Section 26010.7.

(3) Notwithstanding any other law, the adoption of emergency regulations and the readoption of emergency regulations authorized by this

section shall be each submitted to the Office of Administrative Law for filing with the Secretary of State and shall remain in effect for no more than days, by which time final regulations may be adopted. (

c) Regulations issued under this division shall be necessary to achieve the purposes of this division, based on best available evidence, and shall mandate only commercially feasible procedures, technology, or other requirements, and shall not unreasonably restrain or inhibit the development of alternative procedures or technology to achieve the same substantive requirements, nor shall the regulations make compliance so onerous that the operation under a cannabis license is not worthy of being carried out in practice by a reasonably prudent businessperson.
