Ohio Officials Post New Rules For Marijuana Packaging And Labeling Requirements As Market Expands
The rule package is now open for public comment
Ohio regulators have filed new proposed rules to build upon the state’s marijuana legalization law, laying out plans to update regulations on labeling and packaging requirements.
In a rule package that’s now open for public comment, the Department of Cannabis Control (DCC) put forward six proposals under the state’s Common Sense Initiative (CSI), which is meant to “eliminate excessive and duplicative rules and regulations that stand in the way of job creation.”
One of the proposed rules would require cannabis packaging to display a “universal THC symbol” that would aim to ensure consumer and law enforcement awareness that the product contains licensed and regulated THC.
Another rule would prescribe limitations on the amount of marijuana that could be sold within a given container. DCC also proposed setting requirements to ensure that certain packaging and labeling standards are met, including child-resistant materials for cannabis, before they are distributed for commercial sales.
