BILLING CODE 4160–20–P

* The Standards Council of Canada (SCC) voted
to end its Laboratory Accreditation Program for
Substance Abuse (LAPSA) effective May 12, 1998.
Laboratories certified through that program were
accredited to conduct forensic urine drug testing as
required by U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT) regulations. As of that date, the certification
of those accredited Canadian laboratories will
continue under DOT authority. The responsibility
for conducting quarterly performance testing plus
periodic on-site inspections of those LAPSAaccredited laboratories was transferred to the U.S.
HHS, with the HHS’ NLCP contractor continuing to
have an active role in the performance testing and
laboratory inspection processes. Other Canadian
laboratories wishing to be considered for the NLCP
may apply directly to the NLCP contractor just as
U.S. laboratories do.
Upon finding a Canadian laboratory to be
qualified, HHS will recommend that DOT certify
the laboratory (Federal Register, July 16, 1996) as
meeting the minimum standards of the Mandatory
Guidelines published in the Federal Register on
April 13, 2004 (69 FR 19644). After receiving DOT
certification, the laboratory will be included in the
monthly list of HHS-certified laboratories and
participate in the NLCP certification maintenance
program.

I. Abstract
We have contracted with the U.S.
Geological Survey (USGS) to conduct a
survey of national wildlife refuge
visitors so that we can better understand
their recreational, educational, and
information experiences. The Policy
Analysis and Science Assistance Branch

onsite at approximately 75 national
wildlife refuges nationwide.
Respondents will have the option to
return the survey by mail or to complete
it online.
We will use this survey to measure
visitor satisfaction with current visitor
services and facilities and their desire
for future services and facilities.
