   CHAPTER II--DRUG ENFORCEMENT ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
 
PART 1303--QUOTAS--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 1303.26  Reduction in individual manufacturing quotas.

    The Administrator may at any time reduce an individual manufacturing 
quota for a basic class of controlled substance listed in Schedule I or 
II which he has previously fixed in order to prevent the aggregate of 
the individual manufacturing quotas and import permits outstanding or to 
be granted from exceeding the aggregate production quota which has been 
established for that class pursuant of Sec. 1303.11, as adjusted 
pursuant to Sec. 1303.13. If a quota assigned to a new manufacturer 
pursuant to Sec. 1303.23(b), or if a quota assigned to any manufacturer 
is increased pursuant to Sec. 1303.24(c), or if an import permit issued 
to an importer pursuant to part 1312 of this chapter, causes the total 
quantity of a basic class to be manufactured and imported during the 
year to exceed the aggregate production quota which has been established 
for that class pursuant to Sec. 1303.11, as adjusted pursuant to 
Sec. 1303.13, the Administrator may proportionately reduce the 
individual manufacturing quotas and import permits of all other 
registrants to keep the aggregate production quota within the limits 
originally established, or, alternatively, the Administrator may reduce 
the individual manufacturing quota of any registrant whose quota is 
suspended pursuant to Sec. 1303.24(b) or Sec. 1301.36 of this chapter, 
or is abandoned pursuant to Sec. 1303.27.
