  • The order also averts the use of local resources in support of federal and state actions against the substances “unless required by law.” The edict only applies to “natural” substances and excludes any synthetic ones.

Order amounts start at five or 10 and go up to no less than 500 for microdose capsules and 250 for either “extra-dose” pellets or “normal-dose” 150 microgram blotters. Read more HERE.
