Title: Amendment to the Interpretive Guidelines Governing the Employee Protective Provisions of the Federal Transit Act | |
Abstract: Pursuant to Section 5333(b) of the Federal Transit law, the Department of Labor (Department) must certify, as a condition of certain grants of Federal financial assistance, fair and equitable labor protective provisions to protect the interests of employees affected by such Federal assistance. The Department administers this program through guidelines set forth at 29 CFR part 215. The Department's proposed changes conform the guidelines to recently enacted Federal legislation, in particular, sections 3013(h) and 3031 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation Equity Act – A Legacy for Users (Pub. L. No. 109-59, 119 Stat. 1144 (2005)) (SAFETEA-LU). In addition to changes mandated by statute, the Department also proposes revisions to the guidelines that will enhance the speed and efficiency of the Department’s processing of grant certifications. The proposed revisions to existing procedures for processing grant application under Federal transit law will ensure timely certification in a predictable manner, and will remain consistent with the transit law's statutory objectives. | |
