Garret Howard Smith, M.D., 83 FR 18882, 18910 (2018). When a registrant has committed acts inconsistent with the public interest, it must both accept responsibility and demonstrate that it has undertaken corrective measures. Holiday CVS, L.L.C., dba CVS Pharmacy Nos 219 and 5195, 77 FR 62316, 62339 (2012) (internal quotations omitted). Trust is necessarily a fact-dependent determination based on individual circumstances; therefore, the Agency looks at factors such as the acceptance of responsibility, the credibility of that acceptance as it relates to the probability of repeat violations or behavior, the nature of the misconduct that forms the basis for sanction, and the Agency’s interest in deterring similar acts. See, e.g., Robert Wayne Locklear, M.D., 86 FR 33738, 33746 (2021). Here, Registrant did not request a hearing, submit a corrective action plan, respond to the OSC/ISO, or otherwise avail itself of the opportunity to refute the Government’s case. As such, Registrant has made no representations as to its future compliance with the CSA nor made any demonstration that it can be entrusted with registration. Moreover, the evidence presented by the Government clearly shows that Registrant violated the CSA, further indicating that Registrant cannot be entrusted. Accordingly, the Agency will order the revocation of Registrant’s registration. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Order Pursuant to 28 CFR 0.100(b) and the authority vested in me by 21 U.S.C. 824(a), I hereby revoke DEA Certificate of Registration No. FB4121327 issued to Blue Mint Pharmacy. Further, pursuant to 28 CFR 0.100(b) and the authority vested in me by 21 U.S.C. 823(g)(1), I hereby deny any pending applications of Blue Mint Pharmacy, to renew or modify this registration, as well as any other pending application of Blue Mint Pharmacy, for additional registration in Texas.

This update must include a summary of work completed pursuant to the Consent Decree, assessment of the City of Revere sewer system current service level and associated review of capacity-related SSOs, development and assessment of alternatives to achieve the goal of the Consent Decree to prevent collection system surcharges or capacity-related PO 00000 Frm 00068 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 SSOs events, and a recommended plan and implementation schedule identifying projects to attain the target level of sewer system service of a tenyear design storm.

(See ADDRESSES section.) SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background The Producer Price Index (PPI) is a Principal Federal Economic Indicator consisting of a family of indexes that measures the average change over time in the selling prices received by domestic producers of goods and services. PPIs measure price change from the perspective of the seller. This contrasts with other measures, such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI), that measure price change from the purchaser’s perspective. About 10,000 PPIs for individual products and groups of products are released each month. The PPI data are widely used by the business community as well as by government and academia. In particular, the data are used as an economic indicator playing a crucial role in market analysis, as a deflator of other economic series, the basis for the calculation of price adjustments for contracts and purchase agreements, and as an input to economic research. These uses highlight the necessity of the PPI in order to understand the economy. PPI data meets a wide range of government needs by providing a description of the magnitude and composition of price changes within the economy. Government agencies view these indexes as sensitive indicators of the economic environment and closely follow each monthly release of statistics. PPI data are vital in helping the President and Congress set fiscal spending targets. The Federal Reserve PO 00000 Frm 00069 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 75331 Board Open Market Committee monitors producer prices to help determine monetary policy. Federal policy makers at the Department of the Treasury and the Council of Economic Advisors utilize these statistics to help interpret the economic environment and make decisions based upon these interpretations. Many dollardenominated measurements of economic performance, such as the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), require accurate price data for the conversion of nominal dollars into real dollars. National income accounting figures must also be inflation free in order to remain relevant to fiscal and monetary policy makers setting objectives. Price adjustment clauses in government purchasing contracts commonly use one or more PPIs. According to a conservative estimate, hundreds-ofbillions of dollars’ worth of contracts and purchase agreements employ PPIs as part of price adjustment clauses. Failure to calculate these price data would prolong the time frame needed for accurate recognition of and appropriate adaptation to economic events. The private sector also makes extensive use of PPI data. Researchers commonly use producer prices to probe and measure the interaction of market forces. Private firms use PPIs for contract escalation and price adjustment. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) recommends using PPI data for certain kinds of tax related inventory accounting, such as Last-InFirst-Out (LIFO). Private businesses extensively use PPIs for planning and operations. Firms often compare the prices they pay and receive with changes in appropriate PPIs. Economic researchers and forecasters also put PPIs to regular use. They use PPI data to better understand market forces. Research topics requiring producer price data include studying elasticities, potential lead and lag structures within price changes, and the identification of prices that cause major influence throughout the economy. Policy-makers, businesses, and researchers all require complete descriptions of price change trends if they are to perform effectively. The expansive coverage of PPIs makes them very valuable to the users described above as well as many others. II. Current Action Office of Management and Budget clearance is being sought for the extension of the PPI survey. The PPI collection is not a one-time project with an end date. The purpose of the PPI collection is to accumulate E:\FR\FM\02NON1.SGM 02NON1
