The firm plans to import small quantities of the listed controlled
substances to manufacture laboratory reference standards and
neurochemicals.
No comments or objections have been received. DEA has considered
the factors in title 21, United States Code, Section 823(a) and
determined that the registration of Research Biochemicals to import the
listed controlled substances is consistent with the public interest and
with United States obligations under international treaties,
conventions, or protocols in effect on May 1, 1971, at this time. DEA
has investigated Research Biochemicals on a regular basis to ensure
that the company's continued registration is consistent with the public
interest. These investigations have included inspection and testing of
the company's physical security systems, audits of the company's
records, verification of the company's compliance with state and local
laws, and a review of the company's background and history. Therefore,
pursuant to Section 1008(a) of the Controlled Substances Import and
Export Act and in accordance with Title 21, Code of Federal
Regulations, Section 1301.34, the above firm is granted registration as
an importer of the basic classes of controlled substances listed above.
Dated: August 5, 1999.

Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug
Enforcement Administration.
