SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Controlled Substances Act (CSA) 
prohibits the cultivation and distribution of marihuana except by 
persons who are registered under the CSA to do so for lawful purposes. 
In accordance with the purposes specified in 21 CFR 1301.33(a), DEA is 
providing notice that the entity identified below has applied for 
registration as a bulk manufacturer of schedule I controlled 
substances. In response, registered bulk manufacturers of the affected 
basic class(es), and applicants therefor, may submit electronic 
comments on or objections of the requested registration, as provided in 
this notice. This notice does not constitute any evaluation or 
determination of the merits of the application submitted.
    The applicant plans to manufacture bulk active pharmaceutical 
ingredients (APIs) for product development and distribution to DEA 
registered researchers. If the application for registration is granted, 
the registrant would not be authorized to conduct other activity under 
this registration aside from those coincident activities specifically 
authorized by DEA regulations. DEA will evaluate the application for 
registration as a bulk manufacturer for compliance with all applicable 
laws, treaties, and regulations and to ensure adequate safeguards 
against diversion are in place.
    As this applicant has applied to become registered as a bulk 
manufacturer of marihuana, the application will be evaluated under the 
criteria of 21 U.S.C. 823(a). DEA will conduct this evaluation in the 
manner described in the rule published at 85 FR 82333 on December 18, 
2020, and reflected in DEA regulations at 21 CFR part 1318.
