    The company plans to import the listed controlled substances for

standing to object or to request a hearing on this application.

    DEA has considered the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and 952(a) and 
determined that the registration of Mallinckrodt 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. DEA has 
investigated Mallinckrodt Inc. to ensure that the company's 
registration is consistent with the public interest. The investigation 
has included inspection and testing of the company's physical security 
systems, verification of the company's compliance with state and local 
laws, and a review of 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.

    Dated: October 31, 2006.

Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug
