General Consent for Limited Queries of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
(FMCSA) Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse
The Clearinghouse Rule:
The Clearinghouse rule requires FMCSA-regulated employers, medical review officers (MROs), substance abuse professionals (SAPs), consortia/third-party administrators (C/TPAs), and other service agents to report to the Clearinghouse information related to violations of the drug and alcohol regulations in 49 Code of Federal Regulations, Parts 40 and 382 by current and prospective employees.
• Employers are required to query the Clearinghouse for current and prospective employees' drug and alcohol violations before permitting those employees to operate a CMV on public roads.
• Employers are required to annually query the Clearinghouse for each driver they currently employ.
I hereby provide consent to Fletcher's Towing Inc (the company), to conduct a limited query of the FMCSA Commercial Driver’s License Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse (Clearinghouse) to determine whether drug or alcohol violation information about me exists in the Clearinghouse. This consent is for the duration of my employment and will remain in effect unless I am no longer employed. This consent will be used for an unlimited number of queries at the employer’s request. I understand that if the limited query conducted by the company indicates that drug or alcohol violation information about me exists in the Clearinghouse, FMCSA will not disclose that information to the company without first obtaining additional specific consent from me. I further understand that if I refuse to provide consent for the company to conduct a limited query of the Clearinghouse, the company MUST prohibit me from performing safety-sensitive functions, including driving a commercial motor vehicle, as required by FMCSA’s drug and alcohol program regulations.
