    By Notice dated October 11, 2006 and published in the Federal 
Register on October 18, 2006, (71 FR 61510-61511), Boehringer Ingelheim 
Chemical, Inc., 2820 N. Normandy Drive, Petersburg, Virginia 23805, 
made application by renewal to the Drug Enforcement Administration 
(DEA) to be registered as an importer of Phenylacetone (8501), a basic 
class of controlled substance listed in schedule II.
    The company plans to import the listed controlled substance to bulk 
manufacture amphetamine.
    No comments or objections have been received. DEA has considered 
the factors in 21 U.S.C. Sec.  823(a) and Sec.  952(a) and determined 
that the registration of Boehringer Ingelheim Chemical, Inc. to import 
the basic class of controlled substance is consistent with the public 
interest and with United States obligations under international 
treaties, conventions, or protocols in effect on May 1, 1971, at this 
time. DEA has investigated Boehringer Ingelheim Chemical, 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. Sec.  952(a) 
and Sec.  958(a), and in accordance with 21 CFR 1301.34, the above 
named company is granted registration as an importer of the basic class 
of controlled substance listed.

    Dated: January 23, 2007.
