Okla. Stat. tit. 2, § 2-3-403: Licensee authorization – Exemption from criminal

liability.

A. 1. A licensee is authorized to engage in the growth,

cultivation, handling or processing of industrial hemp and may

remediate noncompliant industrial hemp with a total delta-9

tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than one percent

(1.0%) on a dry-weight basis and prepare for retesting as set forth

by the Department as long as the noncompliant industrial hemp has a

total delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than

three-tenths of one percent (0.3%) on a dry-weight basis after

retesting, or all or part of the product is disposed of in the

process of remediation so that only a compliant product (with a

total delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than

three-tenths of one percent (0.3%) on a dry-weight basis) is left,

or all disposable waste is destroyed following a remediation

process. Upon a sample collection verifying a compliant delta-9

tetrahydrocannabinol concentration, the licensee shall harvest

within thirty (30) days of sample collection.

2. Remediation shall occur on the facility of the licensee.

Noncompliant industrial hemp shall not leave such facility until a

compliant test is conducted by the Department or a lab approved by

the Department. Retesting of any noncompliant industrial hemp shall

be done within sixty (60) days post-harvest. Within seven (7) days

of receiving notice of a measured tetrahydrocannabinol concentration

that exceeds the acceptable hemp tetrahydrocannabinol level but is

less than one percent (1.0%), the licensed grower shall consent to

the destruction of all cannabis from that lot, or he or she may

request remediation and a post-harvest retest in a homogenized form

in accordance with the procedures established by the State Board of

Agriculture. A measured tetrahydrocannabinol concentration that

exceeds one percent (1.0%) shall require the licensed grower to

properly dispose of all cannabis from that lot. The retest fee

shall be paid in an amount established by the State Board of

Agriculture. Samples with a measured tetrahydrocannabinol

concentration of one percent (1.0%) or greater shall not be eligible

for a post-harvest retest or remediation and shall be destroyed.

3. Licensees may sell industrial hemp grain and other

industrial hemp derivatives that are either grown or processed in

this state, that do not include the flower, for the purpose of

livestock feed and other animal consumption in this state if the

licensee meets the requirements for compliant hemp with a total

delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration not more than three-

tenths of one percent (0.3%).

B. The activities performed under the Oklahoma Industrial Hemp

Program shall not subject the persons participating in the program

to criminal liability under the Uniform Controlled Dangerous

Substances Act. The exemption from criminal liability provided for

in this subsection is a limited exemption that shall be strictly

construed and shall not apply to an activity that is not expressly

permitted under the Oklahoma Industrial Hemp Program.
