Chips18, LLC (Project)The Department of Cannabis Control approved two medium outdoor commercial cannabis cultivation licenses for Chips18, LLC, submitted by Martin Thomas on March 19, 2026, authorizing the addition of up to two acres of canopy—each up to one acre—to an existing 40.5-acre cultivation site in Santa Barbara County, with a potential maximum total canopy size of 60 acres. The new canopy areas are located on previously graded agricultural land zoned for such use, and the site also operates a processing license. Water for irrigation is sourced from an onsite groundwater well, while power is supplied through PG&E and supplemental diesel generators. The project qualifies for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption under California Code of Regulations Title 14, Section 15301, indicating that the expansion involves minimal changes to existing agricultural use and does not require a full environmental impact review. The place of performance is identified as 3700 CA-135, Los Alamos, CA 95455, and no contract value, pricing, payment terms, delivery schedule, or invoicing method has been specified, as this is a licensing action under state cannabis regulations rather than a traditional federal procurement contract. There is no provision for solicitation numbers, contract types, or Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, as this is governed entirely by California’s Business and Professions Code and environmental laws. The Department of Cannabis Control remains the authoritative agency, with environmental and licensing oversight coordinated through its Environmental Evaluation Office, and the sole point of contact listed is Liana Huang, Environmental Scientist, reachable via email and phone. No certifications, socioeconomic designations, technical standards, inspection protocols, or contract administration personnel details are included, and the document functions as a forecast of licensing approval rather than a binding procurement contract with defined deliverables or performance conditions.
