The growth of the cannabis industry is created a problem – how to handle plant waste generated from the cultivation of cannabis. Licensed medical cannabis cultivators in both the United States and Canada are required to adhere to strict regulations regarding the disposal of waste generated from the cultivation process. Most cultivators have attempted to use composting as a method to handle the plant waste. But the composting process can take months and requires a substantial amount of space, space that could be better utilised to grow additional cannabis plants. As a result of no other alternatives, cannabis cultivators rely on mixing plant waste with other waste and paying for trucking costs to dispose of in the landfill. 

Medical Marijuana and Medical Marijuana-Infused Product waste must be made unusable and unrecognizable prior to leaving the Licensed Premises.

 

Inventory Tracking Requirements

1. Ensure post-harvest waste materials are identified, weighed and tracked while on the Licensed Premises until disposed of.

2. All Medical Marijuana waste must be weighed before leaving any Medical Marijuana Business. A scale used to weigh Medical Marijuana waste prior to entry into the MITS system shall be certified in accordance with measurement standards established in Article 14 of Title 35, C.R.S. See Rule M 309 – Medical Marijuana Business: Marijuana Inventory Tracking Solution (MITS).

3. A Licensee is required to maintain accurate and comprehensive records regarding waste material that accounts for, reconciles, and evidences all waste activity related to the disposal of Marijuana. See Rule M 901 – Business Records Required.

4. A Licensee is required to maintain accurate and comprehensive records regarding any waste material produced through the trimming or pruning of a Medical Marijuana plant prior to harvest, which must include weighing and documenting all waste. Unless required by a MITS procedure, records of waste produced prior to harvest must be maintained on the Licensed Premises. All waste, whether produced prior or subsequent to harvest, must be disposed of in accordance with this rule and be made unusable and unrecognizable.
