A. The Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority shall, within thirty (30) days of passage of this initiative, make available on its website in an easy-to-find location an application for a commercial grower license. The application fee shall be Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00). A method of payment shall be provided on the website of the Authority. The Authority shall have ninety (90) days to review the application; approve, reject or deny the application; and mail the approval, rejection or denial letter stating the reasons for the rejection or denial to the applicant.

B. The Authority shall approve all applications which meet the following criteria:

C. A licensed commercial grower may sell marijuana to a licensed dispensary or a licensed processor. Further, sales by a licensed commercial grower shall be considered wholesale sales and shall not be subject to taxation. Under no circumstances may a licensed commercial grower sell marijuana directly to a licensed medical marijuana patient or licensed caregiver. A licensed commercial grower may only sell at the wholesale level to a licensed dispensary, a licensed grower or a licensed processor. If the federal government lifts restrictions on buying and selling marijuana between states, then a licensed commercial grower would be allowed to sell and buy marijuana wholesale from, or to, an out-of-state wholesale provider. A licensed commercial grower shall be required to complete a monthly yield and sales report to the Authority. This report shall be due on the fifteenth of each month and provide reporting on the previous month. This report shall detail the amount of marijuana harvested in pounds, the amount of drying or dried marijuana on hand, the amount of marijuana sold to licensed processors in pounds, the amount of waste in pounds, and the amount of marijuana sold to licensed dispensaries in pounds. Additionally, this report shall show total wholesale sales in dollars. The Authority shall have oversight and auditing responsibilities to ensure that all marijuana being grown by licensed commercial growers is accounted for.

D. There shall be no limits on how much marijuana a licensed commercial grower can grow.

E. Beginning on November 1, 2021, licensed commercial growers shall be authorized to package and sell pre-rolled marijuana to licensed medical marijuana dispensaries. The products described in this subsection shall contain only the ground parts of the marijuana plant and shall not include marijuana concentrates or derivatives. The total net weight of each pre-roll packaged and sold by medical marijuana commercial growers shall not exceed one (1) gram. These products must be tested, packaged and labeled in accordance with state law and rules promulgated by the Executive Director of the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority.

F. Beginning November 1, 2022, all medical marijuana commercial grower licensees who operate an outdoor medical marijuana production facility shall be required to register with the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture, Food, and Forestry as an environmentally sensitive crop owner. Registration shall provide notice to commercial and private pesticide applicators of the locations of medical marijuana crops and help minimize the potential for damaging pesticide drift. Medical marijuana commercial grower licensees shall provide their business name, address, Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates for all outdoor medical marijuana production facilities, and any other information required by the Department when registering with the Environmentally Sensitive Area Registry.
