Today, the Department of Transportation (DOT) published a Federal Register Notification regarding "The Do's and Don'ts for the Substance Abuse Professional and the Return-to-Duty Process in the U.S. DOT Drug and Alcohol Testing Program." This notification addresses several Substance Abuse Professional (SAP)/Return-to-Duty (RTD) issues the DOT has become aware of, to remind DOT-qualified SAPs to follow all RTD process procedures in Part 40, and to remind DOT-regulated employers of the SAP responsibilities and the RTD process. The Notification is available on the Federal Register's webpage at: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-03-04/pdf/2026-04337.pdf. We will post it on the ODAPC webpage at https://www.transportation.gov/odapc/frpubs.
