Sec. 1834. Criminal forfeiture

    (a) The court, in imposing sentence on a person for a violation of 
this chapter, shall order, in addition to any other sentence imposed, 
that the person forfeit to the United States--
        (1) any property constituting, or derived from, any proceeds the 
    person obtained, directly or indirectly, as the result of such 
    violation; and
        (2) any of the person's property used, or intended to be used, 
    in any manner or part, to commit or facilitate the commission of 
    such violation, if the court in its discretion so determines, taking 
    into consideration the nature, scope, and proportionality of the use 
    of the property in the offense.

    (b) Property subject to forfeiture under this section, any seizure 
and disposition thereof, and any administrative or judicial proceeding 
in relation thereto, shall be governed by section 413 of the 
Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970 (21 U.S.C. 
853), except for subsections (d) and (j) of such section, which shall 
not apply to forfeitures under this section.
