§ 15020. Renewal of License.
Currentness
(a) To timely renew a license, a completed license renewal form and annual license fee pursuant to section 15014 shall be received by the Department from the licensee no earlier than 60 calendar days before the expiration of the license and no later than 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the last business day before the expiration of the license if the renewal form is submitted to the Department at its office(s), or no later than 11:59 p.m. on the last business day before the expiration of the license if the renewal form is submitted to the Department through its electronic licensing system. Failure to receive a notice for license renewal does not relieve a licensee of the obligation to renew all licenses as required.
(b) In the event the license is not submitted for renewal prior to the expiration date, the licensee must not sell, transfer, transport, manufacture, test, or distribute any commercial cannabis or cannabis products until the license is renewed.
(c) A licensee may submit a license renewal form up to 30 calendar days after the license expires. Any late renewal form will be subject to a late fee equal to 50 percent of the applicable licensing fee required by subsection (a). A licensee who does not submit a complete license renewal application, including the late fee, to the Department within 30 calendar days after the expiration of the license shall forfeit their eligibility for a license renewal and be required to submit a new license application.
(d) The license renewal form shall contain the following:
(1) The name of the licensee. For licensees who are individuals, the applicant shall provide both the first and last name of the individual. For licensees who are business entities, the licensee shall provide the legal business name of the commercial cannabis business.
(2) The license number and expiration date.
(3) The licensee's mailing address and licensed premises address.
(4) Documentation demonstrating the licensee's gross revenue for the current licensed period, such as a copy of the licensee's state tax return filed with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration. This subsection does not apply to the renewal of cultivation licenses.
(5) Documentation of any change to any item listed in the original application under section 15002 that has not been reported to the Department through another process pursuant to the Act or this division.
(6) An attestation that all information provided to the Department in the license renewal form and the original application under section 15002 or subsequent notification under sections 15023 and 15024 is accurate and current.
(7) If applicable, a limited waiver of sovereign immunity pursuant to section 15009.
(8) For a licensee with more than one employee, the licensee shall attest that it employs, or will employ within one year of renewing the license, one supervisor and one employee who has successfully completed a Cal-OSHA 30-hour general industry outreach course offered by a training provider that is authorized by an OSHA Training Institute Education Center to provide the course.
(9) For a licensee with 10 or more employees, a statement that the licensee has already entered into and will abide by the terms of a labor peace agreement.
(e) Beginning January 1, 2022, an application for renewal of a license to engage in commercial cannabis cultivation shall include the following records, for each power source indicated on the application for licensure for the previous annual licensed period:
(1) Total electricity supplied by local utility provider, name of local utility provider, and greenhouse gas emission intensity per kilowatt hour reported by the utility provider under section 398.4(c) of the Public Utilities Code for the most recent calendar year available at time of submission;
(2) Total electricity supplied by a zero net energy renewable source, as set forth in section 398.4(h)(5) of the Public Utilities Code, that is not part of a net metering or other utility benefit;
(3) Total electricity supplied from other unspecified sources, as defined in section 398.2(e) of the Public Utilities Code, and other onsite sources of generation not reported to the local utility provider (e.g., generators, fuel cells) and the greenhouse gas emission intensity from these sources; and
(4) Average weighted greenhouse gas emission intensity considering all electricity use in subsections (e)(1)-(e)(3).
