OAR 845-025-8580: Suspended Licenses: Posting of Suspension Notice Sign, Activities Allowed During Suspension

(1) Before 7 a.m. on the date a license suspension goes into effect, and until the suspension is completed, Commission staff must ensure that a suspension notice sign is posted on each outside entrance or door to the licensed premises. (2) The suspension notice sign must be posted in a way that allows any person entering the premises to read it. Licensees must use the suspension notice sign provided by the Commission. The sign will state that the license has been suspended by order of the Commission due to violations of the recreational marijuana laws (statutes or administrative rules) of Oregon. If there are multiple licenses at the location, the sign will specify which license privileges have been suspended. (3) During the period of license suspension, the licensee is responsible for ensuring: (a) Compliance with all applicable laws and rules; and (b) That the suspension notice sign is not removed, altered, or covered. (4) A licensee or licensee representative may not allow the sale, delivery to or from, or receipt of marijuana items at the licensed premises; the harvesting of marijuana; the destruction of marijuana; or the processing of marijuana or marijuana items during the period of time that the license is under suspension, except as otherwise permitted by the Commission in the order of suspension. During a period of time that the license is under suspension, a recreational marijuana licensee may operate the business only in compliance with this rule. (5) Sanction: (a) A violation of section (4) of this rule is a Category I violation. (b) A violation of section (2) or subsection (3)(b) of this rule is a Category IV violation.
