A collection site is defined in 49 CFR 40.3 as a place selected by the employer where employees present themselves to provide a specimen for a drug test.
Under 49 CFR 40.42, a DOT urine collection may take place in a medical facility, a mobile facility such as a van, a dedicated collection facility or any other location that meets the section's requirements. The operator of the site must have the personnel, materials, equipment, facilities and supervision needed to collect, temporarily store and ship urine specimens to a laboratory.
The rule describes two types of restroom facilities. The preferred type is a single-toilet room with a full-length privacy door. The other is a multistall restroom with substantial visual privacy. The MyDrugTesting.com directory lists collection sites and other providers that can be searched by location and service.
