The lab will deal with driving while intoxicated (DWI) cases, examining evidences against the accused.

It will shoulder the responsibility of analysing samples seized in drug cases within Orange, Ulster, Dutchess, Rockland and Putnam counties.

It will also scrutinise samples from the State Police cases that originate from Westchester County and New York City.
