DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration

 
Current List of Laboratories Which Meet Minimum Standards To 
Engage in Urine Drug Testing for Federal Agencies

AGENCY: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) notifies 
Federal agencies of the laboratories currently certified to meet the 
standards of Subpart C of the Mandatory Guidelines for Federal 
Workplace Drug Testing Programs (Mandatory Guidelines) published in the 
Federal Register on April 11, 1988 (53 FR 11970), and revised in the 
Federal Register on June 9, 1994 (59 FR 29908) and on September 30, 
1997 (62 FR 51118). A notice listing all currently certified 
laboratories is published in the Federal Register during the first week 
of each month. If any laboratory's certification is suspended or 
revoked, the laboratory will be omitted from subsequent lists until 
such time as it is restored to full certification under the Mandatory 
Guidelines.
    If any laboratory has withdrawn from HHS' National Laboratory 
Certification Program (NLCP) during the past month, it will be listed 
at the end, and will be omitted from the monthly listing thereafter.
    This notice is also available on the Internet at http://workplace.samhsa.gov and http://www.drugfreeworkplace.gov.


FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mrs. Giselle Hersh or Dr. Walter Vogl, 
Division of Workplace Programs, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockwall 2, Room 
815, Rockville, Maryland 20857; 301-443-6014 (voice), 301-443-3031 
(fax).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Mandatory Guidelines were developed in 
accordance with Executive Order 12564 and section 503 of Pub. L. 100-
71. Subpart C of the Guidelines, ``Certification of Laboratories 
Engaged in Urine Drug Testing for Federal Agencies,'' sets strict 
standards that laboratories must meet in order to conduct urine drug 
testing for Federal agencies. To become certified, an applicant 
laboratory must undergo three rounds of performance testing plus an on-
site inspection.
    To maintain that certification, a laboratory must participate in a 
quarterly performance testing program plus periodic, on-site 
inspections.
    Laboratories which claim to be in the applicant stage of 
certification are not to be considered as meeting the minimum 
requirements expressed in the HHS Mandatory Guidelines. A laboratory 
must have its letter of certification from HHS/SAMHSA (formerly: HHS/
NIDA) which attests that it has met minimum standards.
    In accordance with Subpart C of the Mandatory Guidelines, the 
following laboratories meet the minimum standards set forth in the 
Mandatory Guidelines:

    \*\ The Standards Council of Canada (SCC) voted to end its 
Laboratory Accreditation Program for Substance Abuse (LAPSA) 
effective May 12, 1998. Laboratories certified through that program 
were accredited to conduct forensic urine drug testing as required 
by U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations. As of that 
date, the certification of those accredited Canadian laboratories 
will continue under DOT authority. The responsibility for conducting 
quarterly performance testing plus periodic on-site inspection of 
those LAPSA-accredited laboratories was transferred to the U.S. HHS, 
with the HHS' NLCP contractor continuing to have an active role in 
the performance testing and laboratory inspection processes. Other 
Canadian laboratories wishing to be considered for the NLCP may 
apply directly to the NLCP contractor just as U.S. laboratories do.
    Upon finding a Canadian laboratory to be qualified, HHS will 
recommend that DOT certify the laboratory (Federal Register, July 
16, 1996) as meeting the minimum standards of the Mandatory 
Guidelines published in the Federal Register on June 9, 1994 (59 FR 
29908) and on September 30, 1997 (62 FR 51118). After receiving DOT 
certification, the laboratory will be included in the monthly list 
of HHS certified laboratories and participate in the NLCP 
certification maintenance program.
