BCC Cannabis Application Form - Getting Answers
The BCC is pretty much driving everyone crazy at this point. You can't call them, and when you email them, they just quote regulations back at you. It's hard to tell if they even know what they are doing, yet you have to satisfy their requirements and keep them happy in order to operate. It feels like typical government bureaucracy. :(
You definitely don't want to miss anything in your application form submission process! It could delay your license by months, so it's definitely not advised to write short informal answers in these forms. We want to help you get them right, and our vast experience in cannabis license support and navigating California cannabis regulations can make a big difference.
Up until February of 2019, we didn't know what the BCC would definitively require in terms of operating procedures from applicants. We are now learning that, even if you submitted full SOPs last year, the new application forms must be submitted and are meant to satisfy the entire requirement for operating procedures. For most applicants, these include Non-Laboratory Quality Control Procedures, Inventory Procedures, Security Procedures, Transportation Procedures, and Delivery Procedures. Manufacturer's doing closed-loop extraction will also be required to submit a Hazard Analysis plan.
The operating plan templates we sell on this website are much more detailed than the answers required on the BCC application forms. To deal with this change in strategy from the BCC, we are now offering custom quick-turnaround cannabis application form answer support that will give you about 90% of what you need to complete the forms (the other 10% includes your premises diagram and methods that are unique to your business).
These are the required forms for most cannabis application business types:
BCC-LIC-015 Transportation Procedures Form
BCC-LIC-016 Inventory Procedures Form
BCC-LIC-017 Non-Laboratory Quality Control Procedures
BCC-LIC-018 Security Procedures Form
BCC-LIC-020 Delivery Procedures Form
