    Written comments were filed by three registered manufacturers. One 
stated that they would not oppose or request a hearing if it was 
determined that Sigma Chemical Company's applications for registration 
was only for the importation of small quantities of Alfentanil, 
Sufentanil, Oxymorphone, Morphine, Cocaine, Codeine, Fentanyl, 
Methadone, Dextropropoxyphene, bulk (non-dosage forms), and Meperidine. 
DEA has found that this is the case. Another manufacturer's comment 
requested that the firm's application for registration to import 
Meperidine be denied. The remaining manufacturer commented that they 
have the ability to supply small quantities of amphetamine and 
methamphetamine and do not believe there is a need for another 
supplier. The comments were considered, however, DEA has determined 
that the application should be approved. Therefore, pursuant to section 
1008(a) of the Controlled Substances Import and Export Act and in 
accordance with Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, Sec. 1311.42, 
the above firm is granted registration as an importer of the basic 
classes of controlled substances listed above.
