AMENDMENT 20
The Commentary to §2D1.1 captioned "Application Notes" is amended by deleting:
"11. If it is uncertain whether the quantity of drugs involved falls into one category in the table or an adjacent category, the court may use the intermediate level for sentencing purposes. For example, sale of 700-999 grams of heroin is at level 30, while sale of 400-699 grams is at level 28. If the exact quantity is uncertain, but near 700 grams, use of level 29 would be permissible.".
Reason for Amendment: The purpose of this amendment is to delete an erroneous reference to interpolation, which cannot apply as the guideline is written.
Effective Date: The effective date of this amendment is January 15, 1988.
