Common use of Drug Testing Methodology Clause in Contracts

Drug Testing Methodology. 1. The testing or processing phase shall consist of a two- step procedure: a. initial screening test b. confirmation test 2. The urine sample is first tested using the initial drug screening procedure. An initial positive test result will not be considered conclusive; rather, it will be classified as "confirmation pending."

A specimen testing positive will undergo an additional confirmatory test. The confirmation procedure shall be technologically different and more sensitive than the initial screening test. 4. The drug screening tests selected shall be capable of identifying marijuana, cocaine and every major drug of abuse including heroin, amphetamines and barbiturates. Personnel utilized for testing will be qualified to collect urine samples, or adequately trained in collection procedures. 5. Concentrations of a drug at or about the following levels shall be considered a positive test result when using the initial immunoassay drug screening test: Initial Test Level (ng/ ml) Marijuana metabolite 100 Cocaine metabolite 300 Opiate metabolite 300* Phencyclidine 25 Amphetamines 1000 Barbiturates 300 *25ng/ml if immunoassay-specific for free morphine. Concentrations of a drug at or above the following levels shall be considered a positive test result when performing a confirmatory CG/MS test on a urine specimen that tested positive using a technologically different test than the initial screening method: Confirmatory Test Level Marijuana metabolite 15* Cocaine metabolite 150** Opiates: Morphine 300+ Codeine 300+ Phencyclidine ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 500 Methamphetamine 500 * Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol-9-carboxylic acid ** Benzoylecgonine + 25ng/ ml if immunoassay-specific for free morphine Barbiturates 300 6.
