LMRFD Drug Policy and Volunteers.. Need Your Opinion

I've brought the problem with the LMRFD application and the districts drug policy before. Now I need your opinions..

This is what the LMRFD Drug Policy says......

The policy says "The District prohibits the use, sale, transfer, being under the influence and/or reporting to work after using illicit drugs"

As I read the part that says "Under District policy, alcohol is included within the meaning and prohibition of drugs".

I understand this to say it includes alcohol the same as illicit drugs and employees can't use, sell, transfer, or be under the influence of drugs or alcohol off duty or on duty.

MY QUESTION
If alcohol is included within the meaning and prohibition of drugs, can employees drink alcohol off duty? 

I you read this the way I do then employees or volunteers can't even have a beer on the 4th of July. 

So why would anyone volunteer, and why are current employees allowed to disregard the drug policy?

How hard is it to change the wording to be more understandable. 

ALSO
Please it's obvious you just copied the NACFD application but at least take out the wording that says you're applying for Northern Arizona Consolidated Fire District and not Lake Mohave Ranchos Fire District
