ACTION: Proposed Rule; Correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This document contains a correction to the Notice of Proposed 
Rulemaking (DEA Number 139P) which was published on March 5, 1996 (61 
FR 8503). The proposed rule related to regulatory reinvention 
initiatives under the President's National Performance Review (NPR).

DATES: Written comments or objections must be received by July 3, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Comments and objections should be submitted in quintuplicate 
to the Deputy Administrator, Drug Enforcement Administration, 
Washington, D.C. 20537, Attention: DEA Federal Register Representative/
CCR.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
G. Thomas Gitchel, Chief, Liaison and Policy Section, Office of 
Diversion Control, Drug Enforcement Administration, Washington, D.C. 
20537, Telephone (202) 307-7297.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed rule that is the subject of 
this correction is intended to consolidate, eliminate, and clarify many 
of DEA's regulations designed to detect and deter the diversion of 
controlled substances and chemicals. The proposed change to Section 
1304.11(c), as published, retained the current regulatory language 
rather than the new amended language. The new rule will provide more 
flexibility for registrants by allowing them to conduct biennial 
inventories on any date within two years of the initial inventory or 
previous biennial inventory.
    Accordingly, the publication on March 5, 1996, of the proposed 
regulations under NPR, which were the subject of FR Doc. 96-4663, is 
corrected as follows:


Sec. 1304.11  [Corrected]

    On page 5824, in the first column, in Section 1304.11, paragraph 
(c), the words ``The biennial inventory may be taken on the day of the 
year on which the initial inventory was taken or on any other fixed 
date which does not vary by more than 6 months from the biennial date 
that would otherwise apply. If the registrant elects to take the 
biennial inventory on another fixed date, he/she shall notify the 
Administration of this election and of the date on which the biennial 
inventory will be taken'' is corrected to read ``The biennial inventory 
may be taken on any date which is within two years of the previous 
biennial inventory date.''

    Dated: March 13, 1996.
Gene R. Haislip,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Drug Enforcement Administration.
