ACTON, MASS. (WHDH) - The state’s Cannabis Control Commission has ordered an Acton marijuana facility to temporarily cease and desist all operations.
The commission announced on Friday that is has ordered Massachusetts Wellspring to stop operating.
Officials did not release any details regarding their reasoning for shutting down the dispensary, saying only that their concerns had to do with security, sanitation, waste disposal and labeling.
“It’s my understanding that they did an unannounced inspection, found a number of concerns and irregularities there and that is exactly what they are supposed to do,” Gov. Charlie Baker said.
The commission is not recalling any products at this time.
State regulators could suspend or revoke Mass. Wellspring’s license.
Patients are being urged to visit the program’s website to identify alternative registered marijuana dispensary locations.
