3751. PROCEDURES--THE AGE DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT ACT

Priority: Substantive, Nonsignificant

Legal Authority: 29 USC 628, sec 115, Civil Rights Act of 1991

CFR Citation: 29 CFR 1626

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: Section 115 of the Civil Rights Act of 1991 deleted 
references to the Portal to Portal Act from the private suit provisions 
of the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) and replaced them 
with a requirement that suit be filed no later than 90 days after 
termination of proceedings or dismissal of a charge by EEOC. 
Accordingly, section 1626.7(a) is being deleted and section 1626.15(b) 
is being revised because they were both based upon the Portal to Portal 
Act. New sections are being added concerning termination of EEOC 
proceedings and the issuance of notices of the new 90-day limitation 
period.

Timetable:

Abstract: We propose to conform the treatment of decisions by

agencies can either fully implement or appeal.
