Which code is used for the AGENCY input to reflect the NC State Highway Patrol in the Intox EC/IR II?

• A. Troop and District (E9)
• B. Headquarters
• C. District Office
• D. Troop and Area (E5)

Answer: (A)

In the Intox EC/IR II, the AGENCY input identifies the unit and jurisdiction conducting the test. For the North Carolina State Highway Patrol, the correct setting is Troop and District, which maps to the code E9. This matches how the Highway Patrol is organized—into Troops, each containing several Districts—and the test record should reflect that field-level unit. Using the District Office or Headquarters would imply a different administrative scope, and the Troop and Area option (E5) corresponds to a different subdivision scheme, not the Highway Patrol's District structure. Therefore, selecting Troop and District with code E9 correctly identifies the agency and its jurisdiction for the test.
