Using data from Management Information System annual reports,
FRA has determined that the 2000 rail industry random testing positive
rate was .20 percent for drugs and .79 percent for alcohol. Since the industry-wide random drug testing positive rate continues to be below 1.0 percent, the Federal Railroad Administrator (Administrator) has
determined that the minimum annual random drug testing rate for the period January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002 will remain at 25
percent of covered railroad employees. Since the random alcohol testing violation rate has remained below .5 percent for the last two
years, the Administrator has determined that the minimum random alcohol testing rate will remain at 10 percent of covered railroad employees for the period January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002.
This notice is effective January 2, 2002.
