[Pharmwaste] RE: Anyone with word on the DEA Final Rule on controlled substances???

[Shield, Margaret]

This webpage on OMB's site says that they received the final rule from DOH on 2/25/14.
http://www.reginfo.gov/public/jsp/EO/eoDashboard.jsp?agency_cd=1100&agency_nm=DOJ&stage_cd=4&from_page=index.jsp&sub_index=0

I believe OMB has a 90 day window to act on a rule, and is allowed to request a 30 day extension.

I continue to hope/expect that the Feds will be true to their time schedule commitment in the Federal Register notice and release the final rule during March 2014.  They better hop to it!!
