alcohol specimen collection sites. Representatives of the company's TPA shall be considered employer representatives for this purpose. All such persons who have been authorized access must remain under the supervision of a collector/STT/BAT at all times when permitted into the collection site; and, except for the observer/monitor in the case of an observed/monitored collection, no one is permitted to enter the restroom (including a multi -stall restroom) while the employee provides the specimen. Drug testing: Failure of the specimen donor to remain at the collection site or to provide an adequate specimen within 3 hours of the first unsuccessful attempt will be considered a "refusal to submit to testing" (See B-8, and 40.191(a)). The collection site person shall have successfully completed training to carry out this function in accordance with 49 CFR 40.33 and shall complete the specimen collection services in accordance with the DOT Urine Specimen Collection Procedures Guidelines available from DOT ODAPC W62- 300, 1200 New Jersey Avenue SE, Washington DC 20590; FAX: 202-366-3897 e-mail ODAPCWebMailCtD-dot.gov website: hftp://www.dot.gov/ost/dapc/ Dilute specimens When a pre -employment test is verified by the MRO as negative and dilute, the specimen donor will be required to submit to a second specimen collection. A second specimen collection will not be required if the specimen verified as dilute was for any other purpose, unless the specimen donor failed to report for testing in a timely manner, or the specimen collection was otherwise compromised (e.g., a "directly observed" specimen collection was required, but not conducted) as determined by the DER. Any such (second) specimen (1) becomes the test of record and (2) will not be collected under direct observation (unless there is another basis for use of direct observation [see 40.67(a)(b) & (c)]. A third specimen collection is only permitted when required by the MRO. (See 40.197) Direct observation. 40.67 specifies when and how a directly observed collection is to be conducted. In general, employees will be permitted to give a urine specimen in privacy and without being observed by collection site personnel. An employee forfeits this right if there is reason to believe that s/he may alter or substitute a specimen. In the event that an observed collection is required, the observer will be an individual of the same gender as the employee. The employer must {40.67(b)} require a direct observation specimen collection if the drug test is return -to -duty or a follow-up test. Note: In a directly observed specimen collection the employee is required {40.67(i)) to "raise his or her shirt, blouse, or dress/skirt, as appropriate, above the waist gust above the navel}, and lower clothing and underpants {to mid -thigh) to show ... by turning around" that they do not have prosthetic devices for beating the tests {see 40.191 re refusal to test). Alcohol testing: The specimen shall be collected only by a Breath Alcohol Technician (BAT), or Screening Test Technician (STT) trained to proficiency in the operation of the DOT -approved evidential breath testing (EBT) or alcohol screening device (ASD) used for the test. A positive initial test must be confirmed by EBT. Testing must conform to 49 CFR 40, subparts J, K, L, M, & N. Additional information about specimen collection procedures can be found in Appendix C of this policy, in 49 CFR 40, or on the ODAPC website above. b. initial, confirmation, and split testing Alcohol: For an initial alcohol test, the Company may test the employee using either a DOT - approved saliva testing device or non -evidentiary breath testing device (i.e., alcohol screening device or ASD), or evidential breath testing (EBT) device. An initial alcohol test with result of 0.02 or greater will be followed by a confirmation test using an EBT. A post -accident alcohol test conducted by a federal, state or local law enforcement officer will utilize whatever specimens and testing devices that have been approved for such use by the relevant authority. Drugs: Initial laboratory tests utilize an immunoassay screen to eliminate "negative" urine specimens from further consideration. Specimens also undergo validity testing for adulterants, 2020 Drug Screens Plus. All Rights Reserved. (15) FMCSA 20200101 266
