HEPACO, INC.
NOTICE TO ALL APPLICANTS AND EMPLOYEES
DRUG TESTING

On January, 2000, HEPACO will begin implementing a new phase of its substance abuse policy.
This new phase will involve testing of applicants and employees (not covered by DOT) at all of
HEPACO’s projects. Testing may occur at the following times: applicant screening, fitness-for-duty,
reasonable cause, post-accident testing and random testing. It also supplements HEPACO’s existing
policies prohibiting the possession, use, sale, distribution or being under the influence or otherwise
affected by alcohol and illegal or unauthorized drugs on HEPACO’s premises or during working time
and hours.

Where HEPACO determines testing is necessary, employees will cooperate in the collection of
an appropriate specimen administered by qualified medical or laboratory personnel designated by
HEPACO, and in a drug test or alcohol test, as the case may be. Testing of the specimen will be
conducted by a company-approved biomedical testing laboratory with demonstrated expertise and
procedures to ensure proper handling and reporting of results. Every specimen which tests positive will
be subjected to confirmatory testing done in accordance with applicable laws. Every effort will be made
to ensure confidentiality.

Reference should be made to the Drug and Alcohol Abuse Policy that you have been provided
and that has also been posted. Please address any questions concerning the Policy to your managers and
supervisor.

The Drug and Alcohol Abuse Policy is necessary to protect the safety and well-being of our
employees and others. We are confident that this program will be supported by all.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

I acknowledge that I have been informed of HEPACO’s Drug and Alcohol Abuse Policy,
