Congressional Mandate
US Congress directed Secretary of State and Secretary
of Transportation to request the governments of ICAO
Member States establish international standards for
alcohol and controlled substances testing for persons
that perform safety-sensitive maintenance functions on
commercial air carrier aircraft.
To gather information for this rulemaking, APIs Senior
Representatives reached out to aviation authorities in the
affected countries, and Department Of State sent out a
cable asking posts to provide FAAs request for
information to host governments.
