No. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s (FMCSA) Clearinghouse is a database that contains information pertaining to violations of DOT controlled substance and alcohol testing under 49 CFR part 382 for holders of commercial driver’s licenses (CDLs). The Clearinghouse does not apply to an FAA-regulated employee that performs safety-sensitive functions listed under 14 CFR part 120.
If you are an FAA-regulated employer, you are only obligated to enter a violation into the Clearinghouse if your employee holds a CDL to operate a motor vehicle and you conduct testing under 49 CFR part 382. If you do not employ an individual that meets these criteria, you are prohibited from entering information into the Clearinghouse. For questions about or assistance with the Clearinghouse, please contact the FMCSA at FMCSAdrugandalcohol@dot.gov or 202-366-2904.
In accordance with 49 CFR § 40.25, you must request the drug and alcohol testing information from a motor carrier if you are hiring an individual to perform aviation-related functions and the individual previously performed covered duties for a motor carrier. You are prohibited from querying the Clearinghouse to obtain drug and alcohol information, and the motor carrier is obligated under § 40.25(h) to immediately release the requested information to you after reviewing the written release. According to the FMCSA's frequently asked question, the motor carrier is prohibited from referring you to the Clearinghouse to obtain the information.

No. Because the FAA and U.S. Military are not considered employers, as defined in 14 CFR § 120.7, the requirement to conduct a drug and alcohol records check described in 49 CFR § 40.25 would not apply if the applicant who previously worked for the FAA or the U.S. Military.
If you wish to request the testing records for a former FAA employee, you may send your request to the FAA’s Internal Substance Abuse Program (ISAP) by faxing your written release to 202-267-3262. If you have questions, please contact the ISAP Office directly at 202-267-0238.

Applicable Regulations:
FAA’s drug and alcohol testing regulation, 14 CFR part 120, requires an aviation employer to document their program in accordance with 14 CFR §§ 120.117 and 120.225, based on the type of operation:
- An Operations Specification paragraph (A449) would apply to a part 121 or 135 operator, or a repair station that elects to conduct its own testing.
- A Letter of Authorization (LOA) paragraph (A049) would apply to an air tour operator as defined in 14 CFR § 91.147.
- The FAA Drug and Alcohol Testing Program Registration is applicable to an air traffic control facility not operated by the FAA/U.S. Military, or a contractor that elects to conduct its own testing.
The program document gives the employer or contractor the authority to conduct federal testing of its employees and certifies the employer’s compliance with the federal drug and alcohol testing rules outlined in part 120 and 49 CFR part 40. When an employer hires you to manage its random drug and alcohol testing program, you are obligated under 49 CFR § 40.347(b)(2) to ensure that only employees covered by a DOT agency regulated drug and alcohol testing program are included in the random testing pool.
The easiest way for you to verify the aviation employees you add to the random testing pool are covered is to request and obtain a copy of the aviation employer’s program documentation (A449, A049, or registration). Another option is to contact the FAA’s Drug Abatement Division at (202) 267-8442 or drugabatement@faa.gov. Failure to verify employees are covered under a DOT agency regulation is a violation of 49 CFR § 40.347(b)(2) and may trigger a Public Interest Exclusion (PIE) in accordance with 49 CFR § 40.365(b)(14).
If you have any further questions or need additional guidance that is more specific to your situation, please contact the FAA’s Drug Abatement Division at (202) 267-8442 or drugabatement@faa.gov.

Applicable Regulations:
If you are operating under a part 145 certificate and elect to conduct your own federal testing to perform safety-sensitive functions for an employer (including a part 121 or 135 or 91.147 operator), you must obtain an Operations Specification paragraph (A449) by contacting your FAA Principal Maintenance Inspector (PMI). You must provide the PMI the following information that is outlined in 14 CFR §§ 120.117(d) and 120.225(d):
- Company name,
- Certificate number,
- Telephone Number,
- Address where your drug and alcohol testing records are kept, and
- Whether you have 50 or more safety-sensitive employees, or 49 or fewer safety-sensitive employees.
You must certify in your A449 that you will comply with 14 CFR part 120 and 49 CFR part 40. Once your A449 is active, you must implement your testing program prior to your employees performing any safety-sensitive functions, directly or by contract (including subcontract at any tier) for a 14 CFR part 121 or 135 or § 91.147 operator.
Your A449 serves as your certification and authorization to conduct federal drug and alcohol testing under 14 CFR part 120. Although some repair station companies are authorized for a specific rating, this limitation does not affect the A449 or the repair station’s ability to conduct their own federal drug and alcohol testing program.
While we allow a repair station to obtain a program registration, that option is limited to an individual or corporation that owns and operates multiple repair station certificates or facilities throughout the territories of the United States and conducts testing under one program. For example, a corporation owns and operates six different repair station certificates throughout Texas and wants to conduct a single drug and alcohol testing program. The corporation would obtain a registration that covers all six of its repair station certificates and employees. If you are a repair station that operates under a single certificate and in multiple states, you are not eligible to register the program and you would conduct testing under your A449.
If you have any further questions or need additional guidance that is more specific to your situation, please contact the FAA Drug Abatement Division at (202) 267-8442 or drugabatement@faa.gov.

Applicable Regulations:
In addition to performing regular audits of your collection sites and personnel, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with your Evidential Breath Testing (EBT) device's Quality Assurance Plan (QAP). You should also ensure that your Breath Alcohol Technician (BAT) is familiar with the QAP and the requirements for proper use and care of the EBT devices.
According to the Department of Transportation's (DOT's) procedural regulation, 49 CFR Part 40, § 40.233, the employer or BAT must:
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions for conducting external calibration checks at the intervals specified.
- Only use calibration devices appearing on the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration's conforming product list for "Calibrating Units for Breath Alcohol Tests" when conducting external calibration checks. If a dry gas solution is used, it is important that the BAT is aware of the expiration date and ensures that a backup unexpired gas tank is on site.
- Remove an EBT from service when it fails an external check of calibration. It cannot be returned to service until it is repaired and passes an external calibration check.
- Ensure that all maintenance is performed as instructed in the operating manual and in the QAP.
- Keep a log of all accuracy checks, calibrations, and maintenance, and ensure that all maintenance is performed at the proper time listed and by the proper person. A suggested calibration/accuracy check log is available on our website for use. It is critical to ensure that these processes are appropriately documented.
- Maintain the records of the inspection, maintenance and calibration of the EBT for 2 years.
According to 49 CFR § 40.267, a confirmed test result of 0.02 or above must be cancelled if the next external calibration check of the EBT produces a result that differs by more than the tolerance stated in the QAP from the known value of the test standard. In this case, every result of 0.02 or above obtained on the EBT since the last valid external calibration check is cancelled. Because this is considered a "fatal flaw", it cannot be corrected.
Finally, you and your BAT should know the difference between an external calibration check (i.e., accuracy check/verification check) and a calibration. An external calibration or accuracy check ensures the proper calibration of a device. These accuracy checks must be conducted as often as is referenced in the device's QAP, and it is good practice to do an accuracy check as soon as possible after a positive test. When a device is calibrated, it is reset and changes the way the device measures alcohol. Remember that some QAPs require that users are certified by the device's operator. Calibrating a device, instead of conducting an accuracy check/verification check after a confirmed result of 0.04 or above, is a fatal flaw.

Applicable Regulations:
No. No form of in-flight notification may be used to notify pilots and flight attendants of random testing. According to the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA's) drug and alcohol testing regulation (14 CFR part 120), an employer shall require that random testing is unannounced and each safety-sensitive employee who is notified of selection for random drug testing is to proceed to the collection site immediately. The opportunity to report for testing immediately does not exist while in-flight; therefore, the use of in-flight notification is considered advance notification and is not permitted under our regulation.
Additionally, the FAA stated in the preamble to the January 12, 2004 final rule (69 Federal Register, page 1848) that "such advance notification is inherently unfair because pilots and flight attendants are only two of the eight categories of safety-sensitive employees. In other words, six categories of employees are not accessible by ACARS advance notification. In addition to the unfairness issue, ACARS advance notification has been linked, through enforcement cases, to dilutions, substitutions, and adulterations. ACARS notification could provide the employee with an opportunity to consume large quantities of fluid immediately before the test, which may dilute the specimen. Also, ACARS notification could provide the employee with an opportunity to substitute a specimen or to obtain access to adulterants to subvert the testing process."

14 CFR § 120.217(c)(8)
Preamble to the January 12, 2004, Final Rule
Applicants for medical certification must be able to see the colors they need to perform airman duties safely. Aviation Medical Examiners (AMEs) check color vision by using special color plates. If you can’t pass the initial color vision test but otherwise meet medical standards, we may issue you a medical certificate with the limit “NOT VALID FOR NIGHT FLIGHT OR BY COLOR SIGNAL CONTROL.”
If you have a medical certificate bearing a color vision limitation, you may request reevaluation by writing to:
Aerospace Medical Certification Division, AAM-300
Federal Aviation Administration
Civil Aerospace Medical Institute
P.O. Box 25082
Oklahoma City, OK 73125
The AME will ask you to demonstrate your ability to perform tasks that require color vision by giving you a signal light test. The Aerospace Medical Certification Division will consider the results of the test in reevaluating you.
No. The DOT drug and alcohol testing regulation (49 CFR Part 40) applies to transportation employers who are regulated by federal agencies such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). The FAA's regulation (14 CFR part 120) defines specific drug and alcohol testing requirements for the aviation industry. Therefore, an individual's participation in a DoD testing program, or that of any other Federal agency, would not satisfy the FAA's drug and alcohol testing requirements.
If you have any further questions or need additional guidance that is more specific to your situation, please contact the FAA Drug Abatement Division at (202) 267-8442 or drugabatement@faa.gov.

Applicable Regulations:
The FAA does not maintain a list of acceptable medications. Pilot performance is affected by both the underlying medical condition(s) and medication (s); we must consider both in individual cases.
You should consult with your FAA Regional Flight Surgeon or designated Aviation Medical Examiner (AME) to determine if your condition or treatment precludes flying. You can find contact information for your Regional Flight Surgeon or your AME on our website.
You may not fly if you are taking any of these types of medications. If you aren't sure whether your medication falls into one of these categories, you should check with your AME:
- Tranquilizers, such as but not limited to Valium, Librium, Ativan
- Most antidepressants. PLEASE NOTE: According to new FAA policy announced in the Federal Register on April 5, 2010, some conditions and medications are acceptable. Please see the Federal Register Announcement for the requirements to qualify for a special issuance authorization (waiver).
- Opiates, such as Morphine, Codeine, Lortab, Percodan, Oxycontin
- Muscle relaxants, such as Soma, Sonata, Flexeril
- Anicholinergics, such as Levsin, Bnetyl, Transderm Scop
- Sedating antihistamines, such as Benadryl, Chlorpheniramine, Zyrtec
- Antipsychotics, such as Mellaril, Thorazine, Haldol
- Over-the-counter active dietary supplements, such as Kava-Kava, Valerian
You can also find helpful information in our brochure "Medication and Flying".
No. The Department of Transportation's (DOT's) procedural regulation, 49 CFR part 40, § 40.25(b), states that the prospective employer must request records from the individual's previous DOT-regulated employers who have employed the individual within the two years before the application or transfer date. This requirement did not change.
The 'aviation' suggested form changes Section II-A of the Department of Transportation's (DOT's) form to say 'While employed' versus 'In the two years prior to the date of the employee's signature (in Section I), for DOT-regulated testing'. This small change clarifies that the 'two-year' period does not apply to the date of the actual information or the date the employee signed the release. Consequently, the previous employer may respond with information that dates beyond two years. The DOT's procedural regulation, 49 CFR part 40, does not limit a previous employer from releasing more than the previous two years of records regarding an employee's positive drug test results or alcohol violations.
Although an employer is not required to use the DOT or FAA suggested forms, we believe it is a best practice to eliminate the language "In the two years prior..." from the form. Otherwise, an employer may risk getting a "No" response although the employee may actually have a previous drug or alcohol violation.

Applicable Regulation:
No. The FAA no longer reviews or approves drug and alcohol testing programs for employers or C/TPAs. Employers certify their compliance when they sign the drug and alcohol testing paragraph (A449) in their Operations Specifications or when they register their program with the FAA Drug Abatement Division. C/TPAs do not submit documentation to the FAA. Consequently, an employer's or C/TPA's claim that it is "FAA-approved" is no longer valid.

As an employer, you are responsible for ensuring that the urine and/or oral fluid collector, screening test technician (STT), and/or breath alcohol technician (BAT) you use meet the qualifications outlined in 49 CFR §§ 40.15, 40.33, 40.35, and 40.213 to conduct drug and alcohol test collections. While a collector, STT, and/or BAT may provide you with a certificate of training to demonstrate that he or she is qualified, that may not be sufficient if it does not include the proficiency requirements. We encourage you to ask for additional documentation to ensure you and your collection personnel are complying with the federal testing requirements. The following are examples of what you might ask your collector, STT and/or BAT to provide to demonstrate they meet the proficiency requirements:
- For a collector, you may obtain copies of the following:
- Federal Custody and Control Forms (CCFs) completed during the five (5) mock error-free collections to demonstrate the collector conducted two (2) uneventful collections, one (1) insufficient quantity collection, one (1) temperature out of range collection, and one (1) collection involving a donor's refusal to sign or initial the specimen bottle seal.
- Documentation indicating that the five (5) mock collections were monitored by a qualified collector with one (1) year practical experience as a collector, or one (1) year experience training other collectors, or successful completion of a "train the trainer" course.
- Written statement from the person who observed the mock collections and can attest that they were error-free and monitored in person or "real-time". The statement should include the number and type of scenarios/events covered during the mock exercises and other relevant information.
- For an STT and/or BAT, you may obtain copies of the following:
- Alcohol Testing Forms completed during the seven (7) consecutive error-free mock breath alcohol tests or five (5) error-free saliva tests. The mock tests must be performed using the alcohol testing devices that will be used by the BAT/STT and adequately gauge the BAT/STT's knowledge, skill and ability pertaining to the device's messages, commands or displays including error messages or device malfunctions, as well as the procedures for performing air blank and external calibration checks.
- Documentation indicating that the seven (7) mock breath alcohol tests (and/or five (5) mock saliva tests) were monitored by a qualified instructor with one (1) year practical experience performing as a BAT/STT, or one year as a BAT/STT trainer, or successful completion of "train the trainer" course.
- Written statement from the person who observed the mock collections and can attest that they were error-free and monitored in person or "real-time". The statement should include the number and type of scenarios/events covered during the mock exercises and other relevant information.
- Other documents, which may include course materials and descriptions, checklists, etc.
For more information on this topic, please visit the DOT’s website and review the Q&As about the collector and BAT/STT requirements.

According to the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Procedural regulation, Title 49 CFR part 40, §§ 40.13(g), 40.41(a), and 40.227(a), an employer is prohibited from using the Federal custody and control form (CCF) and DOT alcohol testing form (ATF) for a non-DOT test. If you discover that you or your collector used a Federal CCF or DOT ATF on a non-DOT test for a non-covered employee and you want it changed, you may contact the FAA’s Drug Abatement Division for guidance.
However, if the error concerns a test on a safety-sensitive employee, you are prohibited from cancelling the test in accordance with 49 CFR §§ 40.209(b)(10) and 40.275(b) and must contact our office to request a change. We will conduct a case-by-case determination regarding errors that affect a safety-sensitive employee’s test regardless of the result and provide a written decision and instructions.
To request guidance or change on a DOT drug or alcohol test result to a non-DOT result, you must write to drugabatement@faa.gov and provide the following:
- A statement to explain whether it was an error on a non-covered employee, or you made a regulatory error by incorrectly testing a safety-sensitive employee for drugs and/or alcohol; and
- A copy of the result.
Please note that a service agent cannot make a request on your behalf.

The FAA’s federal drug and alcohol testing regulation is outlined in 14 CFR part 120 and applies to the following persons:
- All air carriers and operators certificated under 14 CFR part 119 and authorized to conduct operations under part 121 or part 135 of 14 CFR; all air traffic control facilities not operated by the FAA or by or under contract to the U.S. military; and all operators as defined in 14 CFR § 91.147.
- All individuals who perform, either directly or by contract, a safety-sensitive function listed 14 CFR §§ 120.105 and 120.215.
- All part 145 certificate holders who perform safety-sensitive functions and elect to implement a drug and alcohol testing program under part 120.
- All contractors who perform safety-sensitive functions and elect to implement a drug and alcohol testing program under part 120.
The steps to establish your program depend on your type of operation. According to 14 CFR §§ 120.117 and 120.225:
- A part 121 or 135 operator, or a part 145 repair station that elects to conduct its own testing must obtain an Operations Specification paragraph (A449) by contacting its FAA Principal Operations or Maintenance Inspector.
- An air tour operator as defined in 14 CFR § 91.147 must register its program by contacting the local Flight Standards District Office (FSDO) and requesting a Letter of Authorization (LOA). The FSDO will issue an Operations Specification paragraph (A049) as the LOA. A part 121 or 135 operator that intends to begin operations as an air tour operator must advise the FAA Drug Abatement Division.
- An air traffic control facility not operated by the FAA or by or under contract to the U.S. Military, or a contractor that elects to conduct its own testing must register its program with the FAA’s Drug Abatement Division.
Once you establish your program, you must implement the testing program prior to the date you start operations as a part 121 or 135, air tour operator, or air traffic control facility, or prior to performing safety-sensitive duties by contract (including subcontract at any tier) for a part 121 or 135 or 91.147 employer. You must ensure that your testing program meets all the requirements under 14 CFR part 120 and 49 CFR part 40. For program guidance, including Drug Abatement’s Advisory Circular (AC 120-126), and helpful resources, you should visit the FAA’s industry drug and alcohol testing website and the Department of Transportation’s website. If you hire a service agent (defined in 49 CFR § 40.3 as a consortium/third party administrator (C/TPA), collector, breath alcohol technician and screening test technician, medical review officer, and substance abuse professional) to assist you in implementing or managing your program, you must ensure the service agent is qualified (where applicable) and compliant with the federal regulations. As the employer, you are responsible for all actions of your officials, representatives, and service agency in carrying out the requirements of 14 CFR part 120 and 49 CFR part 40.

You can find information to locate a medical examiner in your area on our website.
To facilitate your inspection, it is important that your Designated Employer Representative (DER) can describe and discuss your company’s federal testing program and provide the documentation requested by the FAA’s drug and alcohol compliance and enforcement inspector. The FAA’s drug and alcohol testing program inspection process and authority is described in Drug and Alcohol Compliance and Enforcement Surveillance Handbook Order 9120.1. We encourage you to review the Order prior to your inspection to understand how the process works and contact the inspector assigned to your company if you have any questions. To start the process of an announced inspection, the FAA’s Drug Abatement Division will send you a Letter of Notification, Point of Contact (POC) form, and a list of documents to make available for inspection. Our inspection guide, available in Order 9120.1 and on our Sample Forms and Policies webpage, will describe the questions we ask and records we review. To facilitate our inspection, we request that you return the POC form with your contact information and the information about your service agents (e.g., Medical Review Officer, collection personnel, Substance Abuse Professional, and Consortium/Third Party Administrator). If our inspection will include a review or visit with your service agent (including your Medical Review Officer, collection facility, Substance Abuse Professional, and Consortium/Third Party Administrator), the inspection lead will let you know. We appreciate your assistance in facilitating our visit(s).
In accordance with 49 CFR § 40.331, you and your service agent must release all written, printed, and computer-based records and reports, files, materials, data, documents/documentation, agreements, contracts, policies, and statements related to your drug and alcohol program. During our inspection, our inspector may also need to review some of the following types of records:
- Employment records for each safety-sensitive employee (e.g., records of hire, transfer or termination, and applications or resumes)
- Documentation of your safety-sensitive positions (e.g., position descriptions)
- Documentation of an employee’s performance of a safety-sensitive function (e.g., flight logs, duty records, timesheets, work orders, invoices, receipts, and other maintenance records)
At the conclusion of our inspection, we will conduct an outbriefing and advise you of the result of our inspection. If your inspection results in no findings, we will conclude our inspection and send you a formal closeout letter. If we discover any issues that indicate a deviation from 14 CFR part 120 or 49 CFR part 40, we will send you a Report of Inspection (ROI). The ROI will give you an opportunity to provide a detailed description of your corrective actions to return to full compliance and avoid recurrence, as well as providing documentation of the actions you took. Although your timely and sufficient response is not required, it is critical to demonstrating your willingness and ability to comply under our Compliance Program (outlined in FAA Order 8000.373 and Order 2150.3).
As a best practice, we encourage you to use our inspection guide to conduct your own program audits, including your service agent(s), on an annual or bi-annual basis to ensure continued compliance with 14 CFR part 120 or 49 CFR part 40. If you find discrepancies in your program, we encourage you to consider submitting a voluntary disclosure report in accordance with Advisory Circular 120-117.
