The MED sent out a Compliance Tip regarding Industrial Hemp Products. As of July 1, 2020, a Store may only sell Industrial Hemp Product (as defined by the Marijuana Code and Rule referenced above) that it received from a CDPHE Registrant AND that has passed all required testing. Stores are prohibited from accepting and/or selling plant material from an Industrial Hemp
plant.

A Denver Informational and Resource Bulletin came out this week due to an uptick in burglaries and letting operators know to be diligent and aware of increased crime.

Here are a few tips from the bulletin: 
 

Be Vigilant

• If you employ security guards at your business, have them make routine patrols of your property and be visible.
• Have security watch the outside of your building and parking areas, giving them time to identify and react to a potential threat.
• If you don’t have security, designate an employee to monitor the cameras and routinely check the outside of the business.
• Pay attention to individuals in your business. Criminals will often “case” a location to gather intel on the inner workings of the business. They may ask questions of your staff about what time you close, how many people are working, do you only take cash, etc.
• You may see these same individuals taking mental notes, and even pictures, of the layout of your business to include points of entry and office areas where video equipment and safes may be located.
• Do not hesitate to call the police! If it is an emergency, dial 911.
• If you see suspicious activity, call the non-emergency number at 720-913-2000. Non-emergency examples would be people sitting in your parking lot for extended periods of time or individuals in your store that employees feel are acting suspiciously. Make note of the type of vehicle and license plate numbers associated with suspicious people and activity.
