USCG ONLY – Contact Patrick Mannion Patrick.J.Mannion@uscg.mil regarding MIS submissions for CY 2023
Overview
Employers subject to DOT or USCG drug and alcohol testing regulations must submit their annual drug and alcohol testing data as required by their respective DOT Agency or the USCG. The annual drug and alcohol testing data being submitted for a specific calendar year is to be submitted by March 15th of the following calendar year.
- Example: If you are required to submit drug and alcohol testing data for the calendar year of 2023, then you must submit your data by March 15, 2024.
When submitting their drug and alcohol testing data, employers are to use the following Drug and Alcohol Testing MIS Data Collection Form and instructions.
FAA, FMCSA, FRA, and FTA now permit (and prefer) employers to submit the required drug and alcohol testing data via the internet. PHMSA requires that you submit the required data electronically.
If you submit the data via the internet, you are not required to submit a hardcopy. It is recommended employers have a copy of their data available (either hard copy or in electronic format) in the event an auditor or inspector requests a copy.
What's new with the DOT's Drug and Alcohol Management Information System (MIS)?
- DOT-regulated employers required to submit annual drug/alcohol testing data will need to through Login.gov to access the DOT's MIS and to input and submit their drug/alcohol testing data.
What is Login.gov?
- Login.gov is a secure sign in service used by the public to access participating government agencies' systems, including MIS. Login.gov requires the user to set up at least one authentication method to secure their account.
Is there a charge/fee to the user for using Login.gov?
- No.
