(1) The purpose of OAR 846-026-7000 through 845-026-7070 is to set the minimum standards for the labeling of industrial hemp-derived vapor items that are for ultimate sale or transfer to a consumer at a retailer. These minimum standards are applicable to any person manufacturing a hemp-derived vapor item that will be transferred to a person other than a Commission licensee pursuant to ORS 571.336 and 571.337 and includes:

(a) A hemp handler that is licensed with the Oregon Department of Agriculture under ORS 571.281 to process industrial hemp into commodities, products or agricultural hemp seed.

(b) Any other person who is responsible for the labeling of an industrial hemp-derived vapor item sold in Oregon.

(2) The labeling requirements in these rules do not apply to a hemp vapor item manufacturer transferring a bulk quantity or amount of industrial hemp-derived vapor items to another hemp vapor item manufacturer for labeling.

(3) Nothing in these rules prohibits the Commission, the Authority, or the Oregon Department of Agriculture from:

(a) Imposing additional labeling requirements in their respective rules governing hemp vapor item manufacturers as long as those additional labeling requirements are not inconsistent with these rules; or

(b) Requiring hemp vapor item manufacturers to provide informational material to a consumer at the point of sale.

(4) These rules are effective on and after July, 1, 2022.
