SB 697 establishes a new "medical marijuana transporter license" category in Oklahoma for businesses moving medical marijuana products between facilities. It requires licensees to use a seed-to-sale tracking system, transport products in GPS-equipped locked containers labeled "Medical Marijuana," and maintain secure storage facilities. The bill also creates a $25 annual "transporter agent" license for employees handling shipments, with requirements including background checks and state residency verification. This directly affects medical marijuana businesses, research facilities, and logistics providers needing to transport products within the state.
