HB 6162 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Marihuana: other; marihuana plant waste; allow for the transportation and disposal of. Amends secs. 3, 8, 10 & 14 of 2018 IL 1 (MCL 333.27953 et seq.).

This bill amends Michigan's marijuana regulations to explicitly allow for the transportation and disposal of marijuana plant waste. It defines plant waste as roots, stalks, leaves, and stems intended for destruction through incineration, landfilling, composting, or anaerobic digestion, while clarifying that such waste is not considered hazardous waste. The legislation establishes specific roles for "marijuana disposers," who must be licensed operators or permitted incinerators authorized to receive and destroy this material. By adding these definitions and permissions, the bill provides a legal framework for licensed marijuana businesses to manage and dispose of plant remnants without violating environmental or waste disposal laws.
