Addendum to alcohol and drug testing policy 1/9/1996

The board of selectmen hereby amend the alcohol and drug testing policy by adding the following underlined clauses to paragraph V, section A.2:

An accident is defined as an incident involving a commercial motor vehicle in which there is either a fatality, an injury treated away from the scene, a vehicle being required to be towed from the scene, or property damage. Test will be conducted after accidents on drivers in town vehicles in an accident where a citation for a moving violation was given the driver, and for all fatal accidents even if the driver is not cited for a moving traffic violation, and for any accident resulting in property damage. Alcohol tests should be conducted within 2 hours, but in no case more than 8 hours after the accident. Employees must refrain from all alcohol use until the test is complete. Post-accident drug tests must be conducted within 32 hours.
