Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The Combat Methamphetmaine Epidemic Act of 2005 (Title VII of Pub. L. 109-177) amended the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 826) to require the establishment of production quotas for the List I chemicals ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, and phenylpropanolamine. An additional 240 firms will need to apply for individual procurement quotas to comply with the Controlled Substances Act as amended. The 240 hour annual burden increase is a result of this statutory change.
