SUMMARY: Johnson Matthey Pharmaceutical Materials, Inc. applied to be

of those controlled substances.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By notice dated April 14, 2015, and 
published in the Federal Register on April 22, 2015, 80 FR 22559, 
Johnson Matthey Pharmaceutical Materials, Inc., 25 Patton Road, Devens, 
Massachusetts 01434 applied to be registered as a manufacturer of 
certain basic classes of controlled substances. No comments or 
objections were submitted for this notice.
    The DEA has considered the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and 
determined that the registration of Johnson Matthey Pharmaceutical 
Materials, Inc. to manufacture 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. 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:
