The Deputy Administrator further

orders that aggregate production quotas

for all other Schedules I and II

controlled substances included in

Sections 1308.11 and 1308.12 of Title 21

of the Code of Federal Regulations

remain at zero.

The Office of Management and Budget

has determined that notices of aggregate

production quotas are not subject to

centralized review under Executive

Order 12866. This action has been

analyzed in accordance with the

principles and criteria contained in

Executive Order 13132, and it has been

determined that this matter does not

have sufficient federalism implications

to warrant the preparation of a

Federalism Assessment.

The Deputy Administrator hereby

certifies that this action will have no

significant impact upon small entities

whose interests must be considered

under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5

U.S.C. 601 et seq. The establishment of

aggregate production quotas for

Schedules I and II controlled substances

is mandated by law and by international

treaty obligations. Aggregate production

quotas apply to approximately 200 DEA

registered bulk and dosage form

manufacturers of Schedules I and II

controlled substances. The quotas are

necessary to provide for the estimated

medical, scientific, research and

industrial needs of the United States, for

export requirements and the

establishment and maintenance of

reserve stocks. While aggregate

production quotas are of primary

importance to large manufacturers, their

impact upon small entities is neither

negative nor beneficial. Accordingly, the

Deputy Administrator has determined

that this action does not require a

regulatory flexibility analysis.

Dated: September 15, 2000.

Julio F. Mercado,

Deputy Administrator.
