such a substance, provide manufacturers holding registrations for the
bulk manufacture of the substance an opportunity for a hearing.
Therefore, in accordance with Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations

Inc., One Broadway, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02142, made application to

The company plans to import the listed controlled substances for
clinical trials, research, analytical purposes, and distribution to its
customers.
Any bulk 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 comments or objections being sent via regular mail should
be addressed, in quintuplicate, to the Drug Enforcement Administration,

This procedure is to be conducted simultaneously with, and

(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

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.
