Rule Details

Rule Number: 23P012
Title: Rule 2: Regulation of Cannabis Establishments.
Type: Standard
Status: Adopted
Agency: Vermont Cannabis Control Board
Legal Authority: 7 V.S.A. ยง 843(b)(1)
Summary: Rule 2 regulates the operation of any entity that has received a license to participate in the legal market for cannabis. Proposed amendments improve upon omitted or ambiguous definitions; address the need of outdoor cultivators to use artificial lighting in limited circumstances; clarify the entities to which the rule applies; refine escrow requirements; update the text of mandated health warnings; clarify location requirements; recognize personal-use cultivation; allow for the sale of clones; and refine rules pertaining to laboratories.
Persons Affected: All individuals who seek to participate in a legal cannabis market either as consumers or sellers, businesses that seek to join the market, businesses that may service the cannabis industry, such as construction, HVAC, and agricultural enterprises, the Health Department, the Agency of Agriculture, Food, and Markets, the Board of Natural Resources, the Agency of Natural Resources, and others.
Economic Impact: On the whole, these rule amendments will have only a small economic impact. Most of the amendments are technical and will have no economic impact. One amendment could increase the economic viability of outdoor cannabis cultivators by allowing a limited use of lighting in the spring to lengthen the growing season.
