Controlled Substances Act

This Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) proposes to classify the following two steroids as ``anabolic steroids'' under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA): prostanozol (17[beta]-hydroxy- 5[alpha]-androstano[3,2-c]pyrazole) and methasterone (2[alpha],17[alpha]-dimethyl-5[alpha]-androstan-17[beta]-ol-3-one). The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) believes that this action is necessary to prevent the abuse and trafficking of these steroids. If the regulations are amended, these steroids will be listed as Schedule III controlled substances subject to the regulatory control provisions of the CSA.

The U.S. Supreme Court will decide whether an alien's state-law conviction for possessing marijuana with intent to distribute constitutes an "aggravated felony" justifying deportation, even though the record of conviction does not show that the underlying conduct would constitute a felony under federal law.
