SB: Y, IC: Y, SLT: N Anticipated costs/benefits: This revision will allow operators who are currently required to have 2 separate drug and alcohol testing programs to consolidate these programs into one, which FAA believes will result in cost-savings due to a reduction in duplicate administrative and recordkeeping costs. In addition, for those operators currently combining their drug testing programs under an exemption, this rulemaking will eliminate the need to file an exemption request, resulting in additional reduction in paperwork burdens.
