US - New Jersey: The New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (CRC) has revoked Harmony Foundation’s cannabis cultivation and manufacturing licences due to unpaid licence fees. Across the country, state regulators and government bodies have been implementing significant measures and repercussions against cannabis companies that fail to pay vendors, taxes or business fees. California, Michigan, Nevada, New York and Oregon are some of the states that have been enforcing compliance by tracking miscreants, press reports.8th May 2023
- US - Oregon: Oregon Health Authority (OHA) has issued the first psilocybin service centre licence to EPIC Healing Eugene, allowing psilocybin services to become available soon in Oregon. People over the age of 21 can access psilocybin services without a prescription or referral, but must first complete a preparation session with a licensed facilitator. The service centres will distribute psilocybin products produced by licensed manufacturers and tested by licensed laboratories, and offer optional integration sessions for additional support. However, psilocybin products may not be taken away from the centre. Oregon Psilocybin Services (OPS) has issued three manufacturer licences, one laboratory licence, five facilitator licences, and 84 worker permits to date, and expects to issue more in the coming months.

US - Oregon: The Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (OLCC) has expanded a recall on cannabis vaping products for containing artificially-derived CBN and synthetic CBC.

US - Oregon: Governor Kate Brown has announced that she is issuing pardons for certain convictions for simple possession of cannabis prior to the state’s legalisation of recreational cannabis.

25th August 2022
US - Oregon: The Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (OLCC) and Curaleaf have reached an agreement whereby the company will pay a fine of $130,000 and have its licence suspended for 23 days for mistakenly labelling some of its THC products as CBD products, press reports. The agreement comes after regulators originally imposed a fine of $200,000 and a 70-day suspension. Curaleaf has been the subject of several lawsuits over the mistake.

- US - Oregon: The Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (OLCC) has confirmed to CBD-Intel that as of today (1st July) intoxicating artificially derived cannabinoids, such as delta-8 THC converted from CBD, cannot be made or sold anywhere – including in dispensaries – in the state. Numerous media outlets have been erroneously reporting that such cannabinoid products could still be sold in dispensaries. Artificially derived cannabinoids that are not intoxicating, such as cannabinol (CBN), may continue to be sold in dispensaries until 1st July 2023 if certain conditions are met.

The new law allows counties to declare an emergency and request that the state department of agriculture suspend the issuance of new hemp production licences within the county (retroactive to 1st January 2022). At least two Oregon counties have reportedly already declared such an emergency.
