In accordance with Executive Order 12866 "Regulatory Planning and Review" and the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601), executive agencies are required to publish in the Federal Register semiannual regulatory agendas in April and October of each year.

The Corporation for National and Community Service has determined that the regulations under consideration will not impose compliance costs or reporting burdens on the public and that the regulations will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. Accordingly, no regulatory analysis is required under 5 U.S.C. 602.

Pursuant to OMB letter, dated January 26, 2001, at this time, there are no updates to the items listed in the April 2001 Unified Agenda due to the Corporation for National and Community Service not having an agency head appointed by President Bush.

42 USC 794; 42 USC 2000d to 2000d-7; 42 USC 6101 to 6107; EO 12250

CFR Citation: (To search for a specific CFR, visit the Code of Federal Regulations.)

45 CFR 1203; 45 CFR 1232

Legal Deadline:

None

Abstract:

The Corporation proposes to make amendments to its regulations implementing title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (title VI) and section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1972 (section 504). Together, these statutes prohibit discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, and disability in programs and 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. 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 CRAA's definition of "program or activity" and "program" into the Corporation's title VI and section 504 regulations. The Corporation's proposed regulation will be published as part of a joint notice of proposed rulemaking involving up to 24 Federal agencies.
