Just speculation, but maybe they are moving the silkworms through quarantine.

Per their quarantine procedure, KBLB needs to provide a number of documents including "1) a Registration Form as regulated, 2) Business license (or notarized copy), 3) other related documentation as regulated." I bet there would be plenty of extra documentation considering that it is GMO silkworms that are being imported. That would explain the "clerical delay" if this were the case.

Also, "Depending on the animal species and animal diseases, the quarantine period should not exceed 45 days for live animals and the time to isolate animal products for quarantine should not be more than 10 days." Hopefully this is the case and it will not be much longer, but it still needs to go through an examination in accordance with their Animal Health Law.

As I said, it is merely speculation. I would have PR'd something like this if it were in process, but I am not Kim.
