Abstract: The U.S. Department of Education (the Department) published a Notice of Final Rulemaking for the Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance (Title IX NFR) to finalize amendments to the Departments implementing regulations for Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. The Departments final regulations would require a recipient to maintain various documents regarding its Title IX activities for a period of at least seven years. These requirements are specified in 34 CFR 106.8(f). Recipients impacted by the proposed regulations include local educational agencies, institutes of higher education and other entities that receive Federal grant funds from the Department. The information collected will allow recipients and the Department to assess on a longitudinal basis whether a recipient is complying with the Departments Title IX regulations when it is has information about sex discrimination, the prevalence of sex discrimination affecting access to a recipients education program or activity, and whether additional or different training is necessary for the recipient to fulfill its obligations under Title IX. The rule relates to the 1870-0506 ICR, ICR Reference No: 202207-1870-001. The RIN # is 1870-AA16 which published 4/29/2024 (Vol 89 page 33474). Docket ID ED–2021–OCR–0166
