Directs that the penalty for a positive test result is suspension for one-half of the season of play for the first violation, one full season of play for the second violation, and permanent suspension for a third violation. Requires disclosure to the public of the name of any athlete that tests positive. Provides for an opportunity for a prompt hearing and an appeal before an arbiter.
