3739. ¤ NONDISCRIMINATION ON THE BASIS OF RACE, COLOR, NATIONAL ORIGIN, HANDICAP, AND AGE IN PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES RECEIVING FEDERAL FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
Agency:
National Science Foundation (NSF)
Priority:
Substantive, Nonsignificant
Legal Authority:
20 USC 1681 to 1683; 20 USC 1685 to 1688
CFR Citation: (To search for a specific CFR, visit the Code of Federal Regulations.)
45 CFR 618
Legal Deadline:
None
Abstract:
The National Science Foundation proposes to make amendments to its regulations implementing Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VI), Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1972 (Section 504), and the Age Discrimination Act of 1975 (Age Discrimination Act). Together, these statutes prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, disability, and age in programs or activities that receive Federal financial assistance. In 1988, the Civil Rights Restoration Act (CRRA) added definitions of "program or activity" and "program" to Title VI and added a definition of "program or activity" to Section 504 and the Age Discrimination Act. The added definitions were designed to clarify the broad scope of coverage of recipients' programs or activities under these statutes. The promulgation of this proposed regulation explicitly incorporates the CRRA's definitions of "program or activity" and "program" into the Department's Title VI, Section 504, and Age Discrimination Act regulations. The Foundation's proposed regulation will be published as part of a joint notice of proposed rulemaking involving up to 24 Federal agencies.
