             1151          (ii) The division shall issue each license under this chapter in accordance with a

             1154          (b) Persons licensed to manufacture, produce, distribute, prescribe, dispense,

             1157      prescribe, dispense, administer, conduct research with, or perform laboratory analysis upon

             1161          (i) an agent or employee, except a sales representative, of any registered manufacturer,
             1162      distributor, or dispenser of any controlled substance, if the agent or employee is acting in the
             1163      usual course of the person's business or employment; however, nothing in this subsection shall
             1164      be interpreted to permit an agent, employee, sales representative, or detail man to maintain an
             1165      inventory of controlled substances separate from the location of the person's employer's
             1166      registered and licensed place of business;

             1175          (e) A separate license is required at each principal place of business or professional
             1176      practice where the applicant manufactures, produces, distributes, dispenses, conducts research
             1177      with, or performs laboratory analysis upon controlled substances.
             1178          (f) The division may enact rules providing for the inspection of a licensee or applicant's

             1181      manufacture, produce, distribute, conduct research with, or perform laboratory analysis upon
             1182      controlled substances included in Schedules I through V, unless it determines that issuance of a
             1183      license is inconsistent with the public interest. The division shall not issue a license to any
             1184      person to prescribe, dispense, or administer a Schedule I controlled substance. In determining
             1185      public interest, the division shall consider whether or not the applicant has:
             1186          (i) maintained effective controls against diversion of controlled substances and any

             1194          (vi) complied with any other factors that the division establishes that promote the
             1195      public health and safety.
             1196          (b) Licenses granted under Subsection (3)(a) do not entitle a licensee to manufacture,
             1197      produce, distribute, conduct research with, or perform laboratory analysis upon controlled
             1198      substances in Schedule I other than those specified in the license.
             1199          (c) (i) Practitioners shall be licensed to administer, dispense, or conduct research with
             1200      substances in Schedules II through V if they are authorized to administer, dispense, or conduct
             1201      research under the laws of this state.
             1202          (ii) The division need not require a separate license for practitioners engaging in
             1203      research with nonnarcotic controlled substances in Schedules II through V where the licensee is
             1204      already licensed under this chapter in another capacity.
             1205          (iii) With respect to research involving narcotic substances in Schedules II through V,


             1206      or where the division by rule requires a separate license for research of nonnarcotic substances
             1207      in Schedules II through V, a practitioner shall apply to the division prior to conducting
             1208      research.
             1209          (iv) Licensing for purposes of bona fide research with controlled substances by a
             1210      practitioner considered qualified may be denied only on a ground specified in Subsection (4),
             1211      or upon evidence that the applicant will abuse or unlawfully transfer or fail to safeguard
             1212      adequately the practitioner's supply of substances against diversion from medical or scientific
             1213      use.
             1214          (v) Practitioners registered under federal law to conduct research in Schedule I
             1215      substances may conduct research in Schedule I substances within this state upon furnishing the
             1216      division evidence of federal registration.
             1217          (d) Compliance by manufacturers, producers, and distributors with the provisions of
             1218      federal law respecting registration, excluding fees, entitles them to be licensed under this
             1219      chapter.
             1220          (e) The division shall initially license those persons who own or operate an
             1221      establishment engaged in the manufacture, production, distribution, dispensation, or
             1222      administration of controlled substances prior to April 3, 1980, and who are licensed by the
             1223      state.
             1224          (4) (a) Any license pursuant to Subsection (2) or (3) may be denied, suspended, placed

             1234          (v) had the licensee's license suspended or revoked by competent authority of another
             1235      state for violation of laws or regulations comparable to those of this state relating to the
             1236      manufacture, distribution, or dispensing of controlled substances;


             1237          (vi) violated any division rule that reflects adversely on the licensee's reliability and
             1238      integrity with respect to controlled substances;
             1239          (vii) refused inspection of records required to be maintained under this chapter by a
             1240      person authorized to inspect them; or
             1241          (viii) prescribed, dispensed, administered, or injected an anabolic steroid for the
             1242      purpose of manipulating human hormonal structure so as to:
             1243          (A) increase muscle mass, strength, or weight without medical necessity and without a
             1244      written prescription by any practitioner in the course of the practitioner's professional practice;

             1246          (B) improve performance in any form of human exercise, sport, or game.
             1247          (b) The division may limit revocation or suspension of a license to a particular

             1252      appropriate representative committee designated by the director of the department.
             1253          (ii) Nothing in this Subsection (4)(c) gives the Division of Occupational and
             1254      Professional Licensing exclusive authority in proceedings to deny, revoke, or suspend licenses,
             1255      except where the division is designated by law to perform those functions, or, when not
             1256      designated by law, is designated by the executive director of the Department of Commerce to
             1257      conduct the proceedings.
             1258          (d) (i) The division may suspend any license simultaneously with the institution of
