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 schedules 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 September 21, 2012, Nebraska State Penitentiary, 4201 South
14th Street, Lincoln, Nebraska 68502, made application to the Drug
Enforcement Administration (DEA) to be registered as an importer of
Pentobarbital (2270), a basic class of controlled substance listed in
schedule II.
The facility intends to import the above listed controlled
substance for legitimate use. Supplies of this particular controlled
substance are inadequate and are not available in the form needed
within the current domestic supply of the United States.
Any bulk manufacturer who is presently, or is 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 written 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 February 25, 2013.
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 a 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.
Dated: January 16, 2013.
Joseph T. Rannazzisi,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug
Enforcement Administration.
