OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The Oklahoma State Department of Health is now accepting applications for medical marijuana licenses in the state.

The online application system went live at 10 a.m. Saturday at www.OMMA.ok.gov .

Health Department spokesman Tony Sellars says the licenses are for all potential medical marijuana patients, growers, dispensaries and caregivers. Ten minutes after the site went live, Sellars said the department had already received several applications.

The applications must be made online and cannot be submitted at state or county health offices. Residents needing computer access are encouraged to visit a public library or ask a friend or relative for access.
