A state senator who co-sponsored the bill legalizing the possession of cannabis extracts to treat children with epilepsy is considering ways to make it easier for Utah parents to get the oils, including potentially making them available at state liquor stores.

Sen. Steve Urquhart, R-St. George, says the problem parents face now is that it is still technically illegal under federal law for them to possess or transport the oils, which are extracts from marijuana plants high in a chemical called cannabidiol (CBD) but with almost all of the psychotropic ingredient THC removed.

Many Utah parents plan to drive to — or import the oils from — neighboring Colorado.

The federal government has stated it doesn’t plan to crack down on those complying with state law.

Register: How-to guide for qualified Utah residents to get cannabis oil cards

SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah Department of Health is now issuing hemp oil registration cards to those who qualify.

Officials said they are meant for Utah residents who are being treated for intractable epilepsy.

However, there is more to it than just picking up the card.

To apply, patients will have to get a neurologist certification, submit medical records, show proof of identity and residency and pay a $400 application fee.
