9 Tom Bray J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc. The Regulatory Background Thomas Bray Sr. Editor, Transportation Management J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc.

10 Tests Required by Part 382 Pre-employment (drug) BEFORE operating a CMV requiring a CDL Random (drug and/or alcohol) Post-accident (drug and alcohol) if conditions in are met Fatality Citation issued after injury or tow-away accident Reasonable suspicion Return-to-duty Follow-up Tom Bray J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc.

11 Drug Testing Procedure: Collection and Testing Driver provides urine sample at collection site Procedures detailed in Part 40 (Subparts C, D, and E) Urine sample tested at lab Procedures detailed in Subpart F of Part 40 Lab tests urine for 9 metabolites in 5 drug families Marijuana Cocaine Opiates Amphetamines (including Ecstasy and methamphetamines) Phencyclidine Tom Bray J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc.

12 Drug Testing Procedure: The Decision Medical review officer (MRO) reviews lab results and compares any findings to thresholds Thresholds for all nine metabolites specified in If over threshold, MRO contacts driver for an explanation MRO contacts carrier with verified results once process complete MRO procedures detailed in Subpart G to Part 40 Tom Bray J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc.

13 ONLY Urine at This Point DOT only recognizes urine testing for the DOT 5 at this time If you do additional testing (hair or a 10- panel ) it must be done separate from your DOT program Additional testing cannot be used to replace DOT testing Tom Bray J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc.

14 Hair Follicle Testing In the FAST Act, Congress authorized FMCSA to begin accepting hair follicle testing in place of urine testing Hair follicle tests could be used for: Pre-employment tests Random drug tests (only if hair testing was used for the driver s pre-employment test) Other tests would have to continue using urine Hair follicle provides a longer window, but not a detailed current snapshot and other tests are concerned with driver s condition at the time Tom Bray J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc.

15 Hair Follicle Testing HHS and DOT s ODAPC must write standards and procedures first Procedures: Where to get the hair and how much, and collection processes Process: How is the sample to be tested Thresholds: What will be tested for and what will the cut-offs be False positive issues and what could trigger them MROs: What will the MRO processes be Are there ways a driver could cheat? If so, processes need to be built to prevent cheating Dealing with collection and testing problems Tom Bray J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc.

DOT updates the accompanying regulations (Part 40) Once DOT has Part 40 updated, FMCSA can

16 Hair Follicle Testing Rulemaking process in detail Tom Bray J. J. Keller & HHS writes procedures and standards for testing Associates, Inc.

24 Impact of Hair Testing Tom Moore National Private Truck Council

25 Why Are More Companies Turning to Hair Testing? Hair testing is more effective than urine at identifying illegal drug users because it has a longer detection window. Hair tests are typically capable of detecting illegal drug use in the three months prior to the test. Urine tests are usually only capable of detecting use in the prior few days.

38 Hiring Standards No positive drug test accepted. Alcohol convictions greater than 10 years must be reviewed before consideration. Kris Kolbe, CTP Manager, Trans. Compliance, Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC. We feel that hair testing adds a level of risk reduction in the pre employment applicant. It also is a potential deterrent to current drivers knowing that hair testing is also performed on random tests.

39 Testing Specifics What happens when a driver is not able to produce the hair sample? PreEmp-Not permitted on our account until hair sample can be provided.
