**FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT** paragraph. Background

Section 306 of the CSA (21 U.S.C. 826) requires that the Attorney General establish aggregate production quotas for each basic class of controlled substance listed in Schedules I and II. This responsibility has been delegated to the Administrator of the DEA by 28 CFR 0.100.

The proposed year 2012 aggregate production quotas represent those quantities of Schedule I and II controlled substances that may be produced in the United States in 2012 to provide adequate supplies of each substance 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.

In determining the proposed 2012 aggregate production quotas, the DEA 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 2012 by considering (1) total net disposal of the class by all manufacturers during the current and two preceding years; (2) trends in the national rate of net disposal of the class; (3) total actual (or estimated) inventories of the class and of all substances manufactured from the class, and trends in inventory accumulation; (4) projected demand for such class as indicated by procurement quotas requested pursuant to 21 CFR 1303.12; and (5) other factors affecting the medical, scientific, research, and industrial needs in the United States, lawful export requirements, and reserve stocks, as the Administrator finds relevant. Other factors DEA considered include product development requirements of both bulk and finished dosage form manufacturers, and other pertinent information.

The Administrator, therefore, proposes that the year 2012 aggregate production quotas for the following Schedule I and II controlled substances, expressed in grams of anhydrous acid or base, be established as follows:
