If you have a violation in the FMCSA Clearinghouse, you need to find a SAP Evaluation near me to help you with this process to get the violation removed.

After the SAP evaluation, DOT rules require the employee to complete the course of treatment or education recommended by the SAP.  After the completion of the SAP’s recommendations, an individual may be considered for return to safety-sensitive duty. (However, employers are not obligated to keep them as employees and may choose to terminate their employment even if they are compliant with the SAP Evaluation). Employees who are in violation are required to be kept from any safety-sensitive duty (with any DOT-regulated employer) until the SAP’s recommendations have been completed and a return-to-duty assessment has been conducted.
