This bill proposes to amend the existing drug statutes by updating the threshold amount for hydrolyzed cocaine. Under current law, the threshold for hydrolyzed cocaine is set at 750 milligrams, which would be removed if the bill passes. Instead, hydrolyzed cocaine would be included in the existing threshold amount of nine grams for regular cocaine, effectively consolidating the two categories into one.

Additionally, the bill makes conforming changes to the numbering of the remaining threshold amounts for other substances, ensuring that the statute remains organized and clear. The overall effect of these changes is to simplify the legal framework surrounding cocaine and its derivatives, while eliminating the separate threshold for hydrolyzed cocaine. There is no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund associated with this legislation.
