        <RULE_TITLE>Self-Certification and Employee Training of Mail-Order Distributors of Scheduled Listed Chemical Products</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[On October 12, 2010, the President signed the Combat Methamphetamine Enhancement Act of 2010 (MEA).  It establishes new requirements for mail-order distributors of scheduled listed chemical products.  The MEA requires mail-order distributors to self-certify to DEA in order to sell scheduled listed chemical products at retail.  Sales at retail are those sales intended for personal use; mail-order distributors that sell scheduled listed chemical products not intended for personal use, e.g., sale to a university, are not affected by the new law.  Under the MEA, this self-certification must include a statement that the mail-order distributor understands each of the requirements that apply under part 1314 and agrees to comply with these requirements.  Additionally, the MEA requires mail-order distributors to train their employees prior to self-certification.  DEA would promulgate this final rule to incorporate the statutory provisions and make its regulations consistent with the new requirements and other existing regulations related to self-certification.]]></ABSTRACT>
