Each year, a minimum percentage of covered pipeline employees must be randomly tested for illegal drugs. The percentage, either 50 percent or 25 percent, depends on the positive rate of random testing reported to RSPA in the previous year. In accordance with applicable standards, we have determined that the positive rate of random testing reported this year for testing in calendar year 1999 was less than 1.0 percent. Therefore, in calendar year 2001, the minimum annual percentage rate for random drug testing is 25 percent of covered employees.
