Any person who is registered to
manufacture any basic class of controlled substances listed in
Schedule I or II and who desires to manufacture a quantity of such
class; or who desires to manufacture using the List I chemicals
ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, or phenylpropanolamine, must complete
the DEA Form 189 online, for a manufacturing quota for such
quantity of such class or List I chemical. 21 U.S.C. 826 and 21 CFR
1303.22 and 1315.22.
This information collection
request includes changes associated with the DEA’s Management of
Quotas for Controlled Substances and List I Chemicals rulemaking,
RIN 1117-AB49. The DEA is proposing to formally implement the use
of subcategories to facilitate the issuance of manufacturing quotas
and provide a more accurate calculation of the aggregate production
quotas for the United States. There are no changes in burden for
this information collection request. The proposed changes to this
collection would not change the amount of time needed for
respondents to complete responses. This information collection
request removes a duplicate collection previously included in the
system, resulting in a small reduction in burden unassociated with
the proposed changes to this collection.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
