Title
Controlled substances, to exempt non-psychoactive cannabinols derived from hemp from the controlled substance list, Sec. 20-2-23 am'd.
Description

Existing law lists tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) as a Schedule I controlled substance, but explicitly exempts THC found in hemp.

Delta-8 THC is a psychoactive substance that can be derived from hemp.
