pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine.

DATES: Interested persons may file written comments on this notice in 
accordance with 21 CFR 1303.11(c) and 1315.11(d). Electronic comments

Legal Authority

    Section 306 of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) (21 U.S.C. 826) 
requires the Attorney General to establish aggregate production quotas 
for each basic class of controlled substance listed in schedules I and 
II and for the list I chemicals ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and 
phenylpropanolamine. The Attorney General has delegated this function 
to the Administrator of the DEA pursuant to 28 CFR 0.100.

Analysis for Proposed 2018 Aggregate Production Quotas and Assessment 
of Annual Needs

    The proposed year 2018 aggregate production quotas and assessment 
of annual needs represent those quantities of schedule I and II 
controlled substances, and the list I chemicals ephedrine, 
pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine, to be manufactured in the 
United States in 2018 to provide for the estimated medical, scientific, 
research, and industrial needs of the United States, lawful export 
requirements, and the establishment and maintenance of reserve stocks. 
These quotas include imports of ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and 
phenylpropanolamine, but do not include imports of controlled 
substances for use in industrial processes.
    In determining the proposed 2018 aggregate production quotas and 
assessment of annual needs, the Acting Administrator has taken into 
account the criteria pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 826(a) and in accordance 
with 21 CFR 1303.11 (aggregate production quotas for controlled 
substances) and 21 CFR 1315.11 (assessment of annual needs for 
ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and

[[Page 36831]]

phenylpropanolamine). The DEA proposes the aggregate production quotas 
and assessment of annual needs for 2018 by considering: (1) Total net 
disposal of each class or chemical by all manufacturers and chemical 
importers during the current and two preceding years; (2) trends in the 
national rate of net disposal of the class or chemical; (3) total 
actual (or estimated) inventories of the class or chemical and of all 
substances manufactured from the class or chemical, and trends in 
inventory accumulation; (4) projected demand for each class or chemical 
as indicated by procurement and import quotas requested in accordance 
with 21 CFR 1303.12, 1315.32, and 1315.34; and (5) other factors 
affecting medical, scientific, research, and industrial needs of the 
United States and lawful export requirements, as the Acting 
Administrator finds relevant. These quotas do not include imports of 
controlled substances for use in industrial processes.
    Other factors the Acting Administrator considered in calculating 
the aggregate production quotas, but not the assessment of annual 
needs, include product development requirements of both bulk and 
finished dosage form manufacturers, and other pertinent information. In 
determining the proposed 2018 assessment of annual needs, the DEA used 
the calculation methodology previously described in the 2010 and 2011 
assessment of annual needs (74 FR 60294, Nov. 20, 2009, and 75 FR 
79407, Dec. 20, 2010, respectively).
    The Acting Administrator, therefore, proposes to establish the 2018 
aggregate production quotas for certain schedule I and II controlled 
substances and assessment of annual needs for the list I chemicals 
ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine, expressed in grams 
of anhydrous acid or base, as follows:

    The Acting Administrator further proposes that aggregate production 
quotas for all other schedule I and II controlled substances included 
in 21 CFR 1308.11 and 1308.12 remain at zero. In accordance with 21 CFR 
1303.13 and 21 CFR 1315.13, upon consideration of the relevant factors, 
the Acting Administrator may adjust the 2018 aggregate production 
quotas and assessment of annual needs as needed.

Conclusion

    After consideration of any comments or objections, or after a 
hearing, if one is held, the Acting Administrator will issue and 
publish in the Federal Register a final order establishing the 2018 
aggregate production quota for controlled substances in schedules I and 
II and establishing an assessment of annual needs for the list I 
chemicals ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine, 21 CFR 
1303.11(c) and 1315.11(f).

    Dated: July 27, 2017.

Acting Administrator.
