The Department of Justice's Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) announced a request for public comments on a new information collection plan as per the Paperwork Reduction Act. This collection aims to allow non-registrants to access the CSA Database System to verify DEA registrant status, essential for commerce activities involving controlled substances. The plan targets businesses, not-for-profit institutions, and government entities, with an estimated annual public burden of 250 hours. Public feedback is sought to ensure the necessity, accuracy, clarity, and reduced burden of the information gathering process.
Simple Explanation
The DEA wants to know what people think about their new plan to let businesses and groups check if someone is allowed to handle certain drugs. They want to make sure this plan is useful, easy to understand, and not too hard to do.
