Drug Enforcement Administration

 
Importer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Registration

    By Notice dated November 5, 2007 and published in the Federal 
Register on November 16, 2007, (72 FR 64674), Aptuit, 10245 Hickman 
Mills Drive, Kansas City, Missouri 64137, made application by renewal 
to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to be registered as an 
importer of Marihuana (7360), a basic class of controlled substance 
listed in schedule I.
    The company plans to import a finished pharmaceutical product 
containing cannabis extracts in dosage form for packaging for a 
clinical trial study.
    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 Aptuit to import the basic class of controlled 
substance 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 Aptuit 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 class of controlled 
substance listed.

    Dated: February 12, 2008.
Joseph T. Rannazzisi,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug 
Enforcement Administration.
