OMMA is seeking licensee input on proposed permanent rules that will be submitted for consideration by the Legislature and the Governor. While the rules are not approved or in effect, we wanted to share them with you as soon as possible.  

The proposed rules implement newly passed legislation like HB 2807, SB 518, SB 774, SB 1039 and SB 1066 from the 2025 legislative session and clarify sections of current rules. Amendments to allow display samples of up to 3.5 grams and make employee credentials valid for one year after the date they’re issued are meant to simplify regulatory requirements for Oklahoma businesses, while amendments to existing lab testing rules provide beneficial clarification.
