Laboratory With Controlled Substances

Purpose:

This registration is required for Laboratories that reside within the State of Connecticut that utilize controlled substances for research purposes or law enforcement entities that utilize controlled substances for canines.

INFORMATION REGARDING LABORATORY TESTING OF CANNABIS: 

Section 16 of Public Act 23-79 created a new license type for “cannabis testing laboratory”. A "cannabis testing laboratory" means a person who (A) is located in this state, (B) is licensed by the department to analyze marijuana, and (C) meets the licensure requirements established in section 21a-408r, as amended by Public Act 23-79, and the regulations adopted pursuant to subsection (d) of section 21a-408r, as amended by Public Act 23-79. 

Laboratories interested in analyzing cannabis must obtain a cannabis testing laboratory license. The Department is currently working to implement Public Act 23-79 and will post information on how to obtain a cannabis testing laboratory license on ct.gov/cannabis as soon as it is available.
