Manufacturer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Registration

    By Notice dated March 16, 2010, and published in the Federal 
Register on March 24, 2010, (75 FR 14189), Norac Inc., 405 S. Motor 
Avenue, P.O. Box 577, Azusa, California 91702-3232, made application by 
renewal to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to be registered 
as a bulk manufacturer of the basic classes of controlled substances:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    Drug                               Schedule
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gamma Hydroxybutyric Acid (2010)...........  I
Tetrahydrocannabinols (7370)...............  I
Methamphetamine (1105).....................  II
Nabilone (7379)............................  II
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With regard to Gamma Hydroxybutyric Acid (2010), 
Tetrahydrocannabinols (7370), and Methamphetamine (1105) only, the 
company manufactures these controlled substances in bulk solely for 
domestic distribution within the United States to customers engaged in 
dosage-form manufacturing.
    With regard to Nabilone (7379) only, the company presently 
manufactures a small amount of this controlled substance in bulk solely 
to conduct manufacturing process development internally within the 
company. It is the company's intention that, when the manufacturing 
process is refined to the point that its Nabilone bulk product is 
available for commercial use, the company will export the controlled 
substance in bulk solely to customers engaged in dosage-form 
manufacturing outside the United States. The company is aware of the 
requirement to obtain a DEA registration as an exporter to conduct this 
activity.
    No comments or objections have been received. DEA has considered 
the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and determined that the registration of 
Norac, Inc. to manufacture the listed basic classes of controlled 
substances is consistent with the public interest at this time. DEA has 
investigated Norac, 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. 823(a), and in accordance with 21 CFR 1301.33, the above 
named company is granted registration as a bulk manufacturer of the 
basic classes of controlled substances listed.

    Dated: November 29, 2010.
Joseph T. Rannazzisi,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug 
Enforcement Administration.
