Actually, I don't think they have a choice.  I believe that US law requires
mandatory drug testing of all companies that employ a certain number of people
at sea.  All the commercial fishing companies are required to do drug testing
and I was required to do it when I was working at sea as a fisheries observer.
So I doubt that it's something that that Outer Banks Dive Center thought up on
their own.

In any event, I don't get the thrust of your comment.  If you were running a
dive boat, would you want to place your customers in the hands of a drugged
out divemaster?  Maybe you do things differently in Australia.
