Cannabis Cultivation Regulatory Program
Abstract:
Approved in November 2016, Proposition 64 legalized the growing, possession, and use of cannabis for non-medicinal purposes (i.e. recreational use) in California. Several state agencies are involved in regulating the various aspects of cannabis: cultivation, manufacturing, distribution, testing, and retail. The California Water Boards’ role is to ensure that the cultivation activities do not adversely affect surface and groundwater quality or water supply.
The State Water Board adopted a Cannabis Policy General Order in 2017 that established requirements for entities that cultivate cannabis. Three Regional Water Boards (Los Angeles, Santa Ana, and San Diego) are combined into the South Coast Region for purposes of regulating cannabis cultivation, and the unit serving the South Coast Region is headquartered in our Riverside office. The primary activities of the unit are processing applications for coverage under the Cannabis General Order, conducting inspections of permitted operations, and evaluating illegal grow sites.
