HHS/SAMHSA RIN: 0930-AA33 Publication ID: Spring 2023 
Title: Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug Testing Programs--Hair 
Abstract:

This action proposes to establish update the scientific and technical guidelines for the inclusion of hair specimens in the Mandatory Guidelines for Federal Workplace Drug Testing Programs and standards for certification of laboratories engaged in drug testing for federal agencies. SAMHSA has chosen to reissue these Guidelines as proposed rather than as final to seek further public comment on unresolved scientific issues related to external contamination and forensic hair testing for drugs, and on changes to align the HMG with the proposed final urine mandatory guidelines (UrMG) and oral fluid mandatory guidelines (OFMG).
