That Have Withdrawn From the Program

AGENCY: Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, HHS

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Health and Human Services notifies Federal 
agencies of the laboratories currently certified to meet standards of 
Subpart C of Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug Testing 
Programs (59 FR 29916, 29925). A similar notice listing all currently 
certified laboratories will be published during the first week of each 
month, and updated to include laboratories which subsequently apply for 
and complete the certification process. If any listed laboratory's 
certification is totally suspended or revoked, the laboratory will be 
omitted from updated lists until such time as it is restored to full 
certification under the Guidelines.
    If any laboratory has withdrawn from the National Laboratory 
Certification Program during the past month, it will be identified as 
such at the end of the current list of certified laboratories, and will 
be omitted from the monthly listing thereafter.
    This Notice is now available on the internet at the following 
website: http://www.health.org

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mrs. Giselle Hersh or Dr. Walter Vogl, 
Division of Workplace Programs, Room 13A-54, 5600 Fishers Lane, 
Rockville, Maryland 20857; Tel.: (301) 443-6014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace 
Drug Testing were developed in accordance with Executive Order 12564 
and section 503 of Public Law 100-71. Subpart C of the Guidelines, 
``Certification of Laboratories Engaged in Urine Drug Testing for 
Federal Agencies,'' sets strict standards which laboratories must meet 
in order to conduct urine drug testing for Federal agencies. To become 
certified an applicant laboratory must undergo three rounds of 
performance testing plus an on-site inspection. To maintain that 
certification a laboratory must participate in a quarterly performance

[[Page 51876]]

testing program plus periodic, on-site inspections.
    Laboratories which claim to be in the applicant stage of 
certification are not to be considered as meeting the minimum 
requirements expressed in the HHS Guidelines. A laboratory must have 
its letter of certification from SAMHSA, HHS (formerly: HHS/NIDA) which 
attests that it has met minimum standards.
    In accordance with Subpart C of the Guidelines, the following 
laboratories meet the minimum standards set forth in the Guidelines:
