A warehouse that only stores controlled substances does not require a separate DEA registration. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) regulations state that only those entities that engage in the manufacturing, distributing, or dispensing of controlled substances need to register. Simply storing controlled substances does not fall into these categories, as long as the controlled substances are not being manufactured or distributed by that warehouse.

For a warehouse to need a separate DEA registration, it would have to be involved in activities such as distributing those substances to another location, or altering them (manufacturing). This means that an establishment solely storing controlled substances, akin to a storage facility, is not mandated to have its own registration as long as it is not involved in any of the activities that require DEA oversight. Therefore, the assertion that a warehouse only storing controlled substances does not need a separate registration is indeed true.
