Programs for Chemical Drug and Alcohol Testing of Commercial Vessel Personnel; Delay of Implementation Dates

Résumé

The Coast Guard is delaying the effective date of regulations governing drug testing, insofar as those regulations would require testing of persons onboard U.S. vessels in waters that are subject to the jurisdiction of a foreign government. Under this final rule, the Coast Guard continues to delay the effective date for foreign implementation until January 2, 1997, to allow completion of a permanent change to the regulations affecting foreign implementation of its drug testing rules.
