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), 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 Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations
Sec. 1301.34(a), this is notice that on March 10, 2009, Almac Clinical
Services Inc. (ACSI), 2661 Audubon Road, Audubon, Pennsylvania 19403,
has 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 II:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Drug Schedule
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oxycodone (9143)............................................. II
Fentanyl (9801).............................................. II
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The company plans to import small quantities of the listed
controlled substances in dosage form to conduct clinical trials.
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 should be addressed, in
quintuplicate, to the Drug Enforcement Administration, Office of
Diversion Control, Federal Register Representative (ODL), 8701
Morrissette Drive, Springfield, Virginia 22152; and must be filed no
later than May 29, 2009.
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 the 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.
