Paper comments: Paper comments that duplicate the electronic submission are not necessary and are discouraged.

Time line:
The comment period is going on right now and ends December 1st 2016. At the end of the comment period the DEA will review the comments and can choose to act 1 of 3 ways in regard to Kratom.
The 1st option is that the DEA could leave Kratom alone, which that will mean Kratom will stay legal.
The 2nd option is that the DEA can choose to recommend to Congress to schedule Kratom. Congress will take over and if they decided to act upon the recommendation it would have to go thru both houses and then the president. This process could take years.
The 3rd option is that the DEA will issue another notice of intent to schedule Kratom under the Emergency Ban Statue. This would put us in same place we were at the end of August. Let’s not let this happen again. If the DEA issues another notice of intent to schedule Kratom then they will again give a 30 day notice and start the process all over again.
