Brothers,
Attached is a copy of the waivers from the AAR and ASLRRA filed jointly seeking a delay in the August 25, 2008 implementation date of amendments to Title 49 CFR § 40.67 which was issued by the Department of Transportation (DOT) on June 25, 2008 (73 FR 35961). Part 40 is incorporated by reference in § 219.701 of Title 49, CFR, Part 219, Control of Drug and Alcohol Use in Railroad Operations. As you are aware by my previous message of 08-08-08, this provision involved “direct observation” of drug tests in certain conditions. Please share this information with our members. It is also posted to our e-mail blogg at http://bletsre-mail.blogspot.com/.
Fraternally,
Gil Gore
