Alaska marijuana regulators are considering eliminating two of the state’s daily marijuana purchase limits, potentially allowing adults to buy more concentrates and THC-containing products from licensed retailers.
The Alaska Marijuana Control Board is scheduled to discuss the proposal today as part of its September 2-3 meeting in Anchorage. The change is contained in an initial regulatory draft listed as Tab 57 on the board’s agenda, meaning the proposal remains under development and has not received final approval.
Under current Alaska regulations, a retail marijuana store may not sell any one person more than one ounce of usable marijuana, seven grams of marijuana concentrate for inhalation or 5,600 milligrams of THC in combined marijuana and marijuana product purchases per day.
The proposed regulations would repeal the seven-gram limit on inhalable marijuana concentrates and the 5,600-milligram combined THC limit. The one-ounce daily limit for usable marijuana would remain in place.
Regulators are also considering changes to separate limits governing marijuana sold for consumption at licensed onsite consumption areas. Those rules currently allow sales of up to one gram of flower, 25 milligrams of THC in edible products and a vaping device containing no more than 0.3 grams of marijuana concentrate per person per day. The draft does not yet specify exactly how those restrictions would change, instead leaving that question for the board to resolve.
The proposal stems from Alaska’s broader regulatory reform effort under Administrative Order 360, issued by Governor Mike Dunleavy in August 2025. The order directs state agencies to review regulations and reduce regulatory requirements by 15% by the end of 2026 and 25% cumulatively by the end of 2027.
During its February meeting, the Marijuana Control Board identified the concentrate and edible purchase limits as candidates for revision or removal while reviewing potential regulatory reforms.
Today’s agenda categorizes the purchase-limit proposal as an “Initial Draft for Board Discussion,” rather than a regulation ready for final adoption. The board could direct changes to the proposal or move it further through Alaska’s regulatory process following discussion.
The Marijuana Control Board meeting begins at 9 a.m. Alaska time today, with the purchase-limit proposal appearing among a larger package of marijuana regulatory reforms under consideration.
