowledge there are no such restrictions at the moment under agriculture statutes either.
