Hi Chuck,
> What kind of hoops do you have to jump thru to reimport some german black bees to the states.

Little bitty tight ones, that you will have a hard time fitting through. You could probably do so if you could guarantee complete isolation, and no escape to feral populated areas. You also will get heat from most of the beekeeping community in the USA but not from me. If you do have success getting importation rights I would love to obtain some to test up here in Alaska. You will need permit from APHIS and ASDA. Permit forms can be obtained from their web site on PDF format.
