Revision: March 19, 2015, Resolution 2015-04

Revision: April 28, 2022, Resolution 2022-10

CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES SAMPLING AND TESTING POLICY

PURPOSE: To establish standards and procedures that will be used to implement the controlled

substances sampling and testing program, which is aimed at enforcing the Colville Indian

Housing Authority’s zero tolerance policy toward the use of illegal controlled substances in units

that it owns and manages.

SCOPE: This policy shall apply to all use of the controlled substances sampling and testing

program by the Colville Indian Housing Authority and/or within any units owned or managed by

the Colville Indian Housing Authority.

AUTHORITY: The Colville Indian Housing Authority has been designated as the “Tribally

Designated Housing Entity” for the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, as that term

is defined at Section 4(21) of the Native American Assistance and Self-Determination Act of

1996, P.L. 104-330 (25 U.S.C. 4101-4212), as amended (NAHASDA).

A.

General Information.

1.

The controlled substances sampling and testing program relies upon state-of-theart technology developed to detect the residue of possession, manufacture, and/or

use of illegal controlled substances in residences and commercial buildings.

2.

The program operates by having certified persons take swab samples from

specified surfaces in a dwelling, and then testing those swab samples for the

presence of illegal controlled substances.

3.

The Colville Indian Housing Authority has obtained the controlled substances

equipment and program (Smiths Detection IMS Ionscan Equipment), and its staff

has been trained in its use.

4.

The Colville Indian Housing Authority has reviewed the research and

information regarding the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan technology and has

determined that this controlled substances sampling and testing program is

highly reliable as a means of testing for illegal controlled substances. The

Smiths Detection IMS ionscan technology false positive rate, for example, is less

than 1%.

5.

It is the intention of this policy to define the scope of the operation and policies

of the controlled substances sampling and testing program.

1.

Only certified Colville Indian Housing Authority staff will be authorized to

maintain and operate the controlled substances sampling and testing equipment.

The retailer of the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment provides training and

certification on use of the equipment, and those who have received such training

and certification are also authorized to train and certify other staff. The Colville

Indian Housing Authority shall ensure that at all times there is at least one staff

member trained and certified in the use of Smiths Detection IMS ionscan

equipment.

2.

The controlled substances testing equipment and program will be

operated according to training and certification only. The Smiths Detection

IMS ionscan Equipment will not be used for anything other than its designed

intended purpose according to the manufacturer.

3.

The Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment will be stored and maintained by the

certified operator at the Colville Indian Housing Authority Office. It will be stored

in a secure safe location with access allowed only by the certified operator and the

Executive Director. All daily, weekly and monthly checks will be performed

by a certified operator.

4.

If the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment is to be loaned to an agency

outside the Colville Indian Housing Authority the certified user will be loaned as

well to operate the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment. Colville Indian

Housing Authority makes no warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or

validity of results from the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment.

5.

C.

a.

If the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment is loaned to another

agency, that agency will be billed for the use of the Smiths Detection IMS

ionscan equipment at a rate of $200 per day of use, along with the related

expenses involved in the loan of the certified user (vehicle, fuel, time, etc.).

b.

If the agency using the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment, damages

the equipment, that agency will be billed the cost of replacement or repair,

whichever is applicable.

Any use of the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment must first be

approved by the Colville Indian Housing Authority Executive Director.

Revision: April 28, 2022, Resolution 2022-10

2.

The testing performed with the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment

will be completed consistent with this policy and accordance to the directed

procedures.

3.

Use of Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment shall be conducted in the

following manner:

a.

Prior to use of the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment in any unit,

the certified user will verify the functionality of the device.

b.

At least one swab will be taken from the living room, dining room,

kitchen, laundry room, hallway(s), each bedroom, each bathroom and

storage shed(s). However, because the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan

equipment is designed to test invisible trace quantities, if the certified user

can see the material to be tested with the naked eye, the Smiths Detection

IMS ionscan equipment shall not be used to test that material. Instead,

the certified user will notify the Tribal Police to have them remove the

visible material, make a notation of the time and location, and have the

material tested by a lab.

c.

The swab will be taken from the areas with the highest rate of physical

contact (the decision to be made on site by the certified user).

d.

Each swab will be labeled with a number corresponding to an identified

location on the drug test worksheet. The drug test worksheet will be

labeled with the date, time, unit number and the identity of the person

performing the test.

e.

The person taking the swab shall keep the swab in his or her possession

until the swab storage packet is returned to the compliance office testing

area so that the test can be performed. .

f.

Each swab will then be tested as soon as practical and the results recorded

on the current drug testing worksheet, with the date, time, and location of

the sampling recorded along with the name or initials of the persons

performing the sampling and testing.

g.

The ionscan operator must complete a successful verification prior to

processing any sample swabs. If the verification is not successful, the

process must be repeated until a successful verification is obtained. The

successful verification swab ID number must be recorded on the drug test

worksheet in the “Verific”space provided.

h.

The swabs, the related test results (including the plasmagram and other test

data stored by the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment accessible via

the IMS software), and the related documentation regarding time, date, and

location will be stored under lock and key by the person performing the

sampling and testing.

i.

Access to the swabs and test results shall be restricted to authorized staff

and only accessed when necessary. There will be a log for the storage of

these swabs and test results, requiring any person who accesses them to

sign for them.

j.

If a positive detection is received more testing will be conducted in the

area in which the positive detection was received.

k.

If called upon by an outside entity the swabs will be taken in the targeted

area requested by that agency.

4.

All samples and compliance inspection test results used in or generated by the

Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment and program, whether positive or

negative, will be documented and maintained in a locked, fireproof cabinet for a

period not less than one calendar year from the date of the test performed. Test

samples used for “Baseline Testing” will be destroyed once a “Baseline” has been

established. If any litigation is instituted with regard to a unit that has been

tested, the samples and test results will be maintained for at least as long as the

litigation is still in process and until the end of any applicable period for appeal of

a decision. The samples and test results will be disposed of according to

protocols for the disposal of hazardous or medical waste.

5.

Illegal controlled substances detection samples will be taken and tested from all

vacant dwelling units under the management of the Colville Indian Housing

Authority under the following protocol in order to establish that upon move in the

unit tested negative for controlled substances residue in certain specific locations:

a.

Vacant units will be tested just prior to move in by a new tenant or

homebuyer to establish a “Baseline” for the unit.

b.

At least one swab will be taken from the living room, dining room,

kitchen, laundry room, hallway(s), each bedroom, each bathroom,

storage shed(s), and garages. The certified user will identify specific test

points for the unit, based on the likelihood of high contact with such areas.

c.

Cleaning and testing of each specified area will continue until each

specified area records the lowest possible result for the presence of

controlled substances.

d.

A record of the specific areas tested, the test results (including the

plasmagram and other test data stored by the Smiths Detection IMS

ionscan equipment accessible via the IMS software), and the date of the

Revision: March 19, 2015, Resolution 2015-04

Revision: April 28, 2022, Resolution 2022-10

test results will be maintained by the Colville Indian Housing Authority in

a safe, secure location, separate from the new tenant/homebuyer file for

the unit. This record shall be referred to as the “baseline test results” for

that unit.

6.

The Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment and program will be used to conduct

sampling and testing of an occupied unit if and when the Colville Indian Housing

Authority has received reports or information regarding drug use in a home. The

Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment and program can also be used to

conduct sampling and testing in a home during any scheduled inspections

performed by the Colville Indian Housing Authority.

7.

If a baseline test result has been established for that unit, the same specified areas

represented in those results will be tested. If the new test indicates the presence of

controlled substances at higher than the established baseline level, this will be

deemed evidence that illegal controlled substances have been used, possessed,

and/or manufactured in the unit, and the Colville Indian Housing Authority will

take appropriate action, up to and including termination of the lease, homebuyer

agreement, or other agreement under which the occupant possesses the unit.

8.

A positive test for an occupied unit indicating a change above the baseline test

results will be documented, photographed and forwarded to law enforcement.

9.

Controlled substances sampling and tests may also be performed in units at the

request of the tenant or homebuyer, but only upon the authorization of the

Executive Director. Requests will be made in writing by the authorized tenant

to the Colville Indian Housing Authority and will articulate the reason for

the request. Any positive detection received during a tenant requested procedure

will not be used toward the tenant in negative matter if the home was not tested

during vacancy and the results do not indicate an increase over the existing

baseline test results for that unit. Every effort will be made by the tenant to clean

the home and ask for subsequent tests.

10.

All lease, homebuyer, and other agreements for Colville Indian Housing Authority

owned or managed units shall contain a provision or an addendum that authorizes

the Colville Indian Housing Authority to conduct controlled substances sampling

and testing of a unit when carrying out a visit or inspection that is authorized

under the agreement.

11.

The Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment and program can be called upon

by Law Enforcement or first responder personnel, including child protective

services.

a.

Colville Indian Housing Authority may authorize the use of the Smiths

Detection IMS ionscan equipment and program for such purposes only if

official personnel from the relevant agency represents in writing and/or

provides documentary proof that they have the necessary legal authorization

to enter the home to conduct such tests and believe the presence of controlled

substances exists and the need for documented detection is necessary.

b.

Colville Indian Housing Authority has no responsibility for assuring that

Law Enforcement or other first responders have the proper authorization

once the relevant agency represents in writing and/or provides documentary

proof to the Colville Indian Housing Authority by official personnel that

they do have the necessary legal authorization.

c.

Colville Indian Housing Authority does not, by its assistance, represent or

warrant that Law Enforcement or first responders do in fact have the

necessary legal authorization, but rather may rely upon the written

representation of such official personnel that the necessary authorization

has been obtained.

12. If there are any questions regarding the legality of any testing, sampling, or other use

of the controlled substances sampling and testing program, the Executive Director, at

his or her discretion, shall submit such questions to Colville Indian Housing Authority

legal counsel.

D.

E.

Use as Evidence

1.

The swabs and test results may be used as evidence in an eviction action in Tribal

Court or in an internal grievance with the Colville Indian Housing Authority, or in

any other legal action involving the Colville Indian Housing Authority where such

evidence would be relevant. The swabs shall be maintained in the possession of the

Colville Indian Housing Authority at all times, unless admitted and accepted as

evidence by the Tribal Court.

2.

It is critical that Colville Indian Housing Authority staff follow the necessary

procedures to ensure chain of custody for the swabs and the results.

3.

Any testimony needed with regard to the use of the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan

equipment should be delivered, to the extent possible, by the certified

operator who conducted the sampling and testing in accordance with training and

this policy and procedure. However, in certain instances, the person who conducted the

sampling and testing might not be available when a hearing is held. It is imperative,

therefore, that clear and accurate records be kept of all testing and sampling so that

they can be relied upon and presented as evidence by an authorized custodian of

Colville Indian Housing Authority records.

4.

Any technical testimony regarding the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment

or program, where practical, should be delivered by a technical level employee or

designee of Smiths Detection.

Revision: April 28, 2022, Resolution 2022-10

Unit

F.

1.

The Colville Indian Housing Authority, after having considered the available studies

and data, hereby makes the determination that there are concerns that residual

methamphetamine generated during the manufacturing process or during use of the

drug may pose a threat to human health, and render the property ‘Unsafe for Human

Use’ until decontamination has occurred.

2.

Until there is more definitive information on the health risks associated with

methamphetamine residue, the Colville Indian Housing Authority has determined

that the most prudent policy would be to require that the residents of any dwelling

unit that tests positive on the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment for

methamphetamine vacate that unit and that the unit be decontaminated of such

residue (i.e., to the point where the Smiths Detection IMS ionscan equipment

does not detect any residue) prior to be allowed to move back in.

3.

Upon obtaining a positive test result from a dwelling unit, Colville Indian Housing

Authority staff will notify the Executive Director, who will have a notice issued to

the residents informing them that they must vacate the unit and that the unit must be

decontaminated. A copy of the sample notice to be used is attached. Staff will also

post a notice on the door of the unit indicating that it is unsafe for human habitation

until decontamination is completed. Notice shall be on 8 ½x11 red cardstock

prominently displayed at main entrance to unit, signed by Executive Director.

4.

A resident whose dwelling unit has tested positive with the Smiths Detection IMS

ionscan equipment will be requested to sign a consent to have his or her personal

property tested before being allowed to bring such personal property to another unit

managed and/or owned by the Colville Indian Housing Authority. A consent form is

attached. If the property tests positive for methamphetamine residue, or if the

resident refuses to consent to such testing, the resident will be required to remove

such personal property from the unit. The CIHA staff member conducting the swab

test will determine what property will be tested. A refusal to consent form is

attached. If a resident refuses to consent to the test but refuses to sign the refusal

form, the Colville Indian Housing Authority staff shall make a written note of such

refusal and place it in the resident’s file.

5.

The residents will bear the cost of such decontamination if the positive test was

performed after an established baseline was previously established for the unit. In

such cases, Colville Indian Housing Authority may bring an action in Tribal Court to

seek removal of the resident(s) if they refuse to vacate, as well as to seek eviction

and compensation for the costs of cleanup.

Move-out Procedures

1.

After a tenant vacates a unit, a standard drug swab test will be performed to

determine that the unit is safe for the maintenance department to begin repairs.

G.

2.

The move-out swab test swabs will be returned to the compliance office for testing

prior to maintenance beginning any work in the unit to determine that the unit is safe

for the maintenance department to be present in the unit.

3.

If the unit tests positive for methamphetamine residue, the unit will be

decontaminated before maintenance will be allowed into the unit to begin repairs.

Procedures for Decontamination

1.

Colville Indian Housing Authority staff will receive training in the proper methods

of decontamination for methamphetamine residue and other illegal drug residue.

Such training shall include learning the methods for effective decontamination as

well as the necessary steps to take to protect their own health and safety.

2.

Only Colville Indian Housing Authority staff who have received such training are

permitted to enter a unit after it has been tested positive with the Smiths Detection

IMS ionscan equipment.

3.

Colville Indian Housing Authority staff who has received such training must strictly

follow the procedures and protocols for decontamination and worker health and

safety that they learned in their training, including the use of equipment for the

protection of worker health and safety. Equipment will be provided by the Colville

Indian Housing Authority.

4.

In certain instances the Executive Director may make the determination that

decontamination should be conducted by an outside firm or entity specializing in

such work. Such decisions are at the sole discretion of the Executive Director.

5.

If a resident is evicted or otherwise vacates the unit after a positive test for

methamphetamine residue, but leaves personal property behind, the Colville Indian

Housing Authority will remove the personal property from the unit and dispose of it

in a manner deemed to minimize the risk of contamination, provided that the Colville

Indian Housing Authority will first attempt to contact the resident and give them an

opportunity to claim and remove the personal property.

6.

Following the requirements of this policy is necessary to protect the health and safety

of residents as well as staff. The failure of any staff person to strictly abide by the

terms and conditions of this policy will result in disciplinary action, up to and

including dismissal from employment.
