Title: Control of Alcohol and Drug
Use in Railroad Operations: Addition of
Post-Accident Toxicological Testing for
Non-Controlled Substances.
OMB Control Number: 2130–0598.
Abstract: Since 1985, as part of its
accident investigation program, FRA has
conducted post-accident alcohol and
drug tests on railroad employees who
have been involved in serious train
accidents (50 FR 31508, Aug. 2, 1985).
If an accident meets FRA’s criteria for
post-accident testing (see 49 CFR
219.201), FRA conducts tests for alcohol
and for certain drugs classified as
controlled substances under the
Controlled Substances Act (CSA), Title
II of the Comprehensive Drug Abuse
Prevention Substances Act of 1970
(CSA, 21 U.S.C. 801 et seq.). Controlled
substances are drugs or chemicals that
are prohibited or strictly regulated
because of their potential for abuse or
addiction. The Drug Enforcement
Agency (DEA), which is primarily
responsible for enforcing the CSA,
oversees the classification of controlled
substances into five schedules.
Schedule I contains illicit drugs, such as
marijuana and heroin, which have no
legitimate medical use under Federal
law. Currently, FRA routinely conducts
post-accident tests for the following
drugs: marijuana, cocaine,
phencyclidine (PCP), and certain
opiates, amphetamines, barbiturates,
and benzodiazepines. Controlled
substances are drugs or chemicals that
are prohibited or strictly regulated
because of their potential for abuse or
addiction.
FRA research indicates that
prescription and OTC drug use has
become prevalent among railroad
employees. For this reason, FRA has
added certain non-controlled substances
to its routine post-accident testing
program, which currently routinely tests
only for alcohol and controlled
substances. At this time, FRA is adding
two types of non-controlled substances,
tramadol (a synthetic opioid) and
sedating antihistamines. Publication of
the PATT Final Rule, however, in no
way limits FRA’s post-accident testing
to the identified substances or in any
way restricts FRA’s ability to make
routine amendments to its standard

post-accident testing panel without
prior notice. Furthermore, in addition to
its standard post-accident testing panel,
FRA always has the ability to test for
‘‘other impairing substances specified
by FRA as necessary to the particular
accident investigation.’’ See 49 CFR
219.211(a). This flexibility is essential,
since it allows FRA to conduct postaccident tests for any substance (e.g.,
carbon monoxide) that its preliminary
investigation shows may have played a
role in an accident.
FRA uses the additional information
collected for research and accident
investigation purposes. The addition of
non-controlled substances to the postaccident testing panel helps inform FRA
about a broader range of potentially
impairing prescription and OTC drugs
that may be currently contributing to the
cause or severity of train accidents/
incidents. Research generated by these
data will inform future agency policy
decisions regarding these noncontrolled substances.
