Announcement from the Washington State Patrol, Toxicology Laboratory Division regarding breath test estimates.
By the way, did you know that your BAC results are just "estimates" and not actual numbers? Here is the press release:
December 13, 2010 - The Washington State Patrol, Toxicology Laboratory Division now provides estimates of breath alcohol measurement uncertainty (confidence intervals) with every Quality Assurance Procedure (QAP) performed. This replaces the recent practice of the Division producing estimates of measurement uncertainty for individual breath alcohol results. Person's submitting individual requests for breath alcohol uncertainty (confidence intervals) to the Washington State Patrol will be directed to use the uncertainty tables present on this website.
To access the uncertainty tables, identify the instrument used for your test and then access the records for the calibration completed prior to the test. These are located in the "Q.A. Forms" drop down list accessed through the "DataMaster Search" section. Measurement uncertainty estimates have been included for all instrument QAP's performed since 2009.
The uncertainty sources and equations can be found in the "BTP Public Records Index" section on this site, under the link "Uncertainty". The production of breath alcohol testing-uncertainty estimates should not be construed as having being reviewed or endorsed by any accrediting organization.
If you have further questions or do not find the records you are seeking, please contact the Breath Test Program at Breathtest@wsp.wa.gov or call the Breath Test Program in your local area:
