Current List of HHS-Certified
Laboratories and Instrumented Initial
Testing Facilities Which Meet Minimum
Standards To Engage in Urine Drug
Testing for Federal Agencies
Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration, HHS.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) notifies federal
agencies of the laboratories and
Instrumented Initial Testing Facilities
(IITF) currently certified to meet the
standards of the Mandatory Guidelines
for Federal Workplace Drug Testing
Programs (Mandatory Guidelines). The
Mandatory Guidelines were first
published in the Federal Register on
April 11, 1988 (53 FR 11970), and
subsequently revised in the Federal
Register on June 9, 1994 (59 FR 29908);
September 30, 1997 (62 FR 51118);
April 13, 2004 (69 FR 19644); November
25, 2008 (73 FR 71858); December 10,
2008 (73 FR 75122); and on April 30,
2010 (75 FR 22809).
A notice listing all currently HHScertified laboratories and IITFs is
published in the Federal Register
during the first week of each month. If
any laboratory or IITF certification is
suspended or revoked, the laboratory or
IITF will be omitted from subsequent
lists until such time as it is restored to
full certification under the Mandatory
Guidelines.
If any laboratory or IITF has
withdrawn from the HHS National
Laboratory Certification Program (NLCP)
during the past month, it will be listed
at the end and will be omitted from the
monthly listing thereafter.

Jkt 241001
Order 12564 and section 503 of Public
Law 100–71. The ‘‘Mandatory
Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug
Testing Programs,’’ as amended in the
revisions listed above, requires strict
standards that laboratories and IITFs
must meet in order to conduct drug and
specimen validity tests on urine
specimens for federal agencies.
To become certified, an applicant
laboratory or IITF must undergo three
rounds of performance testing plus an
on-site inspection. To maintain that
certification, a laboratory or IITF must
participate in a quarterly performance
testing program plus undergo periodic,
on-site inspections.
Laboratories and IITFs in the
applicant stage of certification are not to
be considered as meeting the minimum
requirements described in the HHS
Mandatory Guidelines. A HHS-certified
laboratory or IITF must have its letter of
certification from HHS/SAMHSA
(formerly: HHS/NIDA), which attests
that it has met minimum standards.
In accordance with the Mandatory
Guidelines dated November 25, 2008
(73 FR 71858), the following HHScertified laboratories and IITFs meet the
minimum standards to conduct drug
and specimen validity tests on urine
specimens:

A notice listing all currently HHS-certified laboratories and IITFs
is published in the Federal Register during the first week of each
month. If any laboratory or IITF certification is suspended or revoked,
the laboratory or IITF will be omitted from subsequent lists until such
time as it is restored to full certification under the Mandatory
