Abstract
(HB6162 · 103rd Legislature) Marihuana: other; marihuana plant waste; allow for the transportation and disposal of. Amends secs. 3, 8, 10 & 14 of 2018 IL 1 (MCL 333.7953 et. seq.). Latest action (2026-07-14): Bill Electronically Reproduced 07/03/2026
Why this matters
Michigan’s licensed cannabis industry operates under the voter-approved 2018 Marihuana Initiative Law, and closing operational gaps like plant waste handling affects compliance costs and disposal practices for licensees. Clarifying who can legally move and dispose of plant waste reduces regulatory ambiguity for cultivators, processors, and waste handlers participating in the state’s cannabis economy.
