    By Notice dated April 17, 2009, and published in the Federal 
Register on April 29, 2009 (74 FR 19595), Almac Clinical Services,

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    Drug                               Schedule

    The company plans to import small quantities of the listed 
controlled substances in dosage form to conduct clinical trials.
    No comments or objections have been received. DEA has considered 
the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and 952(a), and determined that the 
registration of Almac Clinical Services 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, at this 
time. DEA has investigated Almac Clinical Services 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: August 21, 2009.
