- (1) The licensee, registrant, or Commission-certified hemp handler is responsible for ensuring that all packages and labels are compliant with OAR 845-025-7000 to 845-025-7190. The Commission may find a package or label violates these rules even if the package or label has received previous approval.
- (2) After a package or label application has been approved, if the package or label is found to fall below the minimum standards described in these rules, the Commission may withdraw its label or package approval. The Commission will notify the licensee, registrant, or Commission-certified hemp handler of the withdrawal of approval and provide the licensee, registrant, or Commission-certified hemp handler with the deficiencies that provide the basis for the withdrawal. The licensee, registrant, or Commission-certified hemp handler will have 30 days after notification is sent by the Commission to correct the deficiencies. If the deficiencies identified by the Commission are not corrected within 30 days, the application may be denied. If the Commission denies a label or package application, the licensee, registrant, or Commission-certified hemp handler has the right to a hearing under the procedures in ORS chapter 183; OAR chapter 137, division 3; and OAR chapter 845, division 3.
- (3) With Commission approval, the licensee, registrant, or Commission-certified hemp handler may sell down any package or label inventory purchased during the time the application was approved.
