N.J. Admin. Code § 17:30A-10.2 - Accessibility of marijuana storage areas

(a) An ATC shall limit access to medicinal marijuana storage areas to the absolute minimum number of specifically authorized employees.

1. When it is necessary for employee maintenance personnel, nonemployee maintenance personnel, business guests, or visitors to be present in or pass through medicinal marijuana storage areas, the ATC shall provide for adequate observation of the area by an employee whom the permit holder specifically authorized by policy or job description to supervise the activity.

(b) Each alternative treatment center shall ensure that the storage of usable marijuana prepared for dispensing to patients is in a locked area with adequate security.

1. For purposes of this section, "adequate security," at a minimum, shall be assessed, established, and maintained based on:

i. The quantity of usable marijuana kept on hand;

ii. The alternative treatment center's inventory system for tracking and dispensing usable marijuana;

iii. The number of principal officers, directors, board members, agents, volunteers, or employees who have or could have access to the usable marijuana;

iv. The geographic location of the alternative treatment center and its associated environmental characteristics, such as the remoteness of the facility from local populations and the relative level of crime associated with the area;

v. The scope and sustainability of the security alarm system; and

vi. The findings of root cause analyses of any breaches of security and/or inventory discrepancies for usable marijuana at that location.
