DOJ/DEA RIN: 1117-AA66 Publication ID: Spring 2009 
Title: Chemical Mixtures Containing Listed Forms of Phosphorus 
Abstract: In a previous rulemaking (RIN 1117-AA57), DEA made red phosphorus, white phosphorus, and hypophosphorous acid (and its salts) List I chemicals. By this rulemaking (1117-AA66), DEA is making regulations governing chemical mixtures containing the List I chemicals red phosphorus, white phosphorus, and hypophosphorous acid (and its salts). Currently, all chemical mixtures containing red phosphorus, white phosphorus, and hypophosphorous acid (and its salts) are exempt from regulation. These mixtures will remain exempt until publication of rulemakings regarding chemical mixtures (see RIN 1117-AA31). These three List I chemicals are used industrially and have multiple commercial purposes. They are also used in the illicit production of methamphetamine and amphetamine. Based on information available, DEA will determine whether there are chemical mixtures containing red phosphorus, white phosphorus, and hypophosphorous acid (and its salts), which should be exempt from the regulations governing listed chemicals.
