A licensee is authorized to engage in the growth,\n\ncultivation, handling or processing of industrial hemp and may\n\nremediate noncompliant industrial hemp with a total delta-9\n\ntetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than one percent\n\n(1.0%) on a dry-weight basis and prepare for retesting as set forth\n\nby the Department as long as the noncompliant industrial hemp has a\n\ntotal delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than\n\nthree-tenths of one percent (0.3%) on a dry-weight basis after\n\nretesting, or all or part of the product is disposed of in the\n\nprocess of remediation so that only a compliant product (with a\n\ntotal delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than\n\nthree-tenths of one percent (0.3%) on a dry-weight basis) is left,\n\nor all disposable waste is destroyed following a remediation\n\nprocess. Upon a sample collection verifying a compliant delta-9\n\ntetrahydrocannabinol concentration, the licensee shall harvest\n\nwithin thirty (30) days of sample collection.\n\n2. Remediation shall occur on the facility of the licensee.\n\nNoncompliant industrial hemp shall not leave such facility until a\n\ncompliant test is conducted by the Department or a lab approved by\n\nthe Department. Retesting of any noncompliant industrial hemp shall\n\nbe done within sixty (60) days post-harvest. Within seven (7) days\n\nof receiving notice of a measured tetrahydrocannabinol concentration\n\nthat exceeds the acceptable hemp tetrahydrocannabinol level but is\n\nless than one percent (1.0%), the licensed grower shall consent to\n\nthe destruction of all cannabis from that lot, or he or she may\n\nrequest remediation and a post-harvest retest in a homogenized form\n\nin accordance with the procedures established by the State Board of\n\nAgriculture. A measured tetrahydrocannabinol concentration that\n\nexceeds one percent (1.0%) shall require the licensed grower to\n\nproperly dispose of all cannabis from that lot. The retest fee\n\nshall be paid in an amount established by the State Board of\n\nAgriculture. Samples with a measured tetrahydrocannabinol\n\nconcentration of one percent (1.0%) or greater shall not be eligible\n\nfor a post-harvest retest or remediation and shall be destroyed.\n\n3. Licensees may sell industrial hemp grain and other\n\nindustrial hemp derivatives that are either grown or processed in\n\nthis state, that do not include the flower, for the purpose of\n\nlivestock feed and other animal consumption in this state if the\n\nlicensee meets the requirements for compliant hemp with a total\n\ndelta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration not more than three-\n\ntenths of one percent (0.3%).\n\nB. The activities performed under the Oklahoma Industrial Hemp\n\nProgram shall not subject the persons participating in the program\n\nto criminal liability under the Uniform Controlled Dangerous\n\nSubstances Act. The exemption from criminal liability provided for\n\nin this subsection is a limited exemption that shall be strictly\n\nconstrued and shall not apply to an activity that is not expressly\n\npermitted under the Oklahoma Industrial Hemp Program.","path":["OK Code","Title 2"],"source_url":"https://www.oklegislature.gov/OK_Statutes/CompleteTitles/os2.pdf","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:36Z","sha256":"ce770fefb914c386336038e51a12968830a049dd57975f9de9a19c401f9f1760","source_id":"us-ok","stale":false,"prev":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-2-2-3-402","next":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-2-2-3-404"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
