SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DEA 

published a Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking (70 FR 43809) proposing 

the placement of embutramide into 

Schedule III of the Controlled 

Substances Act (CSA). The proposed 

scheduling action is based on a 

scientific and medical evaluation and 

recommendation by the Department of 

Health and Human Services and an 

evaluation of this and other information 

by DEA. On August 22, 2005, DEA 

received a request for an extension of 

the period in which to comment and 

request a hearing. The requestor 

indicated that the additional time is 

necessary to review the scientific 

articles and other information cited by 

DEA in support of its scheduling 

proposal. Upon consideration of this 

request, a thirty day extension of the 

time to comment and request a hearing 

is granted. This allows sufficient time 

for interested persons to evaluate and 

consider all relevant information and 

respond accordingly. Therefore, the 

comment period and time to request a 

hearing is extended to September 28, 

2005. Comments must be received by 

the DEA on or before this date. 

Dated: August 24, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Request for Comments 

We encourage you to participate in 

this rulemaking by submitting 

comments and related material. If you 

do so, please include your name and 

address, identify the docket number for 

this rulemaking (CGD05–05–105), 

indicate the specific section of this 

document to which each comment 

applies, and give the reason for each 

comment. Please submit all comments 

and related material in an unbound 

format, no larger than 81⁄2 by 11 inches,

to know they reached us, please enclose 

a stamped, self-addressed postcard or 

envelope. We will consider all 

comments and material received during 

the comment period. We may change 

this proposed rule in view of them. 

In order to provide notice and an 

opportunity to comment before issuing 

an effective rule, we are providing a 

shorter than normal comment period. A 

20-day comment period is sufficient to 

allow those who might be affected by 

this rulemaking to submit their 

comments because the regulations have 

a narrow, local application, and there 

will be local notifications in addition to 

the Federal Register publication such as 

press releases, marine information 

broadcasts, and the Local Notice to 

Mariners. 

Public Meeting 

We do not now plan to hold a public 

meeting. But you may submit a request 

for a meeting by writing to the address 

listed under ADDRESSES explaining why 

one would be beneficial. If we 

determine that one would aid this 

rulemaking, we will hold one at a time 

and place announced by a later notice 

in the Federal Register. 

Background and Purpose 

On October 1, 2005, the Columbia 

Triathlon Association will sponsor the 

‘‘Chesapeakeman Ultra Triathlon’’. The 

swimming segment of the event will 

consist of approximately 300 swimmers 

competing across a 2.4-mile course 

along the Choptank River between the 

Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Resort 

Beach and Great Marsh Park, 

Cambridge, Maryland. The competition 

will begin at the Hyatt Regency Beach. 

The participants will swim across to the 

finish line located at Great Marsh Park, 

swimming approximately 100 yards off 

shore, parallel with the shoreline. 

Approximately 20 support vessels will 

accompany the swimmers. Due to the 

need for vessel control during the 

swimming event, the Coast Guard will 

temporarily restrict vessel traffic in the 

event area to provide for the safety of
