Abstract

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, DOT/FRA proposes to establish a new system of records titled "DOT/FRA 133, Post- Accident Toxicological Testing Records (PATTR)." This system will maintain electronic records associated with toxicological testing conducted under 49 CFR part 219, subpart C. Records include required forms, laboratory test results, supporting documentation, and memoranda prepared by FRA staff evaluating whether alcohol or drug use may have been a factor in a qualifying railroad accident or incident.
