Right now the ban would apply to shipping of Burms and Rocks into and within the US. Whether they change that to importation only has still not been agreed or voted upon. In the hearing some spoke just on importation and others continued to refer to the interstate trade - and others wanted a flat out ban from keeping - so this isn't resolved and won by any means.

It was mentioned in the hearing that they expect an amendment to include at least all 9 species that are in the USGS's recent study.
