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 
registration under 21 U.S.C. 952(a)(2) 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 March 29, 2007, Applied Science Labs, Division of Alltech 
Associates Inc., 2701 Carolean Industrial Drive, State College, 
Pennsylvania 16801, made application by renewal to the Drug Enforcement 
Administration (DEA) to be registered as an importer of the basic 
classes of controlled substances listed in schedule I and II:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    Drug                               Schedule
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heroin (9200)..............................  I
Cocaine (9041).............................  II
Codeine (9050).............................  II
Meperidine (9230)..........................  II
Methadone (9250)...........................  II
Morphine (9300)............................  II
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The company plans to import these controlled substances for the 
manufacture of 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 being sent via regular mail 
should be addressed, in quintuplicate, to the Drug Enforcement 
Administration, Office of Diversion Control, Federal Register 
Representative (ODL), Washington, DC 20537, or any being sent via 
express mail should be sent to Drug Enforcement Administration, Office 
of Diversion Control, Federal Register Representative (ODL), 2401 
Jefferson Davis Highway, Alexandria, Virginia 22301; and must be filed 
no later than August 2, 2007.
    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 
substances 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.
