[FRA Docket No. 2001-11213, Notice 2]
RIN 2130-AA81


Alcohol and Drug Testing: Determination of Minimum Random Testing 
Rates for 2002; Corrections

AGENCY: Federal Railroad Administration (FRA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice of determination; corrections.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: FRA published a document in the Federal Register of January 2, 
2002, setting the minimum random drug and alcohol testing rates for 
calendar year 2002. The testing rates are based on the rail industry's 
overall positive rate, which is determined using annual railroad drug 
and alcohol program data taken from FRA's Management Information 
System. Although the original notice correctly set the minimum random 
testing rates, the overall positive rates for drug testing and alcohol 
testing were inadvertently transposed. This document corrects the 
error.

DATES: This correction is effective January 2, 2002.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lamar Allen, Alcohol and Drug Program 
Manager, Office of Safety Enforcement, Mail Stop 25, FRA, 1120 Vermont 
Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20005 (Telephone: (202) 493-6313).

Corrections

    In the Federal Register issue of January 2, 2002, in FR Doc. 01-
32047, two sentences need correcting. On page 21, in the third column, 
correct the first sentence of the SUMMARY caption to read:
    Using data from Management Information System annual reports, FRA 
has determined that the calendar year 2000 rail industry random testing 
positive rate was .79 percent for drugs and .20 percent for alcohol.
    On page 22, correct the last sentence in the first column that runs 
over into the second column, in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION caption 
to read:
    In this notice, FRA announces that the minimum random drug testing 
rate will remain at 25 percent of covered railroad employees for the 
period January 1, 2002 through December 31, 2002, since the industry 
random drug testing positive rate for 2001 was .79 percent.
