The high volume of traffic on Interstate 5 led to the completion of a new north Medford interchange in 2006. The project, which cost about $36 million, improved traffic flow between I-5 and Crater Lake Highway. Further traffic problems identified in south Medford prompted the construction of another new interchange, costing $72 million. The project began in 2006 and was completed in 2010.

Selecting an Appropriate Drug Testing Panel

Drug tests are often categorized as panels, with 5, 10, or 12-panel tests being the most common (indicating the number of drugs screened). Customized panels are also available as needed.

An Overview of Drug Testing

A drug test involves analyzing biological samples—such as urine, hair, blood, or saliva—to determine the presence or absence of specified substances. Besides detecting performance-enhancing drugs in sports, tests are heavily used by employers, probation personnel, and law enforcement to screen for illegal substances. BAC levels, typically assessed through breath tests, are standard for alcohol detection. While urinalysis remains prevalent in workplaces and sports, other methodologies are available with varying detection periods and accuracy.

The Impact of Passive Marijuana Smoke on Test Results

Exposure to marijuana smoke passively is unlikely to affect drug test results due to cut-off levels set above passive exposure detection.

Unexpected results could signal a false negative or sample tampering. For instance:

  • Low creatinine levels can suggest sample tampering, such as intentional dilution.
  • Creatinine levels paired with specific gravity help indicate dilution. Testing facilities often dye toilet water blue to avoid sample tampering.
  • Enzyme addition attempts to alter urine stability can inadvertently change the pH level, which is also assessed in tests.

Drug Detection Durations

Multiple factors influence the detection period of drugs in the body, such as:

  • The drug's quantity
  • Frequency of use
  • Drug type
  • Individual metabolism and health
  • Fluid intake post-consumption
  • Physical activity following drug intake
  • Genetic differences affecting drug response

Local Area Info: Medford, Oregon

Medford is a city in, and the county seat of, Jackson County, Oregon, in the United States. As of July 1, 2017, the city had a total population of 81,780 and a metropolitan area population of 217,479, making the Medford MSA the fourth largest metro area in Oregon. The city was named in 1883 by David Loring, civil engineer and right-of-way agent for the Oregon and California Railroad, after Medford, Massachusetts, which was near Loring’s home town of Concord, Massachusetts. Medford is near the middle ford of Bear Creek.

In 1883, a group of railroad surveyors headed by S. L. Dolson and David Loring arrived in Rock Point, near present-day Gold Hill. They were charged with finding the best route through the Rogue Valley for the Oregon and California Railroad. Citizens of neighboring Jacksonville hoped that it would pass between their town and Hanley Butte, near the present day Claire Hanley Arboretum. Such a move would have all but guaranteed prosperous growth for Jacksonville, but Dolson decided instead to stake the railroad closer to Bear Creek. The response from Jacksonville was mixed, but the decision was final. By November 1883, a depot site had been chosen and a surveying team led by Charles J. Howard was hard at work platting the new town. They completed their work in early December 1883, laying out 82 blocks for development.

James Sullivan Howard, a merchant and surveyor, claimed to have built the town's first building in January 1884, though blacksmith Emil Piel was advertising for business at the "central depot" in the middle of December 1883. Others point out the farms of town founders Iradell Judson Phipps and Charles Wesley Broback, which were present before the town was platted. Regardless, on February 6, 1884 (less than a month after it was built), J. S. Howard's store became Medford's first post office, with Howard serving as postmaster. The establishment of the post office led to the incorporation of Medford as a town by the Oregon Legislative Assembly on February 24, 1885, and again as a city in 1905. Howard held the position of postmaster for Medford's first ten years, and again held the post upon his death on November 13, 1919.
