It looks like the new look Cannabis Compliance Board. in Nevada is already bearing its fangs and letting companis know it now has teeth and has moved on from the dramas of the past

The Las Vegas Review Jnl reports…Two Nevada marijuana companies are facing hefty fines and a possible loss of their licenses as part of the latest round of complaints filed Tuesday by the state’s Cannabis Compliance Board.

The new complaints are the latest since the board took over regulation of the industry in Nevada in July and show a continued push to crack down on companies that are in violation of the state’s marijuana laws.

The board on Tuesday also approved five settlements with companies that had been hit in the previous rounds of complaints, with most of them agreeing to reduced punishments than were proposed by the board.

On top of potentially losing its license, Nevada Medical Group, which operates the cultivation facility Body and Mind Cannabis in Las Vegas, is facing a proposed $255,000 fine after CCB investigators found that six employees were working at the facility with expired marijuana agent cards, which all employees who work for licensed cannabis companies in the state must have.

The investigators visited the business in August after they had received a tip, but not all of the tipster’s allegations proved factual, according to the complaint that was approved by the board Tuesday.

The second complaint was filed against Silver State Cultivation, which holds medical and recreational cultivation and production licenses. The complaint said that the company failed to keep a camera malfunction log, had no documentation of a required semiannual audit, wasn’t following marijuana disposal guidelines and had inventory that did not align with the state’s seed-to-sale tracking system. It is facing a potential revocation of its license and a $35,000 fine.
