Department of Justice 2020 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

On October 11, 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved a new drug application for Reyvow (lasmiditan) tablets for oral use. Lasmiditan is chemically known as [2,4,6-trifluoro-N-(6-(1- methylpiperidine-4-carbonyl)pyridine-2-yl-benzamide]. Thereafter, the Department of Health and Human Services provided the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) with a scheduling recommendation to place lasmiditan in schedule V of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). In accordance with the CSA, as revised by the Improving Regulatory Transparency for New Medical Therapies Act, DEA is hereby issuing an interim final rule placing lasmiditan, including its salts, isomers, and salts of isomers whenever the existence of such salts, isomers, and salts of isomers is possible, in schedule V of the CSA.

The Acting Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration is issuing this temporary scheduling order to extend the temporary schedule I status of cyclopentyl fentanyl (N-(1- phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)-N-phenylcyclopentanecarboxamide), isobutyryl fentanyl (N-(1-phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)-N-phenylisobutyramide), para- chloroisobutyryl fentanyl (N-(4-chlorophenyl)-N-(1-phenethylpiperidin- 4-yl)isobutyramide), para-methoxybutyryl fentanyl (N-(4-methoxyphenyl)- N-(1-phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)butyramide), and valeryl fentanyl (N-(1- phenethylpiperidin-4-yl)-N-phenylpentanamide) including their isomers, esters, ethers, salts, and salts of isomers, esters and ethers. The schedule I status of cyclopentyl fentanyl, isobutyryl fentanyl, para- chloroisobutyryl fentanyl, para-methoxybutyryl fentanyl, and valeryl fentanyl currently is in effect until February 1, 2020. This temporary order will extend the temporary scheduling of cyclopentyl fentanyl, isobutyryl fentanyl, para-chloroisobutyryl fentanyl, para- methoxybutyryl fentanyl, and valeryl fentanyl for one year, or until the permanent scheduling action for these substances is completed, whichever occurs first.

The Drug Enforcement Administration places methyl 2-(1-(5- fluoropentyl)-1H-indazole-3-carboxamido)-3,3-dimethylbutanoat e [5F-ADB; 5F-MDMB-PINACA]; methyl 2-(1-(5-fluoropentyl)-1H-indazole-3- carboxamido)-3-methylbutanoate [5F-AMB]; N-(adamantan-1-yl)-1-(5- fluoropentyl)-1H-indazole-3-carboxamide [5F-APINACA, 5F-AKB48]; N-(1- amino-3,3-dimethyl-1-oxobutan-2-yl)-1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-1H-ind azole-3- carboxamide [ADB-FUBINACA]; methyl 2-(1-(cyclohexylmethyl)-1H-indole-3- carboxamido)-3,3-dimethylbutanoate [MDMB-CHMICA, MMB-CHMINACA]; and methyl 2-(1-(4-fluorobenzyl)-1H-indazole-3-carboxamido)-3,3- dimethylbutanoate [MDMB-FUBINACA], including their salts, isomers, and salts of isomers whenever the existence of such salts, isomers, and salts of isomers is possible, in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. This action continues the imposition of the regulatory controls and administrative, civil, and criminal sanctions applicable to schedule I controlled substances on persons who handle (manufacture, distribute, import, export, engage in research, conduct instructional activities or chemical analysis, or possess), or propose to handle 5F- ADB, 5F-AMB, 5F-APINACA, ADB-FUBINACA, MDMB-CHMICA, and MDMB-FUBINACA.

Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974, and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular No. A-108, notice is hereby given that the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS Office), a component within the United States Department of Justice (DOJ or Department), proposes to develop a new system of records notice titled COPS Management System: NexGen (CMS:NxG), JUSTICE/COPS-003. The COPS Office proposes to establish this system of records to consolidate its various business databases, applications, and web applications under one umbrella to support the grant-making and grant management processes from the pre-award phase, including posting solicitations and administering applications for COPS Office funding, to the post-award phase, including budget modifications and award monitoring activities. Previously, grant-making and grant management was handled by a legacy system covered under the DOJ-003 Correspondence Management Systems (CMS) SORN. Because certain aspects of NexGen are more consistent with a separate system of records, COPS is issuing a new SORN to make that clear.
