Section 61-4.300.302 - Applications for Research in Controlled Schedule I Substances

(a) In the case of an application for registration to conduct research with controlled substances, the Bureau Director shall refer such application to the Director who shall determine the qualifications and competency of the applicant as well as the merits of the research protocol. The Bureau Director, in determining the merits of a research protocol, shall consider procedures to effectively safeguard against diversion of such controlled substances from legitimate medical or scientific use. If the Bureau Director finds the applicant qualified and competent and the research protocol meritorious and adequately safeguarded, he shall register the applicant unless he finds registration should be denied on a ground specified in the Act.

(b) If the Bureau Director is unable to find the applicant qualified or finds that grounds exist for the denial of the application, the Bureau Director shall issue an order to show cause pursuant to § 309 and, if requested by the applicant, hold a hearing on the application pursuant to § 310.
