Increasing Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) Reporting - Phase II: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announces discretionary Grant opportunities to provide funding to support NHTSA's efforts to improve the collection of impaired driving data to enhance programs that reduce alcohol-impaired driving crashes and the resulting injuries and fatalities by focusing on increasing blood alcohol concentration (BAC) reporting.
