Tests shall be by urine screening and shall consist of two procedures, a screen test (EMIT or equivalent) and if that is positive, a confirmation test (GC/MS). c. The initial test of all urine specimens will use immunoassay techniques. All specimens identified as positive in the initial screen must be confirmed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) technique that identifies at least three (3) ions. In order to be considered “positive” for reporting by the laboratory to the City, both samples must be tested separately in separate batches and must also show positive results on the GC/MS confirmatory test. d. In the event of a positive drug or alcohol test, the testing laboratory will perform an automatic confirmation test on the original specimen at no cost to the Covered Employee.

Laboratory. A laboratory course is one in which the contact hours per week do not equal the semester hours credit for the course. A laboratory experience involves preparation on the part of the instructor and/or laboratory assistant which organizes laboratory accouterments in such a way that demonstrations, experiments, etc., have predictable outcomes. The laboratory experience takes place in a controlled environment with dependence on the student’s motor involvement in the learning experience. Instruction generally takes place on a one-to-one basis between the student and the instructor at the laboratory station. Laboratory experiences may be scheduled for a class or be open to a student to work at his own pace under supervision. The ratio of credit hours to contact hours in a laboratory course varies but is usually more than one (1) contact hour per credit hour. Commonly denoted with an “L” designator.
