Designation of Halides of 4-Anilinopiperidine as List I Chemicals
Document Number: 2023-07454
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2023-04-14
Agency: Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice
The Drug Enforcement Administration is proposing to modify the listing of the list I chemical, N-phenylpiperidin-4-amine (also known as 4-anilinopiperidine; N-phenyl-4-piperidinamine; 4-AP) (hereinafter referred to as 4-anilinopiperidine), to include halides of 4- anilinopiperidine. The current listing of 4-anilinopiperidine includes its amides, its carbamates, and its salts, as list I chemicals under the Controlled Substances Act. The Drug Enforcement Administration proposes the new listing to read as follows: N-phenylpiperidin-4-amine (4-anilinopiperidine; N-phenyl-4-piperidinamine; 4-AP), its amides, its carbamates, its halides, its salts, and any combination thereof, whenever the existence of such is possible, as a list I chemical under the Controlled Substances Act.

Definition of “Cannabimimetic Agents” and Assignment of an Administration Controlled Substances Code Number for All “Cannabimimetic Agents”
Document Number: 2023-07578
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2023-04-13
Agency: Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice
On July 9, 2012, the President signed into law the Synthetic Drug Abuse Prevention Act of 2012. The Synthetic Drug Abuse Prevention Act of 2012 included a definition of ``cannabimimetic agents'' that are controlled under schedule I. The Drug Enforcement Administration is proposing this rule to address the broader definition of ``cannabimimetic agents,'' identify 18 additional substances that meet the definition, and consolidate most existing administration controlled substances code numbers (drug codes) into a single drug code number for substances that meet this definition. The listing for two schedule I ``cannabimimetic agents'' that are under international control, JWH-018 and AM2201, will be moved to the ``hallucinogens'' paragraph of schedule I in order to retain the existing drug codes for these two substances to facilitate quota and international reporting requirements. While the 18 additional substances are already controlled under schedule I because they meet the definition of ``cannabimimetic agents,'' this proposed rule establishes a single new drug code number for these and most other substances meeting this definition. This single drug code will simplify the registration and recordkeeping requirements for any ``cannabimimetic agents'' that the Drug Enforcement Administration may register persons to handle.
Schedules of Controlled Substances: Placement of Nine Specific Fentanyl-Related Substances in Schedule I
Document Number: 2023-07576
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2023-04-13
Agency: Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice
The Drug Enforcement Administration proposes placing nine substances, as identified in this proposed rule, in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act. These nine substances fall within the definition of fentanyl-related substances set forth in the February 6, 2018, temporary scheduling order. Through the Temporary Reauthorization and Study of Emergency Scheduling of Fentanyl Analogues Act, which became law on February 6, 2020, Congress extended the temporary control of fentanyl-related substances until May 6, 2021. This temporary order was subsequently extended multiple times, most recently on December 29, 2022, through the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, which extended the order until December 31, 2024. If finalized, this action would make permanent the existing 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 these nine specific controlled substances.
Designation of 4-Piperidone as a List I Chemical
Document Number: 2023-07538
Type: Rule
Date: 2023-04-12
Agency: Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is finalizing the control of 4-piperidone, its acetals, its amides, its carbamates, its salts, and salts of its acetals, its amides, and its carbamates, and any combination thereof, whenever the existence of such is possible, as a list I chemical under the Controlled Substances Act. DEA proposed control of 4-piperidone due to its use in clandestine laboratories to illicitly manufacture the schedule II controlled substance fentanyl. This rulemaking finalizes the control of 4-piperidone as a list I chemical.
Special Tribal Criminal Jurisdiction Reimbursement
Document Number: 2023-07519
Type: Rule
Date: 2023-04-11
Agency: Department of Justice
The Violence Against Women Act Reauthorization Act of 2022 (VAWA 2022) authorized a new program to reimburse Tribal governments (or authorized designees of Tribal governments) for expenses incurred in exercising ``special Tribal criminal jurisdiction'' (STCJ) over non- Indians who commit certain covered crimes in Indian country. This rule will implement this new Tribal Reimbursement Program within the Department of Justice's Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) by providing details on how it will be administered, including eligibility, frequency of reimbursement, costs that can be reimbursed, the annual maximum allowable reimbursement per Tribe, and conditions for waiver of the annual maximum.

Specific Listing for Eutylone, a Currently Controlled Schedule I Substance
Document Number: 2023-07335
Type: Rule
Date: 2023-04-10
Agency: Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is establishing a specific listing and DEA Controlled Substances Code Number (drug code) for 1-(1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)-2-(ethylamino)butan-1-one (also known as eutylone or bk-EBDB) in schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). Although eutylone is not specifically listed in schedule I of the CSA with its own unique drug code, it has been controlled in the United States since March 7, 2014, as a positional isomer of pentylone, a schedule I hallucinogen. Therefore, DEA is simply amending the schedule I hallucinogenic substances list in its regulations to separately include eutylone.
