Three Rivers Cannabis MT LLC, operating retail locations under the Three Rivers Cannabis and Haze Bay brands, has had its license deactivated according to Montana's state license roster. The deactivation was recorded on October 6, coinciding with a broader wave of license removals in the state.

The closure appears part of a significant purge: at least 12 licensed operators—including cultivators, retailers, and manufacturers—lost active status on the same date, per the state roster. Montana currently maintains 535 open retail licenses, 296 cultivation operations, and 181 manufacturing facilities, suggesting the deactivations represent a modest but notable contraction.

The timing and scope of these simultaneous deactivations warrant monitoring. Whether they reflect enforcement actions, voluntary surrenders, or administrative housekeeping remains unclear from available records. Watch for any subsequent state announcement detailing the cause and whether additional license reviews are underway.
