    No comments or objections have been received. DEA has considered 
the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and Sec.  952(a) and determined that

protocols in effect on May 1, 1971, at this time. DEA has investigated 
Penick Corporation 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 Sec.  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: August 21, 2009.
