(a) Establishment of a new Schedule 1 production facility. (1) If your facility was not declared under § 712.3 in a previous calendar year, and you intend to begin production of Schedule 1 chemicals at your facility in quantities greater than 100 grams aggregate per year for research, medical, or pharmaceutical purposes, you must provide an initial declaration (a current detailed technical description of your facility) to BXA at least 200 calendar days in advance of commencing such production. Such facilities are considered “new Schedule 1 production facilities” and are subject to an initial inspection within 200 calendar days of submitting an initial declaration.

(2) New Schedule 1 production facilities that submit an initial declaration pursuant to paragraph (a)(1) of this section are considered approved Schedule 1 production facilities for purposes of the CWC, unless otherwise notified by BXA within 30 days of receipt by BXA of that initial declaration.

(b) Types of declaration forms required. If your new Schedule 1 production facility will produce in excess of 100 grams aggregate of Schedule 1 chemicals, you must complete the Certification Form, Form 1-1 and Form A. You must also provide a detailed technical description of the new facility or its relevant parts, including a detailed diagram of the declared areas in the facility, and an inventory of equipment in the declared areas.

(c) Two hundred days after a new Schedule 1 production facility submits its initial declaration, it is subject to the annual declaration requirements of § 712.3(a)(2) and (a)(3).
