ACTION:

Notice of registration.

SUMMARY:

Cody Laboratories, Inc. applied to be registered as an importer of certain basic classes of controlled substances. The DEA grants Cody Laboratories, Inc. registration as an importer of those controlled substances.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

By notice dated August 27, 2014, and published in the Federal Register on September 4, 2014, 79 FR 52762, Cody Laboratories, Inc., 601 Yellowstone Avenue, Cody, Wyoming 82414-9321, applied to be registered as an importer of certain basic classes of controlled substances. No comments or objections were submitted to this notice. Comments and requests for hearings on applications to import narcotic raw material are not appropriate. 72 FR 3417 (January 25, 2007).

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has considered the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823, 952(a) and 958(a) and determined that the registration of Cody Laboratories, Inc. to import the basic classes of controlled substances is consistent with the public interest and with United States obligations under international treaties, conventions, or protocols in effect on May 1, 1971. The DEA investigated the company's maintenance of effective controls against diversion by inspecting and testing the company's physical security systems, verifying the company's compliance with state and local laws, and reviewing the company's background and history.

Therefore, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 952(a) and 958(a), and in accordance with 21 CFR 1301.34, the above-named company is granted registration as an importer of the basic classes of controlled substances listed:

Controlled substance Schedule
Phenylacetone (8501) II
Poppy Straw Concentrate (9670) II
Tapentadol (9780) II

The company plans to import narcotic raw materials for manufacturing and further distribution to its customers. The company is registered with the DEA as a manufacturer of several controlled substances that are manufactured from poppy straw concentrate.

The company plans to import an intermediate form of tapentadol (9780) to bulk manufacture tapentadol for distribution to its customers.

Dated: January 9, 2015.
