from Control of Alcohol and Drug Use,

random alcohol and drug testing

FCRV states that four of its hours of
service employees are subject to random
testing at their other places of
employment. FCRV also says that it
normally operates trains on weekends
while the SWP normally operates on
weekdays, and that track warrants and/

should notify FRA, in writing, before
the end of the comment period and
specify the basis for their request.

proceedings should identify the
