The bill amends the Industrial Hemp Growers Act (2020 PA 220) by updating several sections, including definitions and regulations related to industrial hemp cultivation and processing. Key insertions include a clearer definition of "acceptable THC level," which specifies the measurement of uncertainty for total delta-9-THC concentration, and the introduction of terms such as "compliance monitoring testing facility" and "regulatory testing facility." The bill also modifies the definition of "grow" to exclude selling intermediary or finished industrial hemp products, and it clarifies the responsibilities of growers regarding registration and compliance with regulations.

Additionally, the bill repeals Section 801 of the Industrial Hemp Growers Act and makes provisions for the disclosure of personal information on applications, allowing for the potential sharing of applicants' contact details with growers if consent is given. It also emphasizes that registrations are nontransferable and outlines the requirements for growers regarding the sale and transportation of industrial hemp. Overall, the amendments aim to enhance regulatory clarity and compliance within the industrial hemp industry in Michigan.
