(ii) Hexahydrocannabinol – no double bonds in the C ring;

(iii) Carboxylates (C-2 and C-4) of tetrahydrocannabinols or hexahydrocannabinol:

(A) Delta-9-THC acid (Delta-9-THCA);

(B) Similar carboxylates of Delta-9-THCA for tetrahydrocannabinols in (1)(i)(A) through (F) of this subsection (i); and

(C) Carboxylate esters in (1)(i)(A) through (F) of this subsection (i);

(iv) Alkyl analogues (C-3) of tetrahydrocannabinols or hexahydrocannabinol:

(A) Delta-9-THCP (Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabiphorol) and n-alkyl analogues;

(B) Similar alkylated analogues of Delta-9-THC for tetrahydrocannabinols in (1)(i)(A) through (F) of this subsection (i); and

(v) Hydroxylated analogues of tetrahydrocannabinols or hexahydrocannabinol:

(A) 11-hydroxy-delta-9-THC and 8- and 10-hydroxy analogues; and

(B) Similar hydroxylated analogues of Delta-9-THC for tetrahydrocannabinols in (1)(i)(A) through (F) of this subsection (i);

(2) Possesses significant CB1 agonist activity as demonstrable by binding affinity (Ki) to the CB1 receptors at less than 200 nM; and

(3) Results in positive effects for all four components of the tetrad test in rodents or reliably causes functional impairment in humans as assayed by a method possessing scientific consensus.

(j) "Class B cannabinoid" means all cannabinoids that do not meet the form and function of class A cannabinoids.

"NEW SECTION. Sec. 13. A new section is added to chapter 69.50 RCW to read as follows:

Class A cannabinoids may not be sold in the general market, except naturally occurring hemp delta-9-THC and THCA at or below 0.3 percent with marketed and labeled class B cannabinoids present."

Renumber the remaining sections consecutively and correct any internal references accordingly.

Correct the title.

EFFECT:   Removes the definition of the term "impairing." Adds a definition of the terms "class A cannabinoid" and "class B cannabinoid." Defines "class A cannabinoid" as a substance that meets specific structural and functional criteria. Defines "class B cannabinoid" as all cannabinoids that do not meet the form and function of class A cannabinoids. Changes references in the substitute bill from "cannabinoid that may be impairing" to "class A cannabinoid" and "nonimpairing cannabinoid" to "class B cannabinoid." Specifies that class A cannabinoids may not be sold in the general market, except naturally occurring hemp delta-9-THC and THCA at or below 0.3 percent with marketed and labeled class B cannabinoids present.
