Dear Major General Ryan:

This is in response to a request for an opinion made on your behalf by Captain Roy D. House concerning the "chemical abuse" testing of Arkansas Military Department state employees.

Please note that I have enclosed a copy of Opinion No. 90-186, recently issued by this office to you, as requested by Major Claudell Woods, which I believe satisfactorily answers your question.

The foregoing opinion, which I hereby approve, was prepared by Assistant Attorney General Elana L. Cunningham.

Sincerely,

RON FIELDS Attorney General
