The testing method will be an evidential breath test which shall provide an initial screening test, which will provide a result at the time and place of the test and shall provide an alcohol concentration reading. Where a positive result occurs on the initial screening, a confirmation test shall be conducted which will provide a printed record of the test number and test result. Two breath tests are required to determine if a person has a prohibited alcohol concentration. First a screening test is conducted. A result less than 0.02 alcohol concentration is considered a “negative test.” If the alcohol concentration is 0.02 or greater, a second confirmation test must be conducted. The confirmation test result will determine action to be taken.
