For the purpose of this policy and the Federal Regulations, the City of Onalaska will utilize a seven panel drug screen consisting of the following drugs: - Tetrhydrocannabinol (Marijuana drug) - Cocaine - Amphetamines - Opiates (including heroin) - Phencyclidine (PCP) - Barbiturates - Benzodiazepines Non-DOT Panel DOT Panel In instances where there is reason to believe an employee is abusing a substance other than the seven drugs listed above, the City reserves the right to test for additional drugs under the City’s own authority using standard laboratory testing protocol.

This procedure will include use of a split specimen testing procedure. Each urine specimen is subdivided into two bottles labeled as a “primary” and a “split” specimen. Both bottles will be sent to a certified lab. Only the “primary” specimen bottle is opened and used for the urinalysis. The split specimen bottle will remain sealed and is stored at the lab. If the analysis of the primary specimen confirms the presence of illegal, controlled substances, the employee has 72 hours to request the split specimen be retested at the same lab or be sent, at the employee’s expense, to another certified laboratory for analysis. An employee who fails to notify the Medical Review Officer (MRO) within 72 hours of receiving the results of the positive test of the employee’s desire to have the split specimen tested, shall be deemed to have waived their right to seek testing of the split specimen.

1. Marijuana (THC metabolite) 50 ng/ml 2. Cocaine 300 ng/ml 3. Amphetamines 1000 ng/ml 4. Opiates (including heroin) 300 ng/ml 5. Phencyclidine (PCP 25 ng/ml Each employee’s urine sample will be subdivided into two (2) bottles labeled as “primary” and “split” specimens. Only the primary specimen will be opened and used for urinalysis. The split specimen bottle will remain sealed and will be stored at the laboratory. If the analysis of the primary specimen shows the presence of an illegal controlled substance, the employee shall be notified by the Medical Review Officer (MRO), and will have seventy-two (72) hours to request that the split specimen be sent to another DHHS certified laboratory for analysis. If the drug screening test(s) indicate(s) the presence of one (1) or more of listed drugs, then a confirmation test will be performed for each identified drug using state- of-the-art gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis, at the following nanograms/milliliter screening levels:
1. Marijuana (THC metabolite) 15 ng/ml 2. Cocaine 150 ng/ml 3. Amphetamines/Methamphetamine 500 ng/ml 4. Opiates (including heroin) 300 ng/ml 5. Phencyclidine (PCP) 25 ng/ml
Testing for Controlled Substances. Employees may be required to submit to testing for controlled substances (including alcohol) when the College determines that it has a reasonable suspicion that the use of such substances affects the performance of the employee's contracted duties (including the duties conducted outside the classroom for which the employee may not receive additional compensation). The College will make a good-faith effort to notify the Association of any upcoming drug test actions. The College will use a certified drug testing facility that will follow standard professional testing guidelines. Any disciplinary action taken as a result of such tests will follow due process and will not violate any other contractual right(s). Termination as a result of this process will follow Article 9E. An employee whose performance for the College appears to be adversely affected by chemical dependency will be encouraged to seek rehabilitation. The College will make good-faith, reasonable efforts to provide training to management and supervisory staff regarding the drug and alcohol policy of the College and the provisions regarding testing.

Concentrations of controlled substances at or above the following levels shall be considered positive and confirmation test results as follows: Type of Drug or Metabolite Initial Test Confirmation Test Marijuana metabolites Xxxxx-0-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxx- 00 00 9-carboxylic acid (THC) Cocaine 300 150 metabolites (Benzoylecgoine) Phencyclidine (PCP) 25 25 Amphetamines 1000 Amphetamine 500 Methamphetamine 500 (Specimen must also contain amphetamine at a concentration of greater than or equal to 200 ng/mL. Opiate metabolites 2000 Codeine 2000 Morphine 2000 6-acetylmorphine (6-AM) 10 (Test for 6-AM in the specimen. Conduct this test only when specimen contains morphine at a concentration greater than or equal to 2000 ng/mL.) The drug screen panel is subject to modification as required by the Federal Regulations referenced above. Drug testing is conducted by analyzing an employee’s urine specimen (through a certified testing lab). This procedure includes the use of a split specimen testing procedure. Each urine specimen is subdivided into two bottles labeled as a "primary" and a "split" specimen. Both bottles will be sent to a certified lab. Only the "primary" specimen is opened and used for the urinalysis. The split specimen bottle will remain sealed and stored at the lab. If the analysis of the primary specimen confirms the presence of illegal, controlled substance, the employee has 72 hours to request the split specimen be retested at the same lab or b sent to another certified laboratory for analysis. An employee, who fails to notify the Medical Review Officer within 72 hours of receiving the results of the positive test of the employee’s desire to have the split specimen tested shall be deemed to have waived the employee’s right to seek testing of the split specimen.
