That come with the changes.
Alicia says: the olcc has changed how dispensaries operate -- and how law enforcement police marijuana operations.
As more and more states rolled out stay-home orders, the olcc has made temporary changes to help make legal marijuana accessable.
Brie says: "olcc was really responsive and i've been really really pleased with ol cc they've really been listening to the needs of the industry and to consumers" one of the major changes allows alcohol and marijuana licensees to accept expired oregon driver licenses or idenfication cards that expired on or after march 8th.
Brie says: "a lot of people are concerned about their drivers license is expiring and not being able to go get a valid id" that decision aligns with the d-m-v since offices are now closed -- making it impossible to get a renewed license.
The olcc has also approved a temporary rule that allows licensed marijuana retailers to take orders and deliver product.
The rule also increases the amount of flower that ommp cardholders and caregivers can purchase to 24 ounces per day and no more than 32 ounces per month.
In california, there hasn't been changes in regulations outside of gov.
Newsom's executive order that declared marijuana dispensaries are considered essential.
Siskiyou county sheriff lopey says he's seen an increase in marijuana use in the county and has deputies watching for drivers under the influence of marijuana -- especially today.
Lopey says: "because it's a symbolic day especially after 420 today it's encouraging people to get together and to consume marijuana in celebration of this is symbolic day and my concern is that we could have groups of people gathering and consuming marijauan products and because we are a big county a lot of the time these people are operating a motor vehicle."
