    The Crime Laboratory is just completing the validation process on a GC-FID-MS & GC-FID. Our new equipment and SOPs should be reviewed by ANAB in an offsite assessment prior to the end of the year. Once we have received ANAB approval we will be able to conduct BAC testing again. We should have City Council approval for funding at the end of this month or the beginning of the next month that will allow us to purchase a LCMS instrument. This new instrument will permit us to conduct THC quantification testing.
