| 00-24553 | Control of Red Phosphorus, White Phosphorus and Hypophosphorous Acid (and Its Salts) as List I Chemicals | Proposed Rule | The Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act (hereinafter the "Controlled Substances Act" or "CSA") provides the Attorney General with the authority to specify by regulation, additional chemicals as "List I" chemicals if they are used in the manufacture of a controlled substance in violation of the CSA and are important to the manufacture of the controlled substance. Because of their use and importance in the illicit manufacture of methamphetamine, a Schedule II controlled substance, the DEA is proposing the addition of red phosphorus, white phosphorus (also known as yellow phosphorus) and hypophosphorous acid (and its salts) as List I chemicals. These phosphorus chemicals have been identified as being important chemicals for the illicit production of methamphetamine. As List I chemicals, handlers of these materials will be subject to CSA chemical regulatory controls including registration, recordkeeping, reporting, and import/export requirements. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has determined that these controls are necessary to prevent the diversion of these chemicals to clandestine drug laboratories. Given the small quantities and limited uses of these chemicals necessary for the production of methamphetamine, the DEA is proposing that no threshold be established for domestic and international transactions. As such, all transactions (regardless of size) shall be considered regulated transactions, subject to recordkeeping, reporting and/or import/export notification requirements. | 2000-09-25 | 2000 | 9 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/09/25/00-24553/control-of-red-phosphorus-white-phosphorus-and-hypophosphorous-acid-and-its-salts-as-list-i | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-09-25/pdf/00-24553.pdf | Justice Department; Drug Enforcement Administration | 268,116 | The Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act (hereinafter the "Controlled Substances Act" or "CSA") provides the Attorney General with the authority to specify by regulation, additional chemicals as "List I" chemicals if they are used in the... |
