Compliance Reviews - Title VI Program

The objective of this project is to support federal oversight responsibility of the civil rights compliance program. FTA compliance reviews and assessments are conducted to determine if grantees/transit operators are in compliance with the law, in this case with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 programs. To be eligible for federal funding, the grant recipient must be in compliance with federal requirements. The objective of this project activity is to assist the federal staff in implementing its oversight responsibility. The compliance assessment includes onsite evaluation of five Title VI selected grantees/transit operators in the following cities: Baltimore, Maryland; Richmond, Virginia; and Salt Lake City, Utah. The contractor will conduct the compliance reviews and prepare a final report and follow-up action with the transit agency to ensure recommended actions are taken to correct deficiencies identified in the compliance review within an established timeframe. Acquisition of contractor support services improves the coordination and management of the civil rights compliance program.
