45 CFR Chs. XII, XXV

Executive Order 12866 ``Regulatory Planning and Review''

AGENCY: Corporation for National and Community Service.

ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda.

_______________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY: This agenda announces the regulations that the Corporation 
will have under development, revision, or review during the next year. 
The purpose for publishing this agenda is to give notice of any 
regulatory activity by the Agency in order to provide the public an 
opportunity to participate in the rulemaking process.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The public is encouraged to contact 
the agency official listed for the particular agenda item. For other 
information concerning Corporation regulations or this semiannual 
agenda, contact Frank R. Trinity, General Counsel, Corporation for 
National and Community Service, 1201 New York Avenue NW., Washington, 
DC 20525, (202) 606-5000, ext. 290.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with Executive Order 12866 
``Regulatory Planning and Review'' and the Regulatory Flexibility Act 
(5 U.S.C. 601), executive agencies are required to publish in the 
Federal Register semiannual regulatory agendas in April and October of 
each year.

     The Corporation for National and Community Service has 
determined that the regulations under consideration will not impose 
compliance costs or reporting burdens on the public and that the 
regulations will not have a significant economic impact on a 
substantial number of small entities. Accordingly, no regulatory 
analysis is required under 5 U.S.C. 602.

Dated: September 20, 2002.

Chief Operating Officer.

3091. NONDISCRIMINATION ON THE BASIS OF RACE, COLOR, NATIONAL ORIGIN, 
HANDICAP, AND AGE IN PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES RECEIVING FEDERAL FINANCIAL 
ASSISTANCE

Priority: Substantive, Nonsignificant

Legal Authority: 42 USC 794; 42 USC 2000d to 2000d-7; 42 USC 6101 to 
6107; EO 12250

CFR Citation: 45 CFR 1203; 45 CFR 1232

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: The Corporation proposes to make amendments to its 
regulations implementing title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 
(title VI) and section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1972 (section 
504). Together, these statutes prohibit discrimination on the basis of 
race, color, national origin, and disability in programs and activities 
that receive Federal financial assistance. In 1988, the Civil Rights 
Restoration Act (CRRA) added definitions of ``program or activity'' and 
``program'' to title VI and added a definition of ``program or 
activity'' to section 504. The added definitions were designed to 
clarify the broad scope of coverage of recipients' programs or 
activities under these statutes. The promulgation of this proposed 
regulation explicitly incorporates the CRAA's definition of ``program 
or activity'' and ``program'' into the Corporation's title VI and 
section 504 regulations. The Corporation's final regulation, which has 
been prepared, will be published as part of a joint rulemaking.
