SUMMARY: Chattem Chemicals, Inc. applied to be registered as a

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: By notice dated October 13, 2015, and 
published in the Federal Register on October 21, 2015, 80 FR 63835, 
Chattem Chemicals, Inc., 3801 St. Elmo Avenue, Chattanooga, Tennessee

submitted for this notice.
    The DEA has considered the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and 
determined that the registration of Chattem Chemicals, 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
