MEMORANDUM AND JUDGMENT
After submitting a urine sample which tested positive for the presence of opiates, petitioner, a prison inmate, was charged with using a controlled substance. Following a tier III hearing, he was found guilty of the charge. Contrary to petitioner's contention, the misbehavior report and positive test results, together with the testimony presented at the hearing, provide substantial evidence of petitioner's guilt (see, Matter of Aviles v. Selsky, 264 A.D.2d 883). We also reject petitioner's claim that the urinalysis sample was not handled properly. The evidence sufficiently demonstrated that the drug testing was performed in accordance with applicable procedures and that the chain of custody was adequately established (see, 7 NYCRR 1020.4 [e];Matter of Selby v. Coombe, 249 A.D.2d 597). Petitioner's remaining arguments have been examined and found to be without merit.
Cardona, P.J., Crew III, Graffeo, Mugglin and Rose, JJ., concur.
ADJUDGED that the determination is confirmed, without costs, and petition dismissed.
