PHYSICAL SECURITY REQUIREMENTS FOR MARIJUANA FARMS

The site design requirement is one of the most important in case of marijuana. As you know that there are three kind of license – Nursery, micro and standard. However, in case of security nothing much differs in these three kinds of licenses. Let’s discuss one by one how one differs than others. 

The primary target of health Canada is just to protect the site. When nursery marijuana space is in question, make sure there are physical barrier is there to protect unauthorized access. When there is matter of security breach through unauthorized access, all health Canada want us to make the things more and more secure. So, they say in their cannabis docs the site design in such way which will prevent unauthorized access. The perimeter, operations, storage area of the site must be protected in order to restrict unauthorized access as well. Design of the site and how it will prevent unauthorized access. Design of and materials used in the construction of the physical barriers, as applicable, including walls, floor/ceiling, door, etc. to ensure prevention of intrusion. Any access controls at entry/exit points of the site such as windows, doors, vents, etc. Details could include the number, type, location and specifications of the controls, such as construction, padlocks, etc.

For location and storage areas Each storage area must be located within an area that satisfies the security measures set out in subsection 68(1), section 69, subsections 70(1) and (3), subsection 71(1) and Section 72(s. 67) . Area clearly shown on the site and floor plans. Access to each operations area and storage area must be restricted to individuals whose presence in the area is required by their duties (s.68(1), s.74(d) and s.75) . Access control as well as details on the types, specifications, and locations of access control mechanisms installed and operating (e.g., card swipe, keypad code, combination lock, padlock, etc.) clearly marked and labelled with unique identifiers on security floor plans. 

All  the record of entry and exit must be checked as well. If any entry/ exit person is involved in any fact he or she must be notified to police as well. A record must be made of the identity of every individual entering or exiting a storage area. The perimeter of the site as well as each operations and storage area must be monitored at all times by visual recording devices to detect any attempted or actual unauthorized access to the site, or in the case of operations and storage areas, to detect illicit conduct.

The devices must, in the conditions under which they are used, be capable of making a visible recording of any attempted or actual unauthorized access or in the case of operations and storage areas, of any illicit conduct. For a grow area: only the entry and exit points of the area must be visually monitored by such devices.
