$51,651 Civil Penalty Proposed Against AAA Services
The Department of Transportation’s Federal Aviation Administration’s proposes a penalty of $51,651 against All American Aviation Services, LLC for FAA drug and alcohol testing regulation violations. All American allowed eight employees in sensitive positions without securing their drug and alcohol testing records, and failed to abide by follow-up testing procedures on two marijuana-positive testees.
One employee who tested positive was excluded from the random testing program, and one employee who failed a test failed to provide the return to duty test result.
The discrepancies came to light during a March 2013 inspection where the company’s antidrug and alcohol misuse prevention program was audited.
