Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:

chapter 19. agriculture.

Article 16. west virginia seed law.

§19-16-3. Certificate of registration; seed fees; payment of fees; disposition of funds.

(a) No person may distribute any agricultural, vegetable, tree and shrub, or flower seeds, or seed potatoes without a valid certificate of registration issued by the commissioner. Application forms shall be provided by the commissioner and the application fee shall be set forth in a legislative rule. Each certificate of registration expires on December 31 following the next date of issue. A dealer may not be required to register, if he or she can prove that the person he or she is obtaining the seed from has a valid certificate of registration.

(b) A person shall apply for a certificate of registration at least 15 days prior to the expiration of the current registration; or at least 15 days prior to the date that the person intends to engage in business in this state. Each application shall be accompanied by the required application fee. The commissioner shall add a penalty to the fee for each registration, as set forth in legislative rules, that is not applied for or renewed within the time limit.

(c) Certificates of registration are not transferable with respect to persons or locations.

(d) The commissioner may refuse to grant, or may suspend or revoke, a certificate of registration when it is determined that the applicant or registrant has violated the provisions of this article or any rule promulgated under this article: Provided, That the applicant or registrant may request a hearing prior to the denial of the application or suspension or revocation of the registration.

(e) Each person who holds a valid certificate of registration is required to pay a tonnage fee on seed sold in this state and shall report to the commissioner the net pounds or kilograms of seeds distributed and sold by kind or variety, except for seed potatoes, on a quarterly basis. Each report shall be filed under oath and is due before the last day of January, April, July, and October of each year for the preceding three-month period. He or she shall pay the tonnage fee according to the fee schedule for agriculture, vegetable, tree and shrub, and flower seeds as set by legislative rules. The commissioner may add a penalty, as set forth in legislative rules, to the tonnage fee for each tonnage report that is not filed on time.

(f) Persons distributing vegetable and flower seeds packaged in containers of eight ounces or 226.8 grams or less and sold from display units are exempt from reporting poundage and paying a poundage fee: Provided, That a seed stamp be purchased from the commissioner, at the rate set by legislative rules, and placed in a conspicuous place on each display unit.

(g) Persons first distributing seed potatoes into West Virginia trade channels shall report to the commissioner the net pounds or kilograms of seed potatoes distributed monthly in arrears: Provided, That payments for the previous month shall be made not later than the 15th day of the following month, as set by legislative rules.

(h) A person who holds a valid certificate of registration shall keep accurate records, as may be necessary or required by the commissioner, to indicate the pounds of agricultural, vegetable, tree and shrub, or flower seeds, or seed potatoes distributed in this state.

(i) The commissioner may issue Special Business Incubator Permits to individuals, business entrepreneurs, research laboratories, and other permit projects as the commissioner may describe, for the purpose of encouraging West Virginia residents and entrepreneurs to develop certified seed stock strains of industrial hemp or medical cannabis as authorized pursuant to the provisions of §19-16-3c, of this code, and pursuant to the provisions of chapter §16A-1-1 et. seq., and §19-12E-1 et seq. of this code.

(i) (i)  All fees and penalties collected under the provisions of this article shall be deposited with the State Treasurer in a special revenue account. These moneys shall be expended by the Commissioner of Agriculture for inspection, sampling, analysis, and other expenses necessary for the administration of this article.

§19-16-3a. Industrial hemp and medical cannabis seed certification program; requirements; fees; rulemaking.

(a) The commissioner may create and administer an industrial hemp, business incubator and medical cannabis seed certification program to obtain and develop varieties of seeds which meet the purposes and provisions of §19-12E-1 et seq. and §16A-1-1 et seq. of this code. The program shall be consistent with this article, §16A-1-1 et seq. of this code, and applicable federal law. This program may include West Virginia landrace cannabis seed varieties. For the purposes of this article, “West Virginia landrace cannabis seed” means seed from the plant cannabis sativa that possesses characteristics of a unique and specialized cannabis seed variety that is present in West Virginia or has been recognized as produced in West Virginia.

(b) Persons or entities, licensed pursuant to §19-12E-1 et seq. of this code, or §16A-1-1 et seq. of this code, may obtain a license for the development of industrial hemp or medical cannabis varieties for certification. The commissioner may assess a fee, consistent with the provisions of §19-12E-7 of this code this article, to operate and administer the seed certification program. The fees shall be deposited in the Agricultural Fees Fund established by §19-1-4c of this code.

(c) The commissioner may promulgate emergency rules and shall propose rules for legislative approval pursuant to §29A-3-1 et seq. of this code for the purpose of implementing the provisions of this section.

§19-16-3c. Special Business and Resident Incubator Permit program; rulemaking; permitting resident cultivation; and prohibiting asset forfeiture.

(a) The Legislature finds and declares that agricultural hemp has been decriminalized in this state since 2002 (Senate Bill 477), and federally in the 2018 Farm Bill, medical cannabis is further recognized in this state, nullifying the federal schedule of cannabis as having no medical properties, and medical cannabis is recognized in 30 other states as having medical benefit, and West Virginia can be a leader in the development of certified seed stock for industrial hemp and medical cannabis strains and varieties, therefore a Special Business and Resident Incubator Permit program is created under the Commissioner of Agriculture to regulate what can be a vibrant industrial hemp and medical cannabis seed certification program.

(b) The commissioner shall propose rules based on the best industry standards for legislative approval by June 1, 2021, specifying the requirements for applying for, issuance and renewal of a Special Business or Residential Incubator Permit, and encouraging the research and development of commercial seed stock strains of industrial hemp or medical cannabis in this state. Seed stock developed pursuant to and in substantial compliance with the provisions of this article may be named, labeled, or otherwise branded as certified by the State of West Virginia.

(c) The legislative rules for the Special Business and Resident Incubator Permit program promulgated by the commissioner pursuant to §29A-3-1 et seq., of this code, shall describe:

(1) The permit fees for commercial growing operations larger than 100 mature flowering plants per strain: Provided, That state residents may be permitted to cultivate less than 36 mature flowering plants per strain on an experimental basis, pursuant to the provision of this section and the rules thereunder: Provided, however, That where the resident is an individual experimenting with relevant horticultural activities pursuant to this article, §19-12E-1 et seq., of this code, or §16A-1-1 et seq., of this code, and without remuneration, the commissioner shall issue a Resident Incubator Permit to a qualifying resident of this state, and the permit holder may not be charged a fee;

(2) The application requirements for a Special Business Incubator Permit for commercial growers;

(3) The application requirements for a Resident Incubator Permit for individual cultivation;

(4) Testing requirements for the CBD and THC potency content of each strain, including provisions for research and development of strains and varieties that can exceed the thresholds specified in §19-12E-1 et seq., of this code;

(5) Testing requirements for pesticides, heavy metals, and other health factors deemed appropriate by the commissioner;

(6) Provisions for preventing diversion of any product or by-product of cannabis as an authorized activity pursuant to the provisions of this section; and  

(7) Security measures for special incubator permittees.

(d) Permittees in substantial compliance with the provisions of this section promoting West Virginia industrial hemp and medical cannabis seed development and certification may not be subject to civil asset forfeiture under any provision of this code.

(e) The commissioner may issue a special incubator permit for seed research and development conducted by any institution of education in this state.
