123, Pages 35961-35975)
Amendment to drug and alcohol testing procedures for collectors,
laboratories, medical review officers, and employers regarding
adulterated, substituted, diluted, and invalid urine specimen results.
These changes are intended to create consistency with specimen validity
requirements established by the U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services and to clarify and integrate some measures taken in two of our
own Interim Final Rules. This Final Rule makes specimen validity testing
mandatory within the regulated transportation industries. |
