PART 40_PROCEDURES FOR TRANSPORTATION WORKPLACE DRUG AND ALCOHOL TESTING 
PROGRAMS--Table of Contents
 
 Subpart D_Collection Sites, Forms, Equipment and Supplies Used in DOT 
                            Urine Collections
 
Sec.  40.47  May employers use the CCF for non-Federal collections or 
non-Federal forms for DOT collections?

    (a) No, as an employer, you are prohibited from using the CCF for 
non-Federal urine collections. You are also prohibited from using non-
Federal forms for DOT urine collections. Doing either subjects you to 
enforcement action under DOT agency regulations.
    (b) (1) In the rare case where the collector, either by mistake or 
as the only means to conduct a test under difficult circumstances (e.g., 
post-accident or reasonable suspicion test with insufficient time to 
obtain the CCF), uses a non-Federal form for a DOT collection, the use 
of a non-Federal form does not present a reason for the laboratory to 
reject the specimen for testing or for an MRO to cancel the result.
    (2) The use of the non-Federal form is a ``correctable flaw.'' As an 
MRO, to correct the problem you must follow the procedures of Sec.  
40.205(b)(2).
