Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: As a result of the Hollings-Danforth provisions of the Department of Transportation's FY 1992 appropriations bill, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) now has the statutory authority to mandate a nationwide drug and alcohol testing program for the transit industry. This paper discusses the requirements of this program, FTA's participation in rulemakings on alcohol and drugs, the results of two surveys designed to gather information on substance abuse policies and programs as well as drug and alcohol usage patterns in the transit industry, and several technical assistance packages developed by FTA to assist transit authorities in implementing alcohol and drug testing programs.
