Answer: (B)

When controlled substances are stolen or lost, you report it to the DEA using DEA Form 106. This form is completed in triplicate and all copies are sent to the Drug Enforcement Administration. Sending every copy to the DEA ensures the agency has a complete, centralized record for investigation and compliance purposes. The DEA will maintain the documentation and coordinate any further action as needed.
