Importer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Application
Pursuant to Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations 1301.34(a),
this is notice that on May 27, 2008, Chattem Chemicals, Inc.,
3801 St. Elmo Avenue, Building 18, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37409,
made application by renewal to the Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA) for registration as an importer of the

|
Phenylacetone (8501)

Raw Opium (9600)

The company plans to import the listed controlled substances
to manufacture bulk controlled substances for sale to its
customers. No comments, objections, or requests for any hearings
will be accepted on any application for registration or
re-registration to import crude opium, poppy straw, concentrate
of poppy straw, and coca leaves. As explained in the Correction
to Notice of Application pertaining to Rhodes Technologies, 72
FR 3417 (January 25, 2007), comments and requests for hearing on
applications to import narcotic raw material are not
appropriate.
Any bulk manufacturer who is presently, or is applying to be,
registered with DEA to manufacture such basic classes of
controlled substances listed in schedule I or II, which fall
under the authority of section 1002(a)(2)(B) of the Act (21
U.S.C. 952(a)(2)(B)) may, in the circumstances set forth in 21
U.S.C. 958(i), 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 September 5, 2008.
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), all
applicants for registration to import a basic class of any
controlled substance listed 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: July 29, 2008.
Joseph T. Rannazzisi,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion
Control, Drug Enforcement Administration.
