Alcohol Beverage Control Commissioner rule relating to retail enforcement of select plant-based derivatives and derivative products, including hemp and kratom

Senate Bill 345 authorizes West Virginia's Alcohol Beverage Control Commissioner to create and enforce rules for retailers selling certain plant-based products, specifically hemp and kratom. The bill amends existing law to formally permit the commissioner to develop regulations governing the retail sale of these products under the existing 175 CSR 11 regulatory code. This legislation does not create new rules itself but enables future rulemaking to address retail enforcement. It directly affects retailers who sell hemp-derived products and kratom within West Virginia. The bill is procedural, focusing on enabling regulatory action rather than defining specific policies.
