The WAA operates a low-cost non-profit anti-drug & alcohol consortium.

The program performs the required random drug/alcohol drawing for testing; allowing small companies to share the benefits of belonging to a larger consortium. Additional support is available to assist your company to be in DOT/FAA compliance.

If you have any questions or would like to know more about joining the Consortium, please contact program manager,  Jamelle Garcia at (253) 939-4273 or by email.

The employee must have no prior notice of his/her selection but is required to go immediately to the test site where the test will be administered.  If a Program Manager is selected, he/she will be notified by telephone and/or FAX and is required to go immediately to the test site where the test will be administered.
