Importer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Registration

    By Notice dated June 3, 2009, and published in the Federal Register 
on June 9, 2009, (74 FR 27347), Stepan Company, Natural Products 
Department, 100 W. Hunter Avenue, Maywood, New Jersey 07607, made 
application by renewal to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to 
be registered as an importer of Coca Leaves (9040), a basic class of 
controlled substance listed in schedule II.
    The company plans to import the listed controlled substance for the 
manufacture of bulk controlled substance for distribution to its 
customers.
    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 Stepan Company 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 Stepan 
Company 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: October 30, 2009.
Joseph T. Rannazzisi,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug 
Enforcement Administration.
