Title: Age Discrimination Regulations—EPA-Assisted Programs—Age Discrimination Act of 1975 
Abstract: The Age Discrimination Act of 1975 prohibits discrimination based on age in programs or activities that receive Federal financial assistance, and requires Federal agencies to issue regulations implementing the Act. Recipients are aware of this prohibition and are already in compliance with this requirement. This amendment will add Age as a protected classification to EPA's nondiscrimination regulations (40 CFR part 7), which already prohibit discrimination based on race, color, national origin, sex or handicap in EPA-assisted programs or activities pursuant to title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and section 13 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act of 1972.
