DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Drug Enforcement Administration


Importer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Application

    Pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 958(i), the Attorney General shall, prior to
issuing a registration under this Section to a bulk manufacturer of a
controlled substance in Schedule I or II and prior to issuing a
regulation under 21 U.S.C. 952(a)(2)(B) authorizing the importation of
such a substance, provide manufacturers holding registrations for the
bulk manufacture of the substance an opportunity for a hearing.
    Therefore, in accordance with 21 CFR 1301.34(a), this is notice
that on April 27, 2004, Wildlife Laboratories, 1401 Duff Drive, Suite
400, Fort Collins, Colorado 80524, made application to the Drug
Enforcement Administration (DEA) to be registered as an importer of
Etorphine Hydrochloride (9059), a basic class of controlled substance
listed in Schedule II.
    The company plans to import small quantities of the listed
controlled substance for the manufacture of analytical reference
standards.
    Any manufacturer who is presently, or is applying to be, registered
with DEA to manufacture such basic classes of controlled substances may
file comments or objections to the issuance of the proposed
registration and may, at the same time, file a written request for a
hearing on such application pursuant to 21 CFR 1301.43 and in such form
as prescribed by 21 CFR 1316.47.
    Any such written comments or objections, or requests for hearing
being sent via regular mail may be addressed, in quintuplicate, to the
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug
Enforcement Administration, Washington, DC 20537, Attention: DEA
Federal Register Representative, Liaison and Policy Section (ODL); or
any being sent via express mail should be sent to DEA Headquarters,
Attention: DEA Federal Register Representative/ODL, 2401 Jefferson
Davis Highway, Alexandria, Virginia 22301; and must be filed no later
than May 4, 2005.
    This procedure is to be conducted simultaneously with and
independent of the procedures described in 21 CFR 1301.34(b), (c), (d),
(e) and (f). As noted in a previous notice published in the Federal
Register on September 23, 1975, (40 FR 43745-46), all applicants for
registration to import a basic class of any controlled substance in
Schedule I or II are, and will continue to be required to demonstrate
to the Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control,
Drug Enforcement Administration, that the requirements for such
registration pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 958(a), 21 U.S.C. 823(a), and 21 CFR
1301.34(b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) are satisfied.

    Dated: March 25, 2005.
William J. Walker,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug
Enforcement Administration.
