The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, the Agency, or we) is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled ``Advanced Manufacturing Technologies Designation Program.''

These technologies can be integral to ensuring quality and supporting a robust supply of drugs that are life-supporting, life-sustaining, of critical importance to providing healthcare, or in shortage. AMTs can directly improve product quality through higher capability manufacturing designs and enhanced controls (e.g., leading to fewer human errors).

Air Plan Approval; Alabama; Birmingham Limited Maintenance Plan for the 2006 24-Hour PM2.5 NAAQS
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to approve a State implementation plan (SIP) revision submitted by the State of Alabama, through the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM), via a letter dated February 2, 2021. The SIP revision includes the 2006 24-hour fine particulate matter (PM2.5) national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) Limited Maintenance Plan (LMP) for the Birmingham, Alabama maintenance area (Birmingham Area or Area). The Birmingham 2006 24-hour PM2.5 maintenance area is comprised of Jefferson County, Shelby County, and a portion of Walker County. EPA is proposing to approve the Birmingham Area LMP because it provides for the maintenance of the 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS within the Birmingham Area through the end of the second 10-year portion of the maintenance period in 2034. The effect of this action would be to incorporate into the Alabama SIP certain commitments related to maintenance of the 2006 24-hour PM2.5 NAAQS in the Birmingham Area, making them federally enforceable.

SRCAA submitted this State Plan to fulfill its requirements under the CAA in response to the EPA's promulgation of Emissions Guidelines and Compliance Times for Large MWC Constructed on or before September 20, 1994 (Emission Guidelines). The EPA is partially approving the State Plan because it meets the requirements of the Emission Guidelines for existing large MWC known to operate in Spokane County, Washington. The EPA is partially disapproving the State Plan because it omits requirements for fluidized bed combustors and air curtain incinerators, which are required elements of a State Plan.

Specific Listing for Three Currently Controlled Schedule I Substances
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is establishing a specific listing and DEA Controlled Substances Code Number (drug code) for three substances: N-(1-amino-3,3-dimethyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl)-1-butyl- 1H-indazole-3-carboxamide (also known as ADB-BUTINACA); 4-methyl-1- phenyl-2-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)pentan-1-one (also known as [alpha]-PiHP or alpha-PiHP); and 2-(methylamino)-1-(3-methylphenyl)propan-1-one (also known as 3-MMC or 3-methylmethcathinone) in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). Although ADB-BUTINACA, [alpha]-PiHP, and 3-MMC are not specifically listed in schedule I of the CSA with their own unique drug codes, they are schedule I controlled substances in the United States because they are positional isomers of AB-PINACA (controlled January 30, 2015), [alpha]-PHP (controlled July 18, 2019), and mephedrone (controlled as a hallucinogen July 9, 2012), respectively, each of which are schedule I hallucinogens. Therefore, DEA is simply amending the schedule I hallucinogenic substances list in its regulations to separately include ADB-BUTINACA, [alpha]-PiHP, and 3-MMC.
Schedules of Controlled Substances: Placement of 2,5-dimethoxy-4-iodoamphetamine (DOI) and 2,5-dimethoxy-4-chloroamphetamine (DOC) in Schedule I
The Drug Enforcement Administration proposes placing two phenethylamine hallucinogens, as identified in this proposed rule, in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. This action is being taken, in part, to enable the United States to meet its obligations under the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances for one of these substances 2,5-dimethoxy-4-chloroamphetamine. If finalized, this action would impose the regulatory controls and administrative, civil, and criminal sanctions applicable to schedule I controlled substances on persons who handle (manufacture, distribute, reverse distribute, import, export, engage in research, conduct instructional activities or chemical analysis with, or possess), or propose to handle these two specific controlled substances.
