Roy Elzy appeals the judgment and sentence imposed following his 2003 convictions for possession and delivery of cocaine. He contends RCW 43.43.754 and the portion of his sentence requiring him to provide a biological sample for DNA identification violate his Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable searches. These arguments were rejected in, and are controlled by, our decision in State v. Surge, 122 Wn. App. 448, 94 P.3d 345 (2004) (holding that State v. Olivas, 122 Wn.2d 73, 856 P.2d 1076 (1993), is controlling on the Fourth Amendment issue). The Ninth Circuit has also recently rejected a Fourth Amendment challenge to a requirement to provide a biological sample for DNA identification. United States v. Kincade, 379 F.3d 813 (9th Cir. 2004).

Affirmed.

AGID, J., APPELWICK, J., and COLEMAN, J., concur.
