Training and Conferences
Indoor Marijuana Grow
February 14 & 15, 2012
Law Enforcement Center in Topeka, KS.
This two day (16 hour) Indoor Cannabis Cultivation
Investigator's Course is designed to equip investigating
officers and support personnel with the tools necessary to
detect, prosecute and testify in indoor marijuana grow
cases. Topics covered in this course will be cannabis
horticulture, cloning and germinating plants, and
cultivation equipment. How to locate and investigate indoor
grows will be discussed in depth. Numerous case studies and
investigations will be examined and critiqued.
The convenience, efficiency, and mobility of One Pot, aka
Shake and Bake, cooks make it the preferred method of
manufacturing methamphetamine in many states and record
numbers of labs are being reported. These labs are extremely
flammable and threaten the safety of law enforcement and the
public. Manufacturing methamphetamine by the One Pot method
is not difficult but understanding the process and following
proper safety procedures is critical to the safety of those
involved.
The one-day course will review the history and go over
the chemistry to help law enforcement better understand the
process and the hazards involved. Proper safety practices,
including the use of various engineering, administrative and
PPE hazard control options and procedures will be presented
to assist law enforcement who handle, sample and dismantle
these cooks. Proper and safe transportation and disposal
requirements and procedures will also be addressed as more
and more agencies are increasingly assuming this
responsibility. The course includes a live One Pot cook
demonstration at the conclusion of the course
To register for either class go to the MCTC website.

Riggin at (785) 633-8483 or (785) 368-9217.
