To ensure NCDOT subrecipient compliance with FTA mandated Drug and Alcohol Testing Program and the Drug -Free Workplace requirements, the NCDOT: • Periodically reviews each transit agency's Drug and Alcohol Program Policy for compliance; • Conduct on-site visits to review all aspects of each transit agency's Drug and Alcohol Program that cannot be accomplished via desktop audit, such as compliance with program management requirements, records maintenance and storage review, ensuring that all applicable Drug and Alcohol Program regulations are readily available, reviewing documentation of employee training, collector compliance with regulations, and reviewing any other program compliance requirements; • Provide technical assistance in all matters pertaining to transit agency Drug and Alcohol Program management as requested, or deemed to be appropriate; • Provide employee/supervisor training, such as "Reasonable Suspicion Referral for Supervisors" and other program related training as available required; • Monitor transit agency Drug and Alcohol program management activities via accessing and reviewing the 3rd Party Administrator (TPA) Website; • Monitor collection sites for compliance with FTA Drug and Alcohol Testing Program requirements; • Coordinate efforts that would eventually allow individual transit agencies to review their Drug and Alcohol Testing Program activities via accessing the current TPA website; • Collect, compile, and review all data necessary to validate each transit agency's Drug and Alcohol Management Information System (DAMIS) Report. Each transit agency prepares this report electronically. The NCDOT reviews each report and then electronically forwards the data to FTA prior to March 15 of each year.
