NOTICE: TO ALL APPLICANTS FOR EMPLOYMENT

As part of our selection and hiring process, our companies engage

in pre-employment drug testing of all gualified applicants foremployment as allowed by law. These tests are highlysophisticated and capable of detecting trace amounts of variouscontrolled substances and illegal drugi. lf you are currently usingillegal drugs, please do not waste your time and ours by applyingfor work here.

Due to the daily inherent dangers along with United States

Department of Transportation (UsDoT) regulation, our highvoltage construction profession requires a highly trained, supersafe, competent, and skilled work force with a high degree ofconcentration, training, job knowledge, skills, and abilities, and is a

critical job specialty. Therefore, this is a zero tolerance policy.

Test results which indicate the presence of illegal drugs in yourbody will negate further hiring consideration as allowed by law.

DOT OFFICE OF DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY AND COMPTIANCE NOTICE

oRecently, the Department of Justice (DOJ) issued guidelines for Federal prosecutors instates that have enacted laws authorizing the use of "medical marijuana.,,

We have had several inquiries about whether the DoJ advice to Federal prosecutorsregarding pursuing criminal cases will have an impact upon the Department ofTransportation's longstanding regulation about the use of marijuana by safety-sensitivetransportation employees - pilots, school bus drivers, truck drivers, train engineers,subway operators, aircraft maintenance personnel, transit fire-armed securitypersonnel, ship captains, and pipeline emergency response personnel, among others.

We want to make it perfectly clear that the DOJ guidllines will have no bearing on theDepartment of Transportation's regulated drug testing program. We will not changeour regulated drug testing program based upon these guidelines to Federal prosecutors.

The Department of Transportation's Drug and Alcohol Testing Regulation - 49 CFR part4o, at 40.151(e) - does not authorize "medical marijuana" under a state law to be avalid medical explanation for a transportation employee's positive drug test result.

That section states:

S 40.151 What are MROs prohibited from doing as part of the verification process?As an MRO, you are prohibited from doing the following as part of the verificaiion

process:(e) You must not veri$r a test negative based on information that a physician recommendedthat the employee use a drug listed in Schedule I of the Controlled Su6stances Act. (e.g.,under a state law that purports to authorize such recommendations, such as the ,,medifimarijuana" Iaws that some states have adopted.)

Therefore, Medical Review Officers will not verify a drug test as negative based uponinformation that a physician recommended that the employee use ,,medical

marijuana." Please note that marijuana remains a drug listed in Schedule I of theControlled Substances Act. lt remains unacceptable for any safety-sensitive employeesubject to drug testing under the Department of Transportation,s drug testingregulations to use marijuana.

We want to assure the traveling public that our transportation system is the safest it canpossibly be.
