Waiver of Advance Notification Requirement to Import Acetone, 2-Butanone (MEK), and Toluene

Краткое содержание

DEA is proposing the amendment of its regulations to waive the advance notification requirement to import the solvents acetone, 2- Butanone (MEK), and toluene, which DEA regulates as List I chemicals. DEA has determined that the advance notification requirement is not necessary for these chemicals for chemical diversion control. DEA currently receives, on average, 2000 advance notifications per year to import these solvents. This change will now require only the submission of 400 summary reports annually. This change to the regulations will ease regulatory burdens for the regulated industry and administrative burdens for DEA.
