Drug Enforcement Administration


Importer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Application

    Pursuant to Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations 1301.34 (a), this 
is notice that on April 10, 2013, Arizona Department of Corrections, 
ASPC-Florence, 1305 E. Butte Avenue, Florence, Arizona 85132, made 
application by renewal to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to 
be registered as an importer of Pentobarbital (2270), a basic class of 
controlled substance listed in schedule II.
    The facility intends to import the above listed controlled 
substance for legitimate use. Supplies of this particular controlled 
substance are inadequate and are not available in the form needed 
within the current domestic supply of the United States.
    Any bulk manufacturer who is presently, or is applying to be, 
registered with DEA to manufacture such basic class of controlled 
substance listed in schedules I and II, which falls under the authority 
of section 1002(a)(2)(B) of the Act (21 U.S.C. 952(a)(2)(B)) may, in 
the circumstances set forth in 21 U.S.C. 958(i), file comments or 
objections to the issuance of the proposed registration and may, at the 
same time, file a written request for a hearing on such application 
pursuant to 21 CFR 1301.43 and in such form as prescribed by 21 CFR 
1316.47.
    Any such written comments or objections should be addressed, in 
quintuplicate, to the Drug Enforcement Administration, Office of 
Diversion Control, Federal Register Representative (ODL), 8701 
Morrissette Drive, Springfield, Virginia 22152; and must be filed no 
later than June 21, 2013.
    This procedure is to be conducted simultaneously with, and 
independent of, the procedures described in 21 CFR 1301.34(b), (c), 
(d), (e), and (f). As noted

[[Page 30331]]

in a previous notice published in the Federal Register on September 23, 
1975, 40 FR 43745-46, all applicants for registration to import a basic 
class of any controlled substance in schedules I or II are, and will 
continue to be, required to demonstrate to the Deputy Assistant 
Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug Enforcement 
Administration, that the requirements for such registration pursuant to 
21 U.S.C. 958(a); 21 U.S.C. 823(a); and 21 CFR 1301.34(b), (c), (d), 
(e), and (f) are satisfied.

    Dated: May 14, 2013.
