Importer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Registration

    By Notice dated March 8, 2011, and published in the Federal 
Register on March 17, 2011, 76 FR 14688, Aptuit, 10245 Hickman Mills 
Drive, Kansas City, Missouri 64137, made application by renewal to the 
Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to be registered as an importer 
of the following basic classes of controlled substances:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                    Drug                               Schedule
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marihuana (7360)...........................  I
Poppy Straw Concentrate (9670).............  II
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The company plans to import a finished pharmaceutical product 
containing cannabis extracts in dosage form for packaging for a 
clinical trial study. In addition, the company also plans to import an 
ointment for the treatment of wounds which contain trace amounts of the 
controlled substances normally found in poppy straw concentrate for 
packaging and labeling for clinical trials.
    No comments or objections have been received. DEA has considered 
the factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and 952(a), and determined that the 
registration of Aptuit to import the basic classes of 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. DEA has investigated Aptuit to 
ensure that the company's registration is consistent with the public 
interest. The investigation has included inspection and testing of the 
company's physical security systems, verification of the company's 
compliance with state and local laws, and a review of the company's 
background and history. Therefore, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 952(a) and 
958(a), and in accordance with 21 CFR 1301.34, the above named company 
is granted registration as an importer of the basic classes of 
controlled substances listed.

    Dated: May 12, 2011.
Joseph T. Rannazzisi,
Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug 
Enforcement Administration.
