DOT/FAA RIN: 2120-AK01 Publication ID: Fall 2011 
Title: ●Combined Drug and Alcohol Testing Programs for Operators Conducting Commercial Air Tours (RRR) 
Abstract: This rulemaking would allow part 119 certificate holders with operations under part 121 or 135 who also conduct commercial air tour operations under 14 CFR part 91.147 to combine drug and alcohol testing programs. This rulemaking is necessary because it would allow certificate holders to implement one drug and alcohol testing program while conducting operations for what has been considered historically two separate employing entities. The intended effect is to decrease operating costs by eliminating the requirement for duplicate programs while ensuring the level of safety required by the current drug and alcohol testing regulations.
