    The company plans to import the listed controlled substances as raw

distribution to its customers.

    No comments or objections have been received. DEA has considered 

the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and 952(a), and determined that the 

registration of Johnson Matthey, Inc. to import the basic classes of 

controlled substances is consistent with the public interest, and with 

United States obligations under international treaties, conventions, or 

protocols in effect on May 1, 1971, at this time. DEA has investigated 

Johnson Matthey, Inc. to ensure that the company's registration is 

consistent with the public interest. The investigation has included 

inspection and testing of the company's physical security systems, 

verification of the company's compliance with state and local laws, and 

a review of the company's background and history. Therefore, pursuant 

to 21 U.S.C. 952(a) and 958(a), and in accordance with 21 CFR 1301.34, 

the above named company is granted registration as an importer of the 

basic classes of controlled substances listed.



    Dated: May 28, 2010.
