    AN ACT concerning criminal law.
 
    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
represented in the General Assembly:
 
    Section 5. The Illinois Controlled Substances Act is
amended by changing Sections 201 and 206 and by adding Section
218 as follows:
 
    (720 ILCS 570/201)  (from Ch. 56 1/2, par. 1201)
    Sec. 201. (a) The Department shall carry out the provisions
of this Article. The Department or its successor agency may add
substances to or delete or reschedule all controlled substances
in the Schedules of Sections 204, 206, 208, 210 and 212 of this
Act. In making a determination regarding the addition,
deletion, or rescheduling of a substance, the Department shall
consider the following:
        (1) the actual or relative potential for abuse;
        (2) the scientific evidence of its pharmacological
    effect, if known;
        (3) the state of current scientific knowledge
    regarding the substance;
        (4) the history and current pattern of abuse;
        (5) the scope, duration, and significance of abuse;
        (6) the risk to the public health;
        (7) the potential of the substance to produce
    psychological or physiological dependence;
        (8) whether the substance is an immediate precursor of
    a substance already controlled under this Article;
        (9) the immediate harmful effect in terms of
    potentially fatal dosage; and
        (10) the long-range effects in terms of permanent
    health impairment.
    (b) (Blank).
    (c) (Blank).
    (d) If any substance is scheduled, rescheduled, or deleted
as a controlled substance under Federal law and notice thereof
is given to the Department, the Department shall similarly
control the substance under this Act after the expiration of 30
days from publication in the Federal Register of a final order
scheduling a substance as a controlled substance or
rescheduling or deleting a substance, unless within that 30 day
period the Department objects, or a party adversely affected
files with the Department substantial written objections
objecting to inclusion, rescheduling, or deletion. In that
case, the Department shall publish the reasons for objection or
the substantial written objections and afford all interested
parties an opportunity to be heard. At the conclusion of the
hearing, the Department shall publish its decision, by means of
a rule, which shall be final unless altered by statute. Upon
publication of objections by the Department, similar control
under this Act whether by inclusion, rescheduling or deletion
is stayed until the Department publishes its ruling.
    (e) The Department shall by rule exclude any non-narcotic
substances from a schedule if such substance may, under the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, be lawfully sold over the
counter without a prescription.
    (f) The sale, delivery, distribution, and possession of a
drug product containing dextromethorphan shall be in
accordance with Section 218 of this Act. Dextromethorphan shall
not be deemed to be included in any schedule by reason of
enactment of this title unless controlled after the date of
such enactment pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this
section.
    (g) Authority to control under this section does not extend
to distilled spirits, wine, malt beverages, or tobacco as those
terms are defined or used in the Liquor Control Act and the
Tobacco Products Tax Act.
    (h) Persons registered with the Drug Enforcement
Administration to manufacture or distribute controlled
substances shall maintain adequate security and provide
effective controls and procedures to guard against theft and
diversion, but shall not otherwise be required to meet the
physical security control requirements (such as cage or vault)
for Schedule V controlled substances containing
pseudoephedrine or Schedule II controlled substances
containing dextromethorphan.
