Inspection Findings: Recommendations It is recommended that procedures for testing, transfers, operation, record keeping, and labeling be made more robust, thorough, and organized. Scanned copies of documents were accessible through the computer hard drive; however, were not accessible through the POS system even though they had been uploaded. It is recommended that the facility work with the POS company to resolve this technical deficiency. Transfer documentation was somewhat disorganized and, although all of the required information was recorded, the documents had to be reviewed as a whole because the information was spread throughout many forms and records. It is recommended that the facility ensure that each record contains all of the required information. It is recommended that the facility move the signage to directly on the door to the dispensing room (currently posted above the door) so that its more conspicuous. Deficiencies OAR 333-008-1140: Security o 1140(5)(b) When the facility is closed, not all usable marijuana is kept in a safe. Edibles were left in unsecure refrigerator and freezer.
