Abstract:These updated guidelines are intended to help transit employers develop their own drug and alcohol testing programs that comply with regulations of the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). These regulations were first published in the Federal Register on February 15, 1994, as “Prevention of Prohibited Drug Use in Transit Operations” (49 CFR Part 653) and “Prevention of Alcohol Misuse in Transit Operations” (49 CFR Part 654) and later revised and combined into one regulation (49 CFR Part 655) on August 1, 2001. These guidelines are directed to transit employers receiving federal funding under sections 5307, 5309, 5311, and 5339 of the Federal Transit Act and section 103(e)(4) of Title 23 of the US Code. In addition, these guidelines will assist state agencies that receive FTA funding and contractors who perform safety-sensitive services for transit employers. These guidelines are intended to provide transit employers with the knowledge and resources needed to develop, implement, and manage a drug and alcohol testing program that complies with FTA and US Department of Transportation rules. These guidelines explain the various elements of a compliant program and contain examples of documents, checklists, and forms that may be used by individual transit employers to implement their own programs.
