Section 16:64-9.7 - Random testing

(a) The Pilots Association and the Independent Pilots Association shall maintain a program for the chemical drug testing of pilots and apprentices for dangerous drugs.

(b)The program shall include a random selection element so that every member of the population of pilots and apprentices has an equal chance of selection on a statistically valid basis. The testing frequency and selection process shall be such that the chance of selection continues to exist throughout a pilot's membership or an apprentice's employment. Therefore, pilots or apprentices randomly selected shall remain in the pool of persons subject to testing even after the individual has been tested.

(c)A random test may be required on any day which a pilot or apprentice is subject to being called on duty or is on duty. Notice of a pilot or apprentice's selection for testing shall be provided only so far in advance as is necessary to ensure the individual's presence at the time and place set for testing.

(d) The Pilots Association and the Independent Pilots Association shall ensure that, during each calendar year, pilots and apprentices are tested on a random basis at an annual rate of not less than 50 percent of the total number of pilots and apprentices in the pool.
