{"abstract":"The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) proposes to revise existing regulations relating to the management of quotas for schedule I and II controlled substances and the list I chemicals, ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine, to be utilized by DEA- registered manufacturers. This rule is being proposed to: restructure DEA's manufacturing and procurement quota regulations for more clarity and consistency; clarify which use-specific subcategories for quotas should be used for controlled substances that will be sold domestically and controlled substances that will be exported; and revise the applications for individual manufacturing and procurement quota. The changes are necessary to increase visibility into the controlled substance supply chain by providing DEA with more detailed information allowing the agency to react more precisely in preventing drug shortages; and to ensure that enough of the schedule I and II controlled substances and three list I chemicals can be manufactured to meet estimated scientific, medical, lawful export, and inventory needs. This rule also contains revisions to use gender neutral language and other non-substantive revisions.","action":"Notice of proposed rulemaking.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE","name":"Justice Department","id":268,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/justice-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/268","parent_id":null,"slug":"justice-department"},{"raw_name":"Drug Enforcement Administration","name":"Drug Enforcement Administration","id":116,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/drug-enforcement-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/116","parent_id":268,"slug":"drug-enforcement-administration"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2026/05/20/2026-10128.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":"1303","title":21},{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":"1315","title":21}],"citation":"91 FR 29394","comment_url":"http://www.regulations.gov/commenton/DEA-2026-0793-0001","comments_close_on":"2026-07-20","correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"Comments must be received by July 20, 2026.
