摘要：	The Department of Transportation's (DOTs) Operating Administration's Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, Federal Railroad Administration, Federal Transit Administration, Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration and United States Coast Guard have issued regulations requiring anti-drug programs in the aviation, highway, railroad, transit, pipeline, and maritime industries. The DOT Agencies' rules require that employers conduct drug testing according to provisions of 49 CFR Part 40, 'Procedures for Transportation Workplace Drug Testing Programs'. The procedures for collection of urine under these rules are very specific and must be followed whenever a DOT-required urine specimen collection is performed. (The only exception is the Federal Railroad Administration's Post-Accident Toxicological Testing Program in which a railroad representative will provide the collector specific instructions and a testing kit.) These procedures, including use of the Federal Drug Testing Custody and Control Form (CCF), apply only to DOT-required testing. While employers may use these collection and testing procedures for testing under employer or state authority, they must not use a Federal CCF nor can they imply that company tests are conducted using DOT authority. The collector has a major role in the success of the DOT's drug testing program. The collector is the one individual in the testing process with whom all employees have direct, face-to-face contact. Without the collector assuring the integrity of the specimen and collection process, the test itself may lose validity. Without the collector's sensitivity to an employee's privacy, the entire testing program may be subject to criticism. It is imperative that collectors fully understand and follow these procedures. These guidelines, together with 49 CFR Part 40 and the DOT operating administrations' rules, will provide collectors with the information needed in the performance of their collection duties. The information in this document addresses normal collection procedures and some of the more common problems or situations encountered. However, information contained in this publication should not be used to interpret the legal requirements of the actual rule. / Supplementary Notes: Supersedes PB2005-101206. / Availability Note: Also available on CD-ROM.
