In accordance with the current 21 CFR
1307.21, a DEA registrant that desires to dispose of a controlled
substance must submit DEA Form 41 to the Special Agent in Charge
(SAC) in their area. DEA is proposing to delete 21 CFR 1307.21 and
replace it with a comprehensive part 1317 on disposal. Registrants
that destroy controlled substances and utilize DEA Form 41 will no
longer be required to submit DEA Form 41 to the SAC in their area.
Rather, in accordance with the CSA, such registrants will be
required to keep and make available the information in the
specified format, for at least two years, for inspection and
copying by officers or employees of the United States authorized by
the Attorney General. 21 U.S.C. 827(b).
