§ 1311.15 Limitations on CSOS digital certificates.
(a) A CSOS digital certificate issued by the DEA Certification Authority will authorize

(b) When a registrant, in a power of attorney letter, limits a certificate applicant to a
subset of the registrant’s authorized schedules, the registrant is responsible for ensuring that the
certificate holder signs orders only for that subset of schedules.

(a) Each registrant, regardless of number of digital certificates issued, must designate one
or more responsible persons to serve as that registrant’s CSOS coordinator regarding issues
pertaining to issuance of, revocation of, and changes to digital certificates issued under that
registrant’s DEA registration. While the coordinator will be the main point of contact between
one or more DEA registered locations and the CSOS Certification Authority, all digital
certificate activities are the responsibility of the registrant with whom the digital certificate is

digital certificate to order controlled substances a CSOS Coordinator must be designated; though
in such a case, the individual practitioner may also serve as the coordinator.
(b) Once designated, coordinators must identify themselves, on a one-time basis, to the

notified of the change and the new responsibilities assumed by each of the registrant’s
coordinators, if applicable. Coordinators must complete the application that the DEA
Certification Authority provides and submit the following:
