SWGDRUG Supplemental Document

Hi all,

A new SWGDRUG Supplemental Document, “SD-8 – FOR PART IIIA – Methods of Analysis/Sampling Seized Drugs for Qualitative Analysis, Encountering Negative Results in a Statistical Sampling Plan”, has been posted to the SWGDRUG website for public comments and review. The document can be found under the Pending Documents tab, linked below, as well a link to the Public Comments page. This Public Comment Period will last 60 days and close on December 1, 2026. I encourage everyone to read through the document and provide any feedback you can. The Supplemental Document aims to address situations encountered when performing in Statistical Sampling that are increasingly common and provide additional options as opposed to completely abandoning the Statistical Sampling Plan.

            Document and Public Comments Link can be found here: https://www.swgdrug.org/pending.htm

I am looking forward to seeing y’all in Grand Junction at the end of the month!

Regards,

David Huang (DCHuang@uspis.gov)
