	United States Anti-Doping Agency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA), which began operations on 1 October 2000, is a non-governmental agency responsible for implementation of the World Anti-Doping Code in the United States.
		The World Anti-Doping Code, which lists drugs and methods that are prohibited in sports, was developed by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) which was established by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in 1999.

	U.S. Doping Agency
		Likewise, USADA has no credible evidence to believe that the use of the patches by the swimmers associated with the Stanford women's swimming program was a violation of any anti-doping rules.
		USADA was also informed that some of these "patches" had been tested by a private laboratory and allegedly showed the presence of a prohibited substance.
		Importantly, USADA warns all athletes, including your swimmers, that they are strictly responsible for everything that goes into their body by whatever means.

	US Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, & Transportation
		USADA has been recognized by Congress as the independent, national anti-doping agency for Olympic and Paralympic sport in the United States.
		The true victims of doping are todayâs clean athletes who want to compete in clean sport, the young athletes of tomorrow who are being deceived into believing that doping is an acceptable path to winning and the public who is being defrauded by athletic performances that are dependent on the use of drugs.
		USADAâs mission is to protect and preserve the health of athletes, the integrity of competition, and the well-being of sport through the elimination of doping.

	Bill Would Require Drug Testing in Pro Sports - New York Times
		In 2000, anti-doping agency was formed to get the United States Olympic Committee out of the business of testing its athletes, the situation the leagues find themselves in now.
		Five years ago, United States Olympic officials began tackling the problems that the National Football League, Major League Baseball, the National Basketball Association and National Hockey League are being forced to face now in front of several Congressional committees.
		Agency officials say it would need much more money to take on extra responsibilities and that it needs more money now just to bring its research up to date.

	Sport Eight-year ban for Collins
		The United States Anti-Doping Agency last night banned the sprinter Michelle Collins for eight years, even though she has never tested positive for drugs, in a case which could have serious repercussions for Marion Jones.
		A Court of Arbitration for Sport hearing decided "Usada has proved, beyond a reasonable doubt, that Collins took EPO, the testosterone/epitestosterone cream and THG, and that Collins used these substances to enhance her performance and elude the drug-testing that was available at the time".
		In addition, the Usada has been investigating whether it has enough evidence to bring a charge against Jones, the triple Olympic champion, after Victor Conte, the founder and owner of Balco, claimed he had supplied her with a range of banned performanceenhancing drugs.

	Anti-Doping Agency Enters A Gray Area
		SAN FRANCISCO - When the United States Anti-Doping Agency was created in October 2000 to oversee drug testing in Olympic sports, it was largely hailed as an independent body that would aggressively nab cheaters and dampen international allegations of foot-dragging or cover-ups on the part of American officials.
		But in the coming weeks, the anti-doping agency will essentially face a referendum on the legitimacy of its own actions, just as some athletes will potentially face judgment before the agency and the arbitrators on the legitimacy of their own performances.
		Four years later, the anti-doping agency is treading new ground in the Balco steroids case -- trying to bar athletes if sufficient evidence indicates that they have used banned substances, even if they have not failed a conventional drug test.
