Waste Plan
Any excess or unusable medical marijuana or medical marijuana byproduct of a cultivation, manufacturing, dispensary, testing, or transportation facility shall be disposed of in the following manner:
Solid and liquid wastes generated during medical marijuana production and processing must be stored, managed, and disposed of in accordance with applicable state, tribal, local, and municipal laws and regulations. Facilities must keep records of the final disposal destinations of all such wastes for at least five (5) years
Wastewater generated during medical marijuana production and processing must be disposed of in compliance with applicable state, tribal, local, and municipal laws and regulation
Wastes from the production and processing of medical marijuana plants must be evaluated against state hazardous waste regulations to determine if those wastes qualify as hazardous waste. It is the responsibility of each waste generator to properly evaluate their waste to determine if it is a hazardous waste per 40 CFR 262.11 . If a generator’s waste does qualify as a hazardous waste, then that waste is subject to the applicable hazardous waste management standards
All solid waste, as defined by 40 CFR 261.2, must be evaluated under the hazardous waste regulations, including
Waste from medical marijuana flowers, trim, and solid plant material used to create an extract
Waste solvents, pesticides, and other similar materials used in the cultivation, manufacturing, or testing process
Discarded plant waste, spent solvents, and laboratory wastes from any medical marijuana processing or quality assurance testing
Medical marijuana extract that fails to meet quality testing must be rendered unusable prior to leaving a facility,including plant waste, such as roots, stalks, leaves, and stems
Medical marijuana plant waste that does not qualify as hazardous may be rendered unusable by grinding and incorporating the medical marijuana plant waste with other nonhazardous ground materials so the resulting mixture is at least fifty percent (50%) non-marijuana waste by volume. Material used to grind with the medical marijuana may be either compostable waste or non-compostable waste. Other methods to render medical marijuana waste unusable must be approved by the department before implementation
Medical marijuana waste that has been rendered unusable may be delivered to a permitted solid waste facility for final disposition
All facility waste of any type must be stored securely before final disposition, which can be done within the facility in areas designated for disposal activities or, if necessary, outside the facility in a locked, tamperresistant receptacle

If a facility identifies a reduction in the amount of medical marijuana in the inventory of the facility, the facility must document where in the facility’s processes the loss has occurred, if possible, and take and document corrective action. If the reduction in the amount of medical marijuana in the inventory of the facility is due to suspected criminal activity by a facility agent, the facility shall report the facility agent to the department and to the appropriate law enforcement agencies within twenty
