Alphaprodine; 4 "b. Anileridine; 5 "c. Bezitramide; 6 "d. Dihydrocodeine; 7 "e. Diphenoxylate; 8 "f. Fentanyl; 9 "g. Isomethadone; 10 "h. Levomethorphan; 11 "i. Levorphanol; 12 "j. Metazocine; 13 "k.

Racemorphan." 2 "(a) The Legislature finds the following: 3 (1) New synthetic substances are being created which 4 are not controlled under the provisions of existing state law 5 but which have a potential for abuse similar to or greater 6 than that for substances controlled under existing state law. 7 These new synthetic substances are called "synthetic 8 controlled substances or synthetic controlled substance 9 analogues" and can be designed to produce a desired 10 pharmacological effect and to evade the controlling statutory 11 provisions. Synthetic controlled substances or synthetic 12 controlled substance analogues are being manufactured, 13 distributed, possessed, and used as substitutes for controlled 14 substances. 15 (2) The hazards attributable to the traffic in and 16 use of a synthetic controlled substance or synthetic 17 controlled substance analogues are increased because their 18 unregulated manufacture produces variations in purity and 19 concentration. 20 (3) Many new synthetic substances are untested, and 21 it cannot be immediately determined whether they have useful 22 medical or chemical purposes. 23 (4) The uncontrolled importation, manufacture, 24 distribution, possession, or use of controlled substance Page 4 HB2 1 analogues has a substantial and detrimental impact on the 2 health and safety of the people of this state. 3 (5) Synthetic controlled substances or synthetic 4 controlled substance analogues can be created more rapidly 5 than they can be identified and controlled by action of the 6 Legislature. There is a need for a speedy determination of 7 their proper classification under existing law. It is 8 therefore necessary to identify and classify new substances 9 that have a potential for abuse, so that they can be 10 controlled in the same manner as other substances controlled 11 under existing state law. 12 (b) The controlled substances listed in this section 13 are included in Schedule I: 14 (1) Any of the following opiates, including their 15 isomers, esters, ethers, salts, and salts of isomers, esters 16 and ethers, unless specifically excepted, whenever the 17 existence of these isomers, esters, ethers and salts is 18 possible within the specific chemical designation: 19 a.
