**FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT** paragraph. Background

Section 306 of the CSA (21 U.S.C. 826) requires the Attorney General to establish aggregate production quotas for each basic class of controlled substance listed in schedules I and II and for ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine. This responsibility has been delegated to the Administrator of the DEA through 28 CFR 0.100. The Administrator, in turn, has redelegated this function to the Deputy Administrator, pursuant to 28 CFR 0.104. DEA published the 2013 established aggregate production quotas for controlled substances in schedules I and II and assessment of annual needs for the list I chemicals ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine in the Federal Register (77 FR 59980) on October 1, 2012. That notice stipulated that, as provided for in 21 CFR 1303.13 and 21 CFR 1315.13, all aggregate production quotas and assessments of annual need are subject to adjustment. Analysis for Proposed Aggregate Production Quotas for Temporarily Scheduled Substances

On May 16, 2013, the Deputy Administrator issued a final order to temporarily schedule three synthetic cannabinoids in schedule I of the CSA: (1-Pentyl-1H-indol-3-yl)(2,2,3,3- tetramethylcyclopropyl)methanone


### 37238 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 119 / Thursday, June 20, 2013 / Notices

(UR–144); [1-(5-fluoro-pentyl)-1H-indol3-yl](2,2,3,3- tetramethylcyclopropyl)methanone(XLR11); and N-(1-adamantyl)-1-pentyl1H-indazole-3-carboxamide (AKB48). See 78 FR 28735. DEA has received applications for registration and quota for these temporarily scheduled substances. In examining the information provided by the applicants, along with other information, DEA finds that there is a current need for these substances. Aggregate production quotas represent those quantities of schedule I and II controlled substances to be manufactured in the United States in 2013 to provide for the estimated medical, scientific, research, and industrial needs of the United States, lawful export requirements, and the establishment and maintenance of reserve stocks. As such, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 826(a), the Deputy Administrator must determine the total quantity and establish production quotas for each of the three temporarily scheduled substances.

In making this determination, the Deputy Administrator has taken into account the criteria that DEA is required to consider in accordance with 21 U.S.C. 826(a) and 21 CFR 1303.11. DEA proposes the aggregate production quotas for these three temporarily scheduled substances by considering: (1) Total estimated net disposal of each substance by all manufacturers; (2) estimated trends in the national rate of net disposal; (3) total estimated inventories of the basic class and of all substances manufactured from the class; (4) projected demand for each class as indicated by procurement quotas requested pursuant to 21 CFR 1303.12; and (5) other factors affecting medical, scientific, research, and industrial needs of the United States and lawful export requirements, as the Deputy Administrator finds relevant. These quotas do not include imports of controlled substances for use in industrial processes. Analysis for Proposed Revised 2013 Aggregate Production Quotas and Assessment of Annual Needs

DEA proposes to adjust the established 2013 aggregate production quotas for some schedule I and II controlled substances to be manufactured in the United States in 2013 to provide for the estimated medical, scientific, research, and industrial needs of the United States, lawful export requirements, and the establishment and maintenance of reserve stocks. These quotas do not include imports of controlled substances for use in industrial processes. DEA is not proposing to adjust the assessment of annual needs for the list I chemicals ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine at this time.

In proposing the adjustment, DEA has taken into account the criteria that DEA is required to consider in accordance with 21 CFR 1303.13 and 21 CFR 1315.13. DEA determines whether to propose an adjustment of the aggregate production quotas for basic classes of schedule I and II controlled substances and ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine by considering: (1) Changes in demand for the basic class, changes in the national rate of net disposal for the class, and changes in the rate of net disposal by the registrants holding individual manufacturing quotas for the class; (2) whether any increased demand or changes in the national or individual rates of net disposal are temporary, short term, or long term; (3) whether any increased demand can be met through existing inventories, increased individual manufacturing quotas, or increased importation, without increasing the aggregate production quota; (4) whether any decreased demand will result in excessive inventory accumulation by all persons registered to handle the class; and (5) other factors affecting the medical, scientific, research, and industrial needs of the United States and lawful export requirements, as the Deputy Administrator finds relevant.

DEA also considered updatedinformation obtained from 2012 yearend inventories, 2012 disposition data submitted by quota applicants, estimates of the medical needs of the United States, product development, and other information made available to DEA after the initial aggregate production quotas and assessment of annual needs had been established. Other factors DEA considered in calculating the aggregate production quotas, but not the assessment of annual needs, include product development requirements of both bulk and finished dosage form manufacturers, and other pertinent information. In determining the proposed revised 2013 assessment of annual needs, DEA used the calculation methodology previously described in the 2010 and 2011 assessment of annual needs (74 FR 60294 and 75 FR 79407, respectively).

As described in the previously published notice establishing the 2013 aggregate production quotas and assessment of annual needs, DEA has specifically considered that inventory allowances granted to individual manufacturers may not always result in the availability of sufficient quantities to maintain an adequate reserve stock pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 826(a), as intended. See 21 CFR 1303.24. This would be concerning if a natural disaster or other unforeseen event resulted in substantial disruption to the amount of controlled substances available to provide for legitimate public need. As such, DEA has included in all proposed revised schedule II aggregate production quotas, and certain schedule I aggregate production quotas, an additional 25% of the estimated medical, scientific, and research needs as part of the amount necessary to ensure the establishment and maintenance of reserve stocks. The resulting revised established aggregate production quota will reflect these included amounts. This action will not affect the ability of manufacturers to maintain inventory allowances as specified by regulation. DEA expects that maintaining this reserve in certain established aggregate production quotas will mitigate adverse public effects if an unforeseen event resulted in substantial disruption to the amount of controlled substances available to provide for legitimate public need, as determined by DEA. DEA does not anticipate utilizing the reserve in the absence of these circumstances.

The Deputy Administrator, therefore, proposes that the year 2013 aggregate production quotas for the three temporarily scheduled substances be established, and to adjust the 2013 aggregate production quotas for some schedule I and II controlled substances and ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine, expressed in grams of anhydrous acid or base, as follows:
