Bill > LD1567

This bill establishes new requirements for radiation treatment and ozonation of adult use cannabis in Maine. Specifically, the bill mandates that equipment used to treat cannabis with radiation or ozone must be registered with the Office of Cannabis Policy and be subject to inspection by the office in coordination with the Department of Health and Human Services. The office will develop safety guidance for equipment operation and maintain a public list of registered equipment. Additionally, the bill requires that cannabis and cannabis products be labeled with information about any radiation treatment or ozonation they have undergone. This means that when consumers purchase cannabis products, they will now see clear information about whether the product has been treated with radiation or ozone, providing greater transparency about the processing methods. The bill instructs the Office of Cannabis Policy to adopt routine technical rules to implement these new requirements, ensuring that the registration, inspection, and labeling processes are standardized and clear.
