LD 1620 Maine House · 132nd Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act To Amend The Laws Regulating The Testing Of Adult Use Cannabis And Adult Use Cannabis Products

LD 1620 modifies Maine's cannabis testing rules for adult-use products. It sets a specific limit of 100,000 colony-forming units per gram for yeast and mold contamination in cannabis products, requiring testing for harmful microbes like E. coli and salmonella. The bill also creates "audit testing," allowing licensed businesses that pass 10 consecutive mandatory tests without contamination to skip future pre-sale testing - after verifying results with the office. This directly affects cannabis businesses selling adult-use products in Maine.
