SALT LAKE CITY — Officials are doing everything they can to ensure that when medical cannabis becomes available in Utah it will be safe from pesticides, residual solvents, heavy metals and other contaminants.
"We want to know which pesticides, if any, are used and at what levels in order to protect human health," said Drew Rigby, director of Medical Cannabis and Industrial Hemp programs at the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food.
