The determination that petitioner ingested cocaine is supported by substantial evidence (see 300 Gramatan Ave. Assoc. v. State Div. of Human Rights, 45 NY2d 176 [1978]). Pursuant to department drug-testing procedures, in connection with petitioner’s application to the Highway Unit, three samples of hair from his arm were subjected to repeated testing by independent laboratories and yielded positive results for the presence of cocaine.
