SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Office of 
Diversity and Equal Opportunity and the Office of Procurement, in 
accordance with title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, title IX of 
the Education Amendments of 1972, section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act 
of 1973, and the Age Discrimination Act of 1975, requires grant 
awardees to submit an assurance of non-discrimination (NASA Form 1206) 
as part of their initial grant application package.
    The requirement for assurance of nondiscrimination compliance 
associated with federally assisted programs is long standing, derives 
from civil rights implementing regulations, and extends to the grant 
recipient's sub-grantees, contractors, successors, transferees, and 
assignees. Grant selectees are required to submit compliance 
information triennially when their award period exceeds 36 consecutive 
months. This information collection will also be used to enable NASA to 
conduct post-award civil rights compliance reviews.

    Electronic.
