<p>DCC supports cannabis businesses’ efforts to respond to this historic, statewide drought—including their efforts to answer state and local calls to conserve water.

In particular, DCC intends to work with licensees to explore ways that disaster relief may help make it economically feasible to participate in local fallowing programs.</p> | ||
