Drug Enforcement Administration


Importer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Registration; United 
States Pharmacopeial Convention

    By Notice dated September 27, 2013, and published in the Federal 
Register on October 25, 2013, 78 FR 64014, United States Pharmacopeial 
Convention, 12601 Twinbrook Parkway, Rockville, Maryland 20852, made 
application to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to be 
registered as an importer of Noroxymorphone (9668), a basic class of 
controlled substance listed in schedule II.
    The company plans to import reference standards for sale to 
researchers and analytical labs.
    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 United States Pharmacopeial Convention 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. DEA has 
investigated United States Pharmacopeial Convention 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 class of controlled substance 
listed.

    Dated: January 15, 2014.
Joseph T. Rannazzisi,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug 
Enforcement Administration.
