FISCAL NOTE, 79TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
February 18, 2005

TO:
Honorable Joe Driver, Chair, House Committee on Law Enforcement
 
FROM:
John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB807 by Driver (Relating to reporting positive alcohol and drug tests of holders of commercial driver's licenses.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Transportation Code relating to the reporting of positive alcohol and drug tests of holders of commercial driver's licenses.  Under current law, the requirement that employers report positive drug test results to the Department of Public Safety is codified in Section 643.064, Transportation Code.  The bill would move that section to Transportation Code, Section 644.252.  The Department of Public Safety reports that there would not be any additional responsibilities for recordkeeping.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
