Cannabis Compliance Resources

As a regulated marijuana or hemp business, it is important to stay on top of regulatory changes to protect your business. Testing is an important component of overall compliance with MED or CDPHE regulations. Here at Nordic Analytical, we strive to be a resource for information on sampling and testing requirements. We’ve compiled some useful links and documents to aid in the testing process as a quick reference. We will update these resources as new information becomes available. For the latest updates, visit the MED’s website.

These rules went into effect at the turn of the year. There are many changes to testing included in this most recent revision. 

The MED issued an industrywide bulletin on 12/30/2021 regarding the delayed implementation of emissions testing for vaporizer delivery devices.

The MED published a process validation flowchart for licensees to better understand the pathway to acheiving process validation (soon to be Reduced Testing Allowance).

These publications from the MED are targeted to help licensees comply with the regluations by providing guidance on the interpretation of rules.

Industry-wide bulletins are periodically sent out as needed to highlight regulatory changes and other industry-specific areas of concern.

This training video outlines sampling procedures for licensees, and can be used as a part of training for designated test batch collectors.

This publication outlines the regulations for the manufacturing and distribution of industrial hemp products in Colorado.

The CDPHE sent out a bulletin in response to questions surrounding Delta-8, Delta-10, exo-THC, and other chemically modified cannabinoids.

This list of pesticides is currently mandated for industrial hemp products, and will be in effect until April 1, 2022.
