Initially, the health authority will adopt tempo- rary rules because of the short time frame. Wagner said the agency does not have to take public comment on tempo- rary rules, but employees will look for opportunities for the public to weigh in.

Currently, adults age 21 and older in Oregon can possess marijuana but there is no outlet for them to legally purchase the drug. That is set to change October 1, when state law will allow medical marijuana dispensaries to sell limited types and quantities of pot to all adults. “It is a super rapid time frame with lots of things to get into place,” Steve Wagner, administrator of the Oregon Public Health 'LYLVLRQ¶V&HQWHUIRU+HDOWK Protection, said in a recent interview.

The health authority is also writing permanent rules to implement a broad array of new cannabis regulations lawmakers passed this year, from accreditation and testing standards for labora- tories that test pot products to product labeling and dosage standards. The authority will write rules to implement residency requirements lawmakers passed this year: two years of residency for growers and others involved LQVSHFL¿FDUHDVRIPDULMXDQD businesses, and residency for DOO SDUWLFLSDQWV LQ WKH VWDWH¶V medical marijuana program. Residency requirements for medical pot businesses take effect March 1, 2016. Oregon currently allows people from out of state to sign up for medical marijuana cards, which has made it easier for growers to justify enormous grows through a practice known as card stacking. The Oregonian reported last year WKDW WKH VWDWH¶V ODUJHVW OHJDO medical marijuana grow served 104 patients who all lived in California. Wagner said the new rules will determine how people can prove residency.
