United Press International
WASHINGTON — The Trans
portation Department proposed
Wednesday the first federal ban on
alcohol and drug use by railroad
crews, expanding authority to test
the workers but requiring leniency
for those who seek treatment.
Spokesmen for the railroads and
rail unions gave qualified support to
the proposed rules, announced by
Transportation Secretary Elizabeth
Dole at a Senate Commerce subcom
mittee meeting.
Unions, however, expressed fear
of harassment in the testing process
and railroads had a mixed reaction
to the mandate of leniency for work
ers who voluntarily seek treatment
Senate panel
ends loophole
United Press International
WASHINGTON — A Senate
panel Wednesday closed a loophole
in federal highway fund allocations,
which could mean an additional
$64.5 million for Texas beginning
Oct. 1, Sen. Lloyd Bentsen said.
The Senate Environment and
Public Works Committee also passed
Bentsen’s amendment encouraging
states to plant wildflowers rather
than grass alongside highways.
Police beat
The following incidents were re
ported to the University Police De
partment through Tuesday.
MISDEMEANOR THEFT:
• Two rear hubcaps and part of
the trim were stolen from a 1978
Mercury parked in front of the Me
morial Student Center.
for drug or alcohol problems.
Dole, who has been working with
the industry and the unions for
months to work out the regulations,
said she hopes to make the rules fi
nal in September after hearings are
held.
Use of alcohol and drugs has been
outlawed by railroads for more than
a century. Recent accidents and sur
veys, however, show it is a greater
problem for railroads than for any
other form of transportation except
the private automobile.
The proposed rules would:
• Prohibit on-the-job use of alco
hol or drugs by railroad employees.
An employee is considered “im
paired” if blood alcohol content is
quired to prove drunken automobile
driving.
• Require post-accident testing
for drugs and alcohol, and require
railroads to report all results to the
government.
• Require pre-employment drug
screening.
• Require railroads to maintain
employment for any employee who
admits an alcohol problem and vol
unteers for treatment. Co-workers
also could turn in fellow employees
with drinking or drug problems, and
there could be no discipline if the ac
cused worker volunteers for evalua
tion and treatment.
