(c) A marijuana cultivation facility shall segregate the harvest batch package from which the testing sample was selected until the marijuana testing facility reports the results from its tests. During this period of segregation, the marijuana cultivation facility that provided the sample shall maintain the harvest batch package in a secure, cool, and dry location to prevent the marijuana from becoming contaminated or losing its efficacy. The marijuana cultivation facility that provided the sample may not sell or transport any marijuana from the segregated harvest batch package until the marijuana testing facility has completed its testing and provided those results, in writing, to the marijuana cultivation facility that provided the sample. A marijuana cultivation facility may transfer untested marijuana to a licensed marijuana concentrate or standard marijuana product manufacturing facility to be used to make carbon dioxide or solvent-based extract before receiving test results in writing. After processing, the carbon dioxide- or solvent-based extract must pass all required tests. The marijuana cultivation facility shall maintain the testing results as part of its business books and records.
