Shinobi VSOP, LLC

Shinobi VSOP, LLC has been approved for a Small Outdoor commercial cannabis cultivation license by the California Department of Cannabis Control under Business and Professions Code Section 26012, authorizing the cultivation of up to 9,996 square feet of mature canopy on Assessor’s Parcel Number 019-390-008-000 in Trinity County, with Hayfork, California designated as the place of performance. The operation will utilize 204 structured 5'x5' growing boxes, each with a 7'x7' canopy area, and rely on existing infrastructure including a permitted groundwater well, two 550-gallon nutrient mixing tanks, two 2,500-gallon water storage tanks, a 6'x50' hoop house for immature plants, a 10'x12' shed for petroleum storage, and a 10'x10' waste and composting area. Proposed additions include three new 10'x12' sheds on previously disturbed land for ag chemical storage, harvest storage, and processing, all powered by generators under 50 horsepower. Wastewater is managed through a permitted onsite septic system. The approval was granted under CEQA categorical exemptions, specifically CCR Sections 15183 and 15301, aligning with Trinity County Ordinance 315-823 and Resolution 2020-103, which confirm consistency with local zoning and land use plans. No formal contract pricing, payment terms, delivery schedules, or federal acquisition clauses apply, as this is a state regulatory licensing action rather than a competitive procurement. The entity is identified as a small business with no socioeconomic or federal unique entity identifiers disclosed. Environmental oversight and compliance verification are managed by the Department of Cannabis Control’s Environmental Evaluation Office, with Michael Keys, Environmental Scientist, serving as the designated point of contact for regulatory matters.
