Cannabis Task Force Drafts Environmental Best Practices Report for Oregon Lawmakers


Oregon lawmakers should back a certification process that encourages the marijuana industry to pay closer attention to how it uses natural resources and to examine potential water-regulation changes to encourage small cannabis growers.

Those are among the recommendations in a draft report prepared by the Task Force on Cannabis Environmental Best Practices, a panel comprising growers, state agency representatives and lawmakers. The group studied the use of electricity and water along with agricultural practices in the marijuana industry.
