[Docket No. DEA-392]


Importer of Controlled Substances Registration: Penick 
Corporation

ACTION: Notice of registration.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Penick Corporation applied to be registered as an importer of 
certain basic classes of narcotic controlled substances. The DEA grants 
Penick Corporation registration as an importer of those controlled 
substances.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By notice dated May 28, 2014, and published 
in the Federal Register on June 4, 2014, 79 FR 32316, Penick 
Corporation, 33 Industrial Park Road, Pennsville, New Jersey 08070, 
applied to be registered as an importer of certain basic classes of 
controlled substances. Comments and requests for hearings on 
applications to import narcotic raw material are not appropriate. 72 FR 
3417 (January 25, 2007).
    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has considered the 
factors in 21 U.S.C. 823, 952(a) and 958(a) and determined that the 
registration of Penick Corporation 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. The DEA investigated the company's 
maintenance of effective controls against diversion by inspecting and 
testing the company's physical security systems, verifying the 
company's compliance with state and local laws, and reviewing 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 narcotic controlled 
substances listed:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Controlled substance                       Schedule
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Opium, raw (9600)..........................  II
Poppy Straw Concentrate (9670).............  II
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The company plans to import the listed controlled substances to 
manufacture bulk controlled substance intermediates for sale to its 
customers.

    Dated: August 11, 2014.

Deputy Assistant Administrator.
