The Juneau Assembly outlawed certain marijuana refining methods for personal use Monday night in a 5-3 vote.
Using methods based on butane and propane are not permitted. The concern is that flammable gases used to make hash oil could cause fires or explosions.
Approved methods include water-, alcohol- and food-based extraction, which could create marijuana infused butter, olive oil or liquor.
On Feb. 23, the Juneau Planning Commission will consider two North Douglas property owners’ commercial grow application. The commission is the gatekeeper for the conditional use permit they need to operate.
