Major weed enforcement the first act against a Long Island company

Today, the New York State Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) issued a Notice of Pleading (NOP) against Omnium Health, Inc. (d/b/a Omnium Canna), a processing and distribution licensee out in Suffolk County. OCM charges Omnium with facilitating a scheme that allowed unlicensed cannabis businesses to hide under Omnium’s license and produce cannabis sold to retailers across the state. The allegations detail actions that violate state law, undermine New York’s goals for equity in business development, and harm the businesses who work hard to follow OCM’s compliance rules.

If guilty, the fines are over millions and possible termination of the license. The investigation started in February following a referral from the agency’s Compliance team to the Trade Practices Bureau (TPB). TPB investigators examined audit and inspection records, reviewed contracts between Omnium and the unlicensed businesses, and took testimony from several witnesses.

This is the first major enforcement against cannabis transparency in NY.
