West Virginia University Board of Governors Talent and Culture Rule 3.4 – Drug and Alcohol Testing for FTA and FMSCA Covered Positions has been revised and posted online today (Dec. 21) for public comment.
The proposed changes are to amend and approve the current BOG rule to comply with federal regulations that expanded the list of required drugs to be tested and to clarify and add certain drug-related prohibitions not addressed in the rule as originally adopted.
A summary of the proposed changes to the rule can be found on the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking website.
While revisions typically are posted online for public comment for 30 days, the University is extending the public comment period given the upcoming holiday break. The public comment period will begin today (Dec. 21) and remain open through Jan. 29. All public comments received or a summary thereof will be posted on WVU’s policy website.
The rule may be changed, subject to comments received. The comments, or summary thereof, will be posted for 10 days prior to the BOG taking final action.
The BOG rules under review can be found on the Rules, Policies, and Procedures website. Any member of the public can comment on the proposed rules.
