House Bill No. 2807, introduced by Marti, amends the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana and Patient Protection Act to enhance regulations for medical marijuana transporters. The bill establishes a medical marijuana transporter license applicable to various entities such as commercial growers, processors, dispensaries, and research facilities. It requires transporter licensees to create inventory manifests for documenting the transport and temporary storage of medical marijuana products and allows them to maintain warehouses under specific conditions, with the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority responsible for approving warehouse locations and issuing annual permits. The bill also introduces provisions for fingerprint-based criminal background checks for owners and employees of medical marijuana facilities and mandates record-keeping for seven years.

Additionally, the bill amends Section 431.1 of the Oklahoma Statutes to require that all medical marijuana flower and related products, excluding drinks, be sold in pre-packaged form by licensed processors and growers to licensed dispensaries, with package sizes ranging from one-half gram to three ounces. It allows the use of nonopaque materials for packaging, provided that the product is placed in an opaque container before leaving the dispensary. The Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority is tasked with creating rules for the pre-packaging of products, the return of defective or hazardous items, and the return of medical marijuana products between licensed entities. The act is set to take effect on June 1, 2025, with an emergency clause for immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
