Laboratories
The first week of each month, the current list of DHHS
certified labs is published in the Federal Register under the heading
of Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA).
DOT-covered employers must contract with only these labs. It is
advisable to check the list monthly, because new labs are added,
and others are removed. The status of a laboratory can also be verified
by calling DHHS's telephone HELPLINE (800) 843-4971.

in developing supervisory training programs for DOT supervisors
in other modes. Review the rules for the mode that you are training,
and make whatever adjustments are appropriate. The section of the
training that deals with drugs and alcohol includes case studies,
and it can be used just as it is presented.)
