About the Rulemaking
On November 2, 2022, DOH filed a CR-101 to consider rulemaking to:
- Align quality assurance and control standards with recent WA State Liquor and Cannabis Board rule changes.
- Consider updated terminology and requirements for products compliant for medical use.
- Consider changes to compliant product labeling and logos.
- Address statutory sales and use tax exemptions for recognition cardholders.
- Replace the term "marijuana" with "cannabis" in accordance with Second Substitute House Bill 1210 passed in 2022.
Approach for the First Workshop & How to Provide Input
We will use the attached “rule discussion working document” during the rulemaking workshop to discuss each topic area and capture your feedback. A copy of current rule language is attached for reference.
You are welcome to send me written comments on this rulemaking at any time.
We will also ask attendees about preferred approaches for subsequent workshops as we begin to develop draft rule language for each topic of the rulemaking.
Please let me know if you have questions. Thank you!
