No disposition may be made of substances under such embargo until the time for taking an appeal has elapsed or until all appeals have been concluded unless a court, upon application therefor, orders the sale of perishable substances and the deposit of the proceeds of the sale with the court. Upon a revocation order becoming final, all controlled substances may be forfeited to the Commonwealth.(6) The Board shall promptly notify the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and, where appropriate the Department of Public Health of all orders suspending or revoking a controlled substances registration and all forfeitures of controlled substances.Amended by Mass Register Issue 1305, eff. 1/29/2016.
