The regulatory changes would apply to DOT-regulated employers and their contractors (\"service agents\") who administer their DOT-regulated drug and alcohol testing programs. Currently, employers and their service agents must use, sign and store paper documents exclusively, unless the employer is utilizing a laboratory's electronic Federal Drug Testing Custody and Control Form (electronic CCF) system that has been approved by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). DOT is required by statute to amend its regulations to authorize, to the extent practicable, the use of electronic signatures or digital signatures executed to electronic forms instead of traditional handwritten signatures executed on paper forms. This rulemaking also responds to an April 2, 2020, petition for rulemaking from DISA Global Solutions, Inc. (DISA), requesting that DOT regulations be amended to allow the use of an electronic version of the alcohol testing form (ATF) for DOT-authorized alcohol testing. The proposed regulatory amendments are expected to provide additional flexibility and reduced costs for the industry while maintaining the integrity and confidentiality requirements of the drug and alcohol testing regulations. In addition, DOT proposes to amend the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) regulation for conformity and to make other miscellaneous technical changes and corrections.","document_number":"2024-23427","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2024/10/15/2024-23427/electronic-signatures-forms-and-storage-for-drug-and-alcohol-testing-records","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2024-10-15/pdf/2024-23427.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2024-23427.pdf?1728650733","publication_date":"2024-10-15","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION","name":"Transportation Department","id":492,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/transportation-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/492","parent_id":null,"slug":"transportation-department"},{"raw_name":"Office of the Secretary"},{"raw_name":"Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration","name":"Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration","id":408,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/pipeline-and-hazardous-materials-safety-administration","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/408","parent_id":492,"slug":"pipeline-and-hazardous-materials-safety-administration"}],"excerpts":"signing an <span class=\"match\">electronic</span> communication that: (a) identifies and authenticates a particular person as the source of the <span class=\"match\">electronic</span> communication; and (b) indicates such person's approval of the information contained in the <span class=\"match\">electronic</span> communication. \n Id. \n It also requires OMB to ensure Federal agencies provide for: (a) the option of maintaining, submitting; or disclosing information <span class=\"match\">electronically</span>, when practicable; and (b) the use and acceptance of <span class=\"match\">electronic</span> signatures when practicable.
