SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Fort Dodge Animal Health, Division of Wyeth, a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer, Inc., 235 East 42d St., New York, NY 10017 (Pfizer) has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, the following 18 approved NADAs and 1 approved ANADA to Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc., 2621 North Belt Highway, St. Joseph, MO 64506–2002 VerDate Nov<24>2008 14:25 Mar 04, 2010 Jkt 220001 (Boehringer): NADA 15–030, 32–702, 34–879, 45–290, 55–021, 55–022, 55– 030, 55–048, 55–054, 55 058, 97–222, 108–114, 119–688, 140–684, 140–806, 140–854, 141–096, and 141–274; and ANADA 200–088. In addition, Fort Dodge Animal Health, Division of Wyeth Holdings Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer, has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, the following 15 approved NADAs to Boehringer: NADA 6–084, 8–774, 12–198, 13–624, 33–127, 33–318, 33–319, 33–373, 40– 181, 46–146, 65–269, 99–388, 122–271, 122–272, and 141–108. Accordingly, the agency is amending the regulations in 21 CFR parts 520, 522, 524, and 526 to reflect the transfer of ownership. In addition, several sections are being revised to reflect the current format. This rule does not meet the definition of ‘‘rule’’ in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ‘‘particular applicability.’’ Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801–808.

ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is finalizing, without change, the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking published in the Federal Register on March 31, 2008 (73 FR 16793). The Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005 (CMEA) requires DEA to collect from importers of ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine all information known to the importer on the foreign chain of distribution of the chemical from the manufacturer to the importer. This rule amends DEA regulations to incorporate the requirement for this information. DATES: Effective Dates: This Final Rule is effective May 4, 2010. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mark W. Caverly, Chief, Liaison and Policy Section, Office of Diversion Control, Drug Enforcement Administration, 8701 Morrissette Drive, Springfield, VA 22152, Telephone (202) 307–7297. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background and Legal Authority DEA implements the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970, often referred to as the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) and the Controlled Substances Import and Export Act (CSIEA) (21 U.S.C. 801–971), as amended. DEA publishes the implementing regulations for these statutes in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), parts 1300 to 1399. These regulations are designed to ensure that there is a sufficient supply of controlled substances for legitimate medical, scientific, research, and industrial purposes and to deter the diversion of controlled substances to illegal purposes. The CSA mandates that DEA establish a closed system of control for manufacturing, distributing, and dispensing controlled substances. Any person who manufactures, distributes, dispenses, imports, exports, or conducts research or chemical analysis with PO 00000 Frm 00004 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 controlled substances must register with DEA (unless exempt) and comply with the applicable requirements for the activity. The CSA as amended also requires DEA to regulate the manufacture, distribution, import, and export of chemicals that may be used to manufacture controlled substances illegally. Listed chemicals that are classified as List I chemicals are important to the manufacture of controlled substances. Those classified as List II chemicals may be used to manufacture controlled substances. On March 9, 2006, the President signed the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005 (CMEA), which is Title VII of the USA PATRIOT Improvement and Reauthorization Act of 2005 (Pub. L. 109–177). The changes made by this rule are needed to implement the statutory provisions. This Final Rule amends the language of the regulations to be consistent with that of the statute. Import/Export Declaration Requirements Under existing DEA regulations (21 CFR part 1313), importers of listed chemicals are required to provide DEA with advance notification of imports unless the importer has met the requirements as a regular importer of the listed chemical; for regular importers, the notification must be filed by the date of importation. In the importation declaration (DEA Form 486), the importer must provide information on the chemical (name, size and weight of the container, number of containers, total weight of chemical), importation (date, foreign port of shipment, United States port of entry) and the foreign supplier (name, address, contact information). CMEA imposes several new requirements on imports of listed chemicals. CMEA amended 21 U.S.C. 971, ‘‘Notification, suspension of shipment, and penalties with respect to importation and exportation of listed chemicals,’’ to require DEA to collect information regarding persons to whom the U.S. importer, exporter, broker, or trader transfers the listed chemical, actual quantities shipped, and the date the shipment occurred. If the person to whom the listed chemical is to be transferred is not a regular customer of the U.S. importer or exporter, then the importer or exporter must notify DEA no later than 15 days before the transaction is to take place.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal 
drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for 18 new animal drug 
applications (NADAs) and 1 abbreviated new animal drug application 
(ANADA) from Fort Dodge Animal Health, Division of Wyeth, a wholly 
owned subsidiary of Pfizer, Inc., to Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, 
Inc. (Boehringer). In addition, FDA is amending the animal drug 
regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for 15 NADAs from Fort Dodge 
Animal Health, Division of Wyeth Holdings Corp., a wholly owned 
subsidiary of Pfizer, Inc., to Boehringer.

DATES: This rule is effective March 5, 2010.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David R. Newkirk, Center for 
Veterinary Medicine (HFV-100), Food and Drug Administration, 7520 
Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 240-276-8307, e-mail:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Fort Dodge Animal Health, Division of Wyeth, 
a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer, Inc., 235 East 42d St., New York, 
NY 10017 (Pfizer) has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership 
of, and all rights and interest in, the following 18 approved NADAs and 
1 approved ANADA to Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc., 2621 North 
Belt Highway, St. Joseph, MO 64506-2002 (Boehringer): NADA 15-030, 32-
702, 34-879, 45-290, 55-021, 55-022, 55-030, 55-048, 55-054, 55 058, 
97-222, 108-114, 119-688, 140-684, 140-806, 140-854, 141-096, and 141-
274; and ANADA 200-088. In addition, Fort Dodge Animal Health, Division 
of Wyeth Holdings Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pfizer, has 
informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and 
interest in, the following 15 approved NADAs to Boehringer: NADA 6-084, 
8-774, 12-198, 13-624, 33-127, 33-318, 33-319, 33-373, 40-181, 46-146, 
65-269, 99-388, 122-271, 122-272, and 141-108. Accordingly, the agency 
is amending the regulations in 21 CFR parts 520, 522, 524, and 526 to 
reflect the transfer of ownership. In addition, several sections are 
being revised to reflect the current format.
    This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 
804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' 
Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements 
in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
