DOJ/CRT RIN: 1190-AA52 Publication ID: Spring 2009 
Title: Amendments to Coordination of Enforcement of Nondiscrimination in Federally Assisted Programs and Implementation of Executive Order 12250 
Abstract: 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. In a joint rulemaking described at RIN 1190-AA49, and published in the Federal Register on August 26, 2003, the Department of Justice and other Federal agencies conformed their regulations to the CRRA. In the rulemaking described under this RIN (1190-AA52) the Department of Justice proposes to make conforming amendments to its coordination regulations concerning agency enforcement of title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 28 CFR 42.401 to 42.415, and agency enforcement of section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 28 CFR 41.1 to 41.58. The proposed amendments explicitly incorporate the CRRA's definitions of "program or activity" and "program" into the Department's title VI and section 504 coordination regulations.
