SUMMARY: Cody Laboratories, Inc. applied to be registered as an

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By notice dated August 27, 2014, and 
published in the Federal Register on September 4, 2014, 79 FR 52762, 
Cody Laboratories, Inc., 601 Yellowstone Avenue, Cody, Wyoming 82414-

of controlled substances. No comments or objections were submitted to 
this notice. Comments and requests for hearings on applications to 
import narcotic raw material are not appropriate. 72 FR 3417 (January

    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 Cody Laboratories, 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. 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 controlled 
substances listed:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                  Controlled substance                       Schedule

Poppy Straw Concentrate (9670)..........................              II
Tapentadol (9780).......................................              II
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The company plans to import narcotic raw materials for 
manufacturing and further distribution to its customers. The company is 
registered with the DEA as a manufacturer of several controlled 
substances that are manufactured from poppy straw concentrate.
    The company plans to import an intermediate form of tapentadol 
(9780) to bulk manufacture tapentadol for distribution to its 
customers.
