At the workshops, staff will provide an overview of the:  (1) Cannabis Policy, which establishes the requirements for the Cannabis Cultivation Regulatory Program; (2) Cannabis General Order, which implements the Cannabis Policy requirements; (3) Cannabis Small Irrigation Use Registration Program, which provides a streamlined option to obtain an appropriative water right to divert surface water to irrigate commercial cannabis crops; and (4) online application portal for enrollment under the Cannabis General Order or to obtain a Small Irrigation Use Registration certificate.  Please see the attached flyer for details.  Please note that several venues are in the process of being confirmed and updates to the flyer will be released as necessary.  For additional information, please visit the State Water Board’s website at Cannabis Cultivation web portal at:  https://www.waterboards.ca.gov/cannabis/

This is a big pile of feces! Lets pick one plant and put special regulations on it. How is this even legal?

Think it has something to do with the federal Status. Until that changes & the enviro destruction that comes with its black market reputation decreases there will be more regulation.

When a business is well known for its disregard of rules and laws, then it’s like dealing with a teenager who tells says that no one told him that he couldn’t drive a truck when he was told not to drive a car. Many pot growers are the same, only lawyered up. You need to spell it out in detail.

Hey everybody! Sign away your own water rights on your own land! And then get buried by the large corporations anyway!! Isn’t this “legalization” just great? So free and safe- that’s us!

Merely another money grab by this overreaching, overempowered water board.
