Senate Bill No. 534 amends Oklahoma's laws regarding medical marijuana transportation by introducing a new "medical marijuana transporter license." This license will be available to various qualifying entities, such as licensed dispensaries, growers, and research facilities, allowing them to transport medical marijuana products to other licensed facilities and directly to patients with a 100% disability rating, as indicated by a Veterans Affairs Benefit Summary Letter. The bill establishes specific requirements for these licenses, including the necessity of an inventory manifest and sales receipts for transportation, and mandates that deliveries to patients be conducted through a third-party vendor.

Additionally, the bill outlines the responsibilities of transporter licensees, such as maintaining secure storage, utilizing a seed-to-sale tracking system, and ensuring compliance with safety regulations. Vehicles used for transport must be equipped with GPS trackers and adhere to security standards. The legislation also introduces a Medical Marijuana Veterans Transporter Pilot Program, which allows qualifying entities to transport medical marijuana to veterans with a 100% disability rating, set to expire two years after its effective date. The Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority is responsible for creating the rules necessary for implementing this program.
