(B) Signage. At each location where cannabinoid products are sold, the licensee shall display a sign in plain view to provide public notice that selling any of these products to any person under the age of 21 is illegal and subject to penalties. The notice shall be placed in a conspicuous location in the licensed establishment and shall be readily visible to any person who is purchasing or attempting to purchase these products. The sign shall provide notice that all persons responsible for selling these products must verify, by means of photographic identification containing the bearer’s date of birth, the age of any person under 30 years of age.
(C) Age verification. At each location where edible cannabinoid products are sold, the licensee shall verify, by means of government-issued photographic identification containing the bearer’s date of birth, that the purchaser or person attempting to make the purchase is at least 21 years of age. Verification is not required if the purchaser or person attempting to make the purchase is 30 years of age or older. It shall not constitute a defense to a violation of this section that the person appeared to be 30 years of age or older.
