The bill amends Section 427.16 of the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana and Patient Protection Act to establish a medical marijuana transporter license, which is necessary for transporting or transferring medical marijuana products between licensed businesses and facilities. It outlines the requirements for obtaining this license, including the need for proper application and approval from the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority, which must determine that the proposed site and facility are suitable. The bill also specifies that the transporter license is valid for one year, cannot be transferred with ownership changes, and mandates the use of a seed-to-sale tracking system to document the transport and temporary storage of medical marijuana products.

Additionally, the bill introduces new provisions regarding the documentation required for transporting medical marijuana, including detailed inventory manifests that must be prepared at the origination point and include specific information about the originating and receiving licensees. It also allows licensed transporters to maintain warehouses for temporary storage, provided they meet security and approval requirements. The bill emphasizes the importance of compliance with regulations, including the potential for revocation of licenses for violations, and establishes an effective date of November 1, 2025, for these changes.
