HB 1054 bans the chemical process of converting legal hemp-derived cannabinoids (like Delta-8 THC) into more potent forms through isomerization and acetylation, and prohibits the sale and possession of products made this way. This targets products that use legal loopholes to create intoxicating substances similar to marijuana without growing actual cannabis plants. Violators would face criminal penalties under South Dakota law.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
