 Recipients of FTA Funding (Grantees)  All Subrecipients and Covered Contractors  Any employer that is required to have a FTA Drug & Alcohol Testing Program

 – Reporting of Results  Prepare Annual Summary of Drug & Alcohol Testing Results  Submit to FTA, when requested  Responsible for Accuracy & Timeliness  Grantee responsible for Subrecipients & Covered Contractors

 Grantees  Receive Notification Letter – (Dec/Jan)  Username & Password – Access to DAMIS   Due Date = March 15 th  Instructions for Revising Subrecipient/Contractor List

 Allows Grantees to Enter Testing Results  Provides Subrecipients/Contractors Username & Passwords  Status .PDF of MIS Submission  DAMIS = Drug and Alcohol Management Information System

 If List is Not Current and Accurate  Need to Update  Contact:  FTA Hotline – (617)  FTA DAMIS  Grantee is responsible for subrecipients & contractors  Grantee distributes usernames and & passwords for subrecipients & contractors

 Usernames & Passwords – Change every calendar year  You can Revise your MIS Report – Up until database is closed (Sept/Oct)  Must ‘Sign & Submit’ Again  Grantee Must ‘Accept’  We do record date of original submission  You cannot access/print previous years MIS reports  Required to retain MIS - 5 Years

Q: Who can be the ‘Certifying Official’ A: Any company official – whoever can certify data as complete & accurate Q: How do I determine “Number of Safety- Sensitive Employees” (next slide)

 Example: (FTA random pool size at time of random selection): (800/4) = 200 is the “Number of Safety-Sensitive Employees” 200

Go To DAMIS (

Q: What if an employee works multiple safety- sensitive jobs (i.e. operator & dispatcher) A: Include in employee category in which they worked the most (Section II (B) & (C)) Does not mean all test results will be in that employee category.

A: Each individual submission is for the ‘Employer’ listed, only. (Employer Name) A2: You do not submit combined testing results for -the consortium -the random pool (includes FMCSA) - other employers (contractor/subrecipient/grantee) GOLDEN RULE : DO NOT DOUBLE-REPORT TESTING RESULTS TO DOT

Q: What if I have no safety-sensitive employees? Grantee or Subrecipient A:If you pass-through FTA funds – submit a “zeroed-out” report. Make sure your contractor/subrecipient does submit results. Q: What if we switched contractors mid-year? A: Submit an MIS for each contractor Report ‘calendar year’ results (all results) Request another account (for new contractor) if necessary

 Upon review – we find we made mistakes during the calendar year.  Report test results as they stand. EXAMPLES:  Return-to-Duty instead of Pre-Employment  Non-DOT Alcohol pre-employment  DOT Alcohol – not in policy  DOT/FTA Post-Accident – not meet thresholds  There is no place to provide a ‘Comment’ or indicate ‘time period’

 Don’t Provide C/TPA information.  Don’t submit all employers – especially contractors  Combine multiple employer data on a single report  Include Contractors in Grantee report

 (Veolia, First Transit, MV, Cummins, W.W. Williams, GoodYear….and more)  National Contractors must NOT send in a ‘Company- Wide’ report  Testing Results (MIS Report) - each FTA-Covered Employer (Contract)

 Has multiple contracts  Each contract uses different employees (contracts completely separate – no crossover)  Must submit two separate MIS reports  One for each contractor  NO DOUBLE-COUNTING

 If a contractor use the same safety-sensitive employees on contracts with multiple FTA- Grantees:  Can designate one contract as primary and one as secondary and just submit one MIS.  Contact FTA D&A Hotline

 What if our contracted employer/employees service more than one FTA Grantee?  Both Grantees ensure contractor submits MIS.  Q: Who reports the results?  A: Random results to the employer for whom the employee performs the greater % of service.  Other results (PA, R-T-D, FU & RS) dependent on for who service was being performed at the time of the event.

 Examples:  Negative dilute – policy to retest  Positive – request split specimen  MRO Cancels (Invalid) – requires retest  R-T-D – not done as observed – employee returned  Insufficient Specimen  Temperature out-of-range  Result requiring most stringent consequence is the test of record  1 Positive or Negative or Refusal or Cancelled for each testing event  Only report “Result”

 FTA funded vessels (Ferryboats)  Subject to FTA Random Alcohol Test requirements  Must Submit MIS to FTA  Only Random Alcohol Test Results  Employee Category = Ferryboat  Must Inform FTA of Ferryboat Service  Contact FTA D&A Project Office  Provide Capability to Enter Ferryboat alcohol test results

 Semi-Annual Lab Report?? – Not Usually!  Does not include ‘MRO verified’ results  May include cancellations that don’t get reported on MIS  May include results of all employer DOT tests  Employer may use multiple Labs  See previous slide – these results may be included  Lab Report – Appendix B (next slide)
