BILLING CODE 4410–15–P
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Drug Enforcement Administration
Importer of Controlled Substances;
Notice of Registration
By Notice dated January 9, 2009, and
published in the Federal Register on
January 21, 2009, (74 FR 3641), Kenco
VPI, Division of Kenco Group, Inc., 350
Corporate Place, Chattanooga,
Tennessee 37419, made application by
renewal to the Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA) to be registered as
an importer of Nabilone (7379), a basic
class of controlled substance listed in
schedule II.
The company plans to import the
listed controlled substance for
distribution to its customers.
One comment was received
concerning this application. The
comment states that DEA added
Schedule II and the drug code for
Nabilone (7379) to Kenco VPI’s importer
registration without the benefit of the
required legal process for modifying the
DEA registration. The comment further
states that, after Kenco VPI was properly
registered as an importer of Nabilone on
PO 00000
Frm 00122
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
6061
November 1, 2006, there was no further
mention of Nabilone in any subsequent
notices of Kenco VPI’s applications or
approval of its applications published in
the Federal Register by DEA until the
application published on January 21,
2009. (74 FR 3641) The comment also
requested clarification whether Kenco
VPI imports Nabilone in finished drug
product in dosage form or in bulk active
pharmaceutical ingredient (API) form.
Finally, the comment inquires if the
aggregate national quota for Nabilone
established by DEA will be affected by
Kenco VPI’s application.
DEA’s response to the issues raised in
the comment are as follows: DEA has
already admitted that Kenco VPI’s
importer registration received Schedule
II and the drug code for Nabilone
without the benefit of the required legal
process. On August 1, 2006, a Notice of
Application (71 FR 43526) was
published for Kenco VPI in the Federal
Register. Subsequently, on November 1,
2006, a Notice of Registration (71 FR
64298) was published. These notices
addressed DEA’s issuance to Kenco
VPI’s importer registration of Schedule
II and the drug code for Nabilone
without the benefit of the required legal
process. As a result of the publication of
these notices, Kenco VPI’s importer
registration has been legally authorized
to import Nabilone, effective: November
1, 2006.
DEA rejects the comment’s assertion
that, between November 1, 2006 and
January 21, 2009, there was no further
mention of Nabilone in any subsequent
notices of Kenco VPI’s applications or
approval of its applications published in
the Federal Register by DEA. This
assertion is incorrect. Four notices were
published between November 1, 2006
and January 21, 2009 as follows: (71 FR
66974, November 17, 2006), (72 FR
8792, February 27, 2007), (73 FR 14840,
March 19, 2008), (73 FR 31510, June 2,
2008). Each of these notices mentions
Nabilone.
With regard to the comment’s request
for clarification of whether Kenco VPI
imports Nabilone in finished drug
product in dosage form or in bulk active
pharmaceutical ingredient (API) form,
the company imports finished drug
products in dosage form only. Kenco
VPI does not import Nabilone in bulk
active pharmaceutical ingredient (API)
form. Since there are no domestic
sources of Nabilone in finished drug
product form available within the
United States and since the product
which Kenco VPI imports has been
approved for medical use within the
United States by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration, DEA finds no reason to
reject Kenco VPI’s application. The

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 24 / Friday, February 5, 2010 / Notices
aggregate national quota for Nabilone
established by DEA will not be affected
by this application of Kenco VPI since
the company imports Nabilone in
finished drug product form only.
DEA has considered the factors in 21
U.S.C. 823(a) and 952(a) and determined
that the registration of Kenco VPI 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 Kenco VPI 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.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Drug Enforcement Administration
Importer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Registration
By Notice dated January 9, 2009, and published in the Federal
Register on January 21, 2009, (74 FR 3641), Kenco VPI, Division of
Kenco Group, Inc., 350 Corporate Place, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37419,
made application by renewal to the Drug Enforcement Administration
(DEA) to be registered as an importer of Nabilone (7379), a basic class
of controlled substance listed in schedule II.
The company plans to import the listed controlled substance for
distribution to its customers.
One comment was received concerning this application. The comment
states that DEA added Schedule II and the drug code for Nabilone (7379)
to Kenco VPI's importer registration without the benefit of the
required legal process for modifying the DEA registration. The comment
further states that, after Kenco VPI was properly registered as an
importer of Nabilone on November 1, 2006, there was no further mention
of Nabilone in any subsequent notices of Kenco VPI's applications or
approval of its applications published in the Federal Register by DEA
until the application published on January 21, 2009. (74 FR 3641) The
comment also requested clarification whether Kenco VPI imports Nabilone
in finished drug product in dosage form or in bulk active
pharmaceutical ingredient (API) form. Finally, the comment inquires if
the aggregate national quota for Nabilone established by DEA will be
affected by Kenco VPI's application.
DEA's response to the issues raised in the comment are as follows:
DEA has already admitted that Kenco VPI's importer registration
received Schedule II and the drug code for Nabilone without the benefit
of the required legal process. On August 1, 2006, a Notice of
Application (71 FR 43526) was published for Kenco VPI in the Federal
Register. Subsequently, on November 1, 2006, a Notice of Registration
(71 FR 64298) was published. These notices addressed DEA's issuance to
Kenco VPI's importer registration of Schedule II and the drug code for
Nabilone without the benefit of the required legal process. As a result
of the publication of these notices, Kenco VPI's importer registration
has been legally authorized to import Nabilone, effective: November 1,
2006.
DEA rejects the comment's assertion that, between November 1, 2006
and January 21, 2009, there was no further mention of Nabilone in any
subsequent notices of Kenco VPI's applications or approval of its
applications published in the Federal Register by DEA. This assertion
is incorrect. Four notices were published between November 1, 2006 and
January 21, 2009 as follows: (71 FR 66974, November 17, 2006), (72 FR
8792, February 27, 2007), (73 FR 14840, March 19, 2008), (73 FR 31510,
June 2, 2008). Each of these notices mentions Nabilone.
With regard to the comment's request for clarification of whether
Kenco VPI imports Nabilone in finished drug product in dosage form or
in bulk active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) form, the company
imports finished drug products in dosage form only. Kenco VPI does not
import Nabilone in bulk active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) form.
Since there are no domestic sources of Nabilone in finished drug
product form available within the United States and since the product
which Kenco VPI imports has been approved for medical use within the
United States by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, DEA finds no
reason to reject Kenco VPI's application. The
[[Page 6062]]
aggregate national quota for Nabilone established by DEA will not be
affected by this application of Kenco VPI since the company imports
Nabilone in finished drug product form only.
DEA has considered the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and 952(a) and
determined that the registration of Kenco VPI 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 Kenco VPI 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 Sec. 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.
