Regulatory Flexibility Act The Administrator, in accordance with the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5
U.S.C. 601602, has reviewed this proposed rule and by approving it certifies that it will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
DEA proposes placing the substance methiopropamine chemical name: Nmethyl-1-thiophen-2-ylpropan-2amine, including its salts, isomers, and salts of isomers, in schedule I of the CSA. This action is being taken to enable the United States to meet its obligations under the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Substances. If finalized, this action would impose the regulatory controls and administrative, civil, and criminal sanctions applicable to schedule I controlled substances on persons who handle manufacture, distribute, reverse distribute, import, export, engage in research, conduct instructional activities or chemical analysis with, or possess, or propose to handle, methiopropamine.
According to HHS, methiopropamine has a high potential for abuse, has no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States, and lacks accepted safety for use under medical supervision. DEAs research confirms that there is no legitimate commercial market for methiopropamine in the United States. Therefore, DEA estimates that no United States entity currently handles methiopropamine and does not expect any United States entity to handle methiopropamine in the foreseeable future. DEA concludes that no legitimate United States entity would be affected by this rule if finalized. As such, the proposed rule will not have a significant effect on a substantial number of small entities.
