FAA Proposes $275,000 Civil Penalty Against Hallmark Aviation

Alleges Violations Of Drug And Alcohol Testing Requirements

The FAA has proposed a $275,000 civil penalty against Hallmark Aviation Services, Inc. of Los Angeles, CA for allegedly violating drug and alcohol testing regulations.

The FAA alleges the company, which ensures operators have effective security programs that comply with applicable Transportation Security Agency requirements, failed to ensure it had received verified negative drug tests for 57 employees prior to their hire for, or transfer into, safety-sensitive functions. The FAA further alleges that 14 employees who performed safety-sensitive duties were not in Hallmark’s random drug and alcohol testing pool for varying periods in 2013 and 2014.
 
Additionally, the FAA alleges that Hallmark Aviation in 2013 failed to conduct random alcohol tests on any employees who performed safety-sensitive functions. It was required to conduct such tests on at least 10 percent of those workers.
 
Hallmark Aviation has requested to meet with the FAA to discuss the case.
