Plain language analysis:
The Controlled Substances Board did not receive an objection to treating U-47700 as a schedule I controlled substance under ch. 961, Stats. based upon the federal scheduling. The Controlled Substances Board took affirmative action on December 14, 2016 to similarly treat U-47700 under chapter 961 effective December 19, 2016 to allow for publication in the Administrative Register. The Affirmative Action Order will expire upon promulgation of a final rule. This rule creates s. 961.14 (2) (z), Stats. which adds U-47700 to schedule I. Comparison with rules in adjacent states:
Illinois: Illinois has not scheduled U-47700.
Iowa: Iowa is in the process of scheduling U-47700 as a schedule I controlled substance.
Michigan: Michigan has not scheduled U-47700.
Minnesota: Minnesota has not scheduled U-47700.
Summary of factual data and analytical methodologies:
The methodology was to schedule U-47700 to conform with the federal Controlled Substances Act. The Controlled Substances Board determines the scheduling of U-47700 as a Schedule I controlled substance is in the best interest of the citizens of Wisconsin.
