    Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services 
Administration (SAMHSA) will publish a list of information collection 
requests under OMB review, in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these documents, call

    Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug Testing Program and 
Associated Forms--Extension of OMB approval will be requested for the 
Federal Custody and Control Form for Federal agency and federally 
regulated drug testing programs which must comply with the HHS 
Mandatory Guidelines, for the application and inspection forms for the 
National Laboratory Certification Program (NLCP), and for the reporting 
and recordkeeping language in the Guidelines. The Federal Custody and 
Control Form is used by all Federal agencies and employers regulated by 
the Department of Transportation to document the collection and chain 
of custody of urine specimens at the collection site, for laboratories 
to report results, and for Medical Review Officers to make a 
determination. No changes are proposed to this form. Prior to an 
inspection, a laboratory is required to submit specific information 
regarding its laboratory procedures to allow inspectors to become 
familiar with a laboratory's procedures before arriving at the 
laboratory. The annual total burden estimates for the custody and 
control form, the NLCP application, the NLCP inspection checklist, and 
NLCP recordkeeping requirements is 1,517,935 hours, as shown below:
