*The Standards Council of Canada (SCC)

voted to end its Laboratory Accreditation

Program for Substance Abuse (LAPSA)

effective May 12, 1998. Laboratories certified

through that program were accredited to

conduct forensic urine drug testing as

required by U.S. Department of

Transportation (DOT) regulations. As of that

date, the certification of those accredited

Canadian laboratories will continue under

DOT authority. The responsibility for

conducting quarterly performance testing

plus periodic on-site inspections of those

LAPSA-accredited laboratories was

transferred to the U.S. DHHS, with the

DHHS’ National Laboratory Certification

Program (NLCP) contractor continuing to

have an active role in the performance testing

and laboratory inspection processes. Other

Canadian laboratories wishing to be

considered for the NLCP may apply directly

to the NLCP contractor just as U.S.

laboratories do. Upon finding a Canadian

laboratory to be qualified, the DHHS will

recommend that DOT certify the laboratory

(Federal Register, 16 July 1996) as meeting

the minimum standards of the ‘‘Mandatory

Guidelines for Workplace Drug Testing’’ (59

Federal Register, 9 June 1994, Pages 29908–

29931). After receiving the DOT certification,

the laboratory will be included in the

monthly list of DHHS certified laboratories

and participate in the NLCP certification

maintenance program.
