Type: Notice
Date: 2020-03-10
Agency: Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) published a document in the Federal Register on November 22, 2019, concerning a notice of application. As that document correctly indicated, the applicant, S&B Pharma, Inc., DBA Norac Pharma, 405 South Motor Avenue, Azusa, California 91702-3232 applied to be registered as a bulk manufacturer of a number of controlled substances, to include applying for authorization in order to synthetically manufacture using drug code 7360 (marihuana).

Registration Requirements for Narcotic Treatment Programs With Mobile Components
Document Number: 2020-03627
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2020-02-26
Agency: Drug Enforcement Administration, Department of Justice
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) proposes to revise the existing regulations for narcotic treatment programs (NTPs) to allow a mobile component associated with the registered program to be considered a coincident activity. The NTP registrants that operate or wish to operate mobile components (in the state that the registrant is registered in) to dispense narcotic drugs in schedules II-V at a remote location for the purpose of maintenance or detoxification treatment would not be required to obtain a separate registration for a mobile component. This proposed rule would waive the requirement of a separate registration at each principal place of business or professional practice where controlled substances are dispensed for those NTPs with mobile components that fully comply with the requirements of the proposed rule, once finalized. These revisions to the regulations are intended to make maintenance or detoxification treatments more widely available, while ensuring that safeguards are in place to reduce the likelihood of diversion.

Document Number: 2020-00664
Type: Rule
Date: 2020-01-24
