AGENCY: Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Justice.

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

SUMMARY: On July 19, 2002, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) 
published an Advance Notice of Proposed rulemaking in the Federal 
Register requesting information regarding chemical mixtures containing 
the List I chemical gamma-butyrolactone (GBL) (67 FR 47493). This 
document contained an inaccurate U.S. Code citation. This document 
corrects this error.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Frank L. Sapienza, , Chief, Drug and 
Chemical Evaluation Section, Office of Diversion Control, Drug 
Enforcement Administration, Washington, DC 20537, Telephone (202) 307-
7183.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 19, 2002, the Drug Enforcement 
Administration (DEA) published an Advance Notice of proposed Rulemaking 
(ANPRM) in the Federal Register regarding chemical mixtures containing 
the List I chemical gamma-butyrolactone. Within this ANPRM, on page 
47493, in the second column, five lines from the bottom, in the 
sentence

[[Page 56777]]

that reads: ``Until regulations which delineate criteria and procedures 
for exempting specific GBL-containing chemical mixtures are finalized, 
according to 21 U.S.C. 802(39)(4)(v), DEA has treated GBL-containing 
chemical mixtures as being exempt from the chemical regulatory 
requirements of the CSA.'', DEA inadvertently miscited the U.S. Code 
citation. The sentence should read: ``Until regulations which delineate 
criteria and procedures for exempting specific GBL-containing chemical 
mixtures are finalized, according to 21 U.S.C. 802(39)(A)(v), DEA has 
treated GBL-containing chemical mixtures as being exempt from the 
chemical regulatory requirements of the CSA.'' This document corrects 
this citation.

    Dated: August 21, 2002.

Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control.
