<br />
<br />AGENCY: Drug Enforcement
<br />Administration (DEA). Justice.
<br />ACTION: Notice of proposed year 2000
<br />aggregate production quotas.
<br />
<br />SUMMARY: This notice proposes initial
<br />year 2000 aggregate production quotas
<br />for controlled substances in Schedules I
<br />and II of the Controlled Substances Act
<br />(CSA) ,
<br />DATES: Comments or objections should
<br />be received on or before November 22,
<br />1999,
<br />ADDRESSES: Send comments or
<br />objections to the Deputy Administrator.
<br />Drug Enforcement Administration,
<br />Washington, D.e. 20537, Attn.: DEA
<br />Federal Register Representative (CCR) ,
<br />FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
<br />Frank L. Sapienza, Chief. Drug and
<br />Chemical Evaluation Section. Drug
<br />Enforcement Administration,
<br />Washington, D,e. 20537, Telephone:
<br />(202) 307-7183.
<br />SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
<br />306 of the CSA (21 USe. 826) requires
<br />that the Attorney General establish
<br />aggregate production quotas for each
<br />basic class of controlled substance listed
<br />in Schedules I and II. This
<br />responsibility has been delegated to the
<br />Administrator of the DEA by Section
<br />0,100 of Title 28 of the Code of Federal
<br />Regulations. The Administrator. in turn,
<br />has redelegated this function to the
<br />Deputy Administrator of the DEA
<br />pursuant to Section 0.104 of Title 28 of
<br />the Code of Federal Regulations.
<br />The proposed year 2000 aggregate
<br />production quotas represent those
<br />quantities of controlled substances that
<br />may be produced in the United States in
<br />2000 to provide adequate supplies of
<br />each substance for: the estimated
<br />medical. scientific, research. and
<br />industrial needs of the United States;
<br />lawful export requirements; and the
<br />establishment and maintenance of
<br />reserve stocks. These quotas do not
<br />
<br />include imports of controlled
<br />substances for use in industrial
<br />processes.
<br />
<br />In determining the proposed year
<br />2000 aggregate production quotas. the
<br />Deputy Administrator considered the
<br />following factors: total actual 1998 and
<br />estimated 1999 and 2000 net disposals
<br />of each substance by all manufacturers:
<br />estimates of 1999 year-end inventories
<br />of each substance and of any substance
<br />manufactured from it and trends in
<br />accumulation of such inventories;
<br />product development requirements of
<br />both bulk and finished dosage from
<br />manufacturers: projected demand as
<br />indicated by procurement quota
<br />applications filed pursuant to Section
<br />1303.12 of Title 21 of the Code of
<br />Federal Regulations: and other pertinent
<br />information.
<br />
<br />In the past. the basic class
<br />methamphetamine has been listed as
<br />desoxyephedrine for aggregate
<br />production quota purposes. For
<br />clarification. the desoxyephedrine
<br />aggregate production quota was divided
<br />into a methamphetamine for sale quota
<br />and a levo-desoxyephedrine quote. The
<br />aggregate production quota for
<br />methamphetamine for conversion was
<br />listed separately. In order to more
<br />accurately reflect the nomenclature used
<br />in Section 1308.12(d) of Title 21 of the
<br />Code of Federal Regulations. levo-
<br />desoxyephedrine, methamphetamine
<br />(for sale) and methamphetamine (for
<br />conversion) are now listed under the
<br />basic class of methamphetamine.
<br />
<br />Pursuant to Section 1303 of Title 21
<br />of the Code of Federal Regulations. the
<br />Oeputy Administrator of the DEA will.
<br />in early 2000, adjust aggregate
<br />production quotas and individual
<br />manufacturing quotas allocated for the
<br />year based upon 1999 year-end
<br />inventory and actual 1999 disposition
<br />data supplied by quota recipients for
<br />each basic class of Schedule I or II
<br />controlled substance.
<br />
<br />Therefore, under the authority vested
<br />in the Attorney General by Section 306
<br />of the CSA of 1970 (21 U,S.e. 826).
<br />delegated to the Administrator of the
<br />DEA by Section 0.100 of Title 28 of the
<br />Code of Federal Regulations, and
<br />redelegated to the Deputy Administrator
<br />pursuant to Section 0.104 of Title 28 of
<br />the Code of Federal Regulations, the
<br />Deputy Administrator hereby proposes
<br />that the year 2000 aggregate production
<br />quotas for the following controlled
<br />substances, expressed in grams of
<br />anhydrous acid or base. by established
<br />as follows:
