SUMMARY
OF FITNESS FOR DUTY PROGRAM ACTIVITIES FOR JANUARY THROUGH JUNE 2003 POSITIVE RESULTS:
Ten drug and alcohol tests yielded positive results for nine individuals during this reporting period. These ten tests detected a total of eleven specific substances.
PRE-ACCESS:
Five short-term contract personnel tested positive for illegal drugs during pre-access testing. Four tested positive for marijuana and one tested positive for marijuana and amphetamine, resulting in six illegal substances as reported on the enclosed Breakdown of Confirmed Positive Tests for Specific Substances. Two of the five individuals provided urine samples that were out of range for temperature. Subsequent urine samples were collected under direct observation (DO) and resulted in positive results of the DO specimens. The original specimens were subsequently tested and reported by the laboratory and Medical Review Officer (MRO) to be negative. All five individuals were denied access in accordance with the Cooper Nuclear Station (CNS) fitness for duty procedures.
RANDOM:
There were no positive results to report during this period.
FOLLOW-UP:
One individual in the follow-up program tested positive for alcohol during a follow-up test. The individual was denied access in accordance with CNS fitness for duty procedures.
FOR-CAUSE/POST ACCIDENT:
Five for-cause/post accident tests were performed during this reporting period with no positive results.
- Four personnel were tested following vehicle accidents on company property.
- One employee was tested after receiving a shock from a lighting fixture.
