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) 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 August 25, 2010, ISP Freetown Fine Chemicals, 238 South Main 
Street, Assonet, Massachusetts 02702, made application by renewal to 
the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to be registered as an 
importer of Phenylacetone (8501), a basic class of controlled substance 
listed in schedule II.
    The company plans to import the controlled substance to manufacture 
amphetamine.
    Any bulk manufacturers who are presently, or are applying to be, 
registered with DEA to manufacture such basic class of controlled 
substance 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 November 19, 2010.
    This procedure is to be conducted simultaneously with, and 
independent of, the procedures described in 21 CFR 301.34(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.

    Dated: October 8, 2010.
Joseph T. Rannazzisi,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug 
Enforcement Administration.
