§ 35-61-105. Report of growth and sales activities - verification of crop content - testing - waiver of concentration limits - rules
(1) At least annually and more often as required by the commissioner, a person who obtains a registration under this article to engage in industrial hemp cultivation for commercial purposes shall file with the department a report that includes the following information:
(a) Prior to planting, a verification that the crop the registrant will plant is of a type and variety of hemp that will produce a delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of no more than three-tenths of one percent on a dry weight basis;
(b) Documentation demonstrating that the registrant has entered into a purchase agreement with an in-state industrial hemp processor; and
(c) Any other information required by the commissioner by rule.
(2) The commissioner, in consultation with the committee, shall adopt rules to establish an inspection program to determine delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol levels and ensure compliance with the limits on delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration. The commissioner shall determine the delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration by measuring the combined concentration of delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol and its precursor, delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinolic acid. The rules shall also establish a process by which a registrant may apply to the commissioner for a waiver from the delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration limits under circumstances specified in the rules.
