NTSB Safety Recommendation — Aviation
Recommendation text
THE NTSB RECOMMENDS THAT THE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION: ESTABLISH PROCEDURES FOR RECEIVING, PROCESSING, AND ANALYZING TOXICOLOGICAL TEST RESULTS REPORTED BY THE STATES, INCLUDING THE DESIGNATION OF APPROPRIATE FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION (FAA) FIELD OFFICES (SUCH AS THE FLIGHT STANDARDS DISTRICT OFFICES OR OTHER APPROPRIATE FAA OFFICES) TO WHICH STATES ARE TO REPORT TOXICOLOGICAL TEST RESULTS AND REFUSALS TO SUBMIT TO TESTING, AND THE DESIGNATION OF ONE OFFICE WITHIN THE FAA TO WHICH THE FAA FIELD OFFICES TRANSFER THE TEST RESULTS FOR ANALYSIS.
In plain language (FlightFinder summary)
The FAA is asked to create procedures for receiving, processing, and analyzing toxicological test results reported by states. This includes designating specific FAA field offices, such as Flight Standards District Offices, for states to report test results and refusals to submit to testing, and designating a single FAA office to receive those results from field offices for analysis.
This plain-language summary is written by FlightFinder to explain the recommendation above. It is not the official wording — the verbatim NTSB text is quoted above.
