Michigan’s marijuana laws mandate that both retail recreational and medical marijuana undergo comprehensive testing conducted by independent laboratories. The purpose of such testing is to identify and mitigate potential contaminants such as mold, mildew, and harmful chemicals. Ensuring the safety of users remains paramount under these regulations.
Homeless advocate Mike Karl attests to the local unhoused population retrieving the bags from a dumpster.
State regulations require that tested marijuana must be completely destroyed before disposal, in accordance with the guidelines set by the Cannabis Regulatory Agency. Additionally, the discarded marijuana samples must be rendered unrecognizable. Failure to comply with these regulations may result in the imposition of substantial fines by the state regulatory agency.
Karl says he is concerned about safety related to the discarded marijuana packets.

“My biggest thing is, if the homeless are out there, and going through this waste and smoking this stuff, they could get powder mildew in their lungs,” he says. “It could cause medical complications. Who knows what chemicals are in these testing kits that littered all over the ground back there. And it’s making out homeless sick. We have to act. We have to do something.”
Where the bags are coming from, however, is unclear. The bags have the names and license number of various dispensaries on them. A CRA spokesman declined to comment for this story.
