A registered manufacturer filed a request for a hearing with

respect to amphetamine and methamphetamine. The requesting party

subsequently submitted a letter dated August 29, 1995, withdrawing

their request for a hearing. On September 1, 1995, an order terminating

the proceedings was issued by Administrative Law Judge Mary Ellen

Bittner. Another registered manufacturer filed a comment requesting

that the firm's application to manufacture meperidine be denied because

there is no need for Radian to register as a third domestic

manufacturer of meperidine and that Radian must show it can maintain

adequate safeguards against the theft and diversion of meperidine. In

regards to this comment, the firm, which has been approved as a

manufacturer of meperidine for previous applications, has been subject

to periodic in-depth investigations by DEA to evaluate the firm's

fitness as a DEA registrant. Additionally, in response to this recent

application, the firm was inspected by DEA and found to have adequate

safeguards to prevent the theft or diversion of meperidine. Therefore,

pursuant to Section 303 of the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and

Control Act of 1970 and Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, Section

1301.54(e), the Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion

Control, hereby orders that the application submitted by the above firm

for registration as a bulk manufacturer of the basic classes of

controlled substances listed above is granted.

Dated: November 29, 1995.

Gene R. Haislip,

Deputy Assistant Administrator, Office of Diversion Control, Drug

Enforcement Administration.
