The state moved a few steps closer to setting up a medical marijuana program as the health department posted draft rules for dispensaries Tuesday and said temporary regulations for growers and processors would be made public in a few days.
The draft regulations for dispensaries would prohibit facilities within 1,000 feet or schools or daycare center and require employees to be at least 18 years old. Visitors would be notified they are under video surveillance inside the establishments.
The regulations will address the electronic tracking of marijuana from seed to final product, how to maintain equipment, the disposal of marijuana, the use of pesticides, fees, tax reporting rules and insurance requirements.
The governor signed a bill in April that allows patients to take medical marijuana by pill, oil, vapor, ointment or liquid.
