Opinion:
—Determination unanimously confirmed without costs and petition dismissed. Memorandum: The determination finding petitioner guilty of violating inmate rule 113.12 (7 NYCRR 270.2 [B] [14] [iii]) is supported by substantial evidence (see, Matter of Symmonds v Goord, 244 AD2d 737; Matter of Larocco v Coughlin, 181 AD2d 957). We reject petitioner's contentions concerning the testing that was done and the procedures that were followed.
