ATTACHMENT E 2009-DJ-BX-0033 <br /> investigates recipients that are the subject of discrimination complaints from both individuals and groups. In addition, based <br /> on regulatory criteria, OCR selects a number of recipients each year for compliance reviews, audits that require recipients to <br /> submit data showing that they are providing services equitably to all segments of their service population and that their <br /> employment practices meet equal employment opportunity standards. <br /> Complying with the Safe Streets Act or Program Requirements <br /> In addition to these general prohibitions, an organization which is a recipient of financial assistance subject to the <br /> nondiscrimination <br /> provisions of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act (Safe Streets Act) of 1968, 42 U.S.C. § 3789d(c), or other Federal <br /> grant program requirements, must meet two additional requirements:(1) complying with Federal regulations pertaining to <br /> the development of an Equal Employment Opportunity Plan (ESOP), 28 C.F.R. § 42.301-.308, and (2) submitting to OCR <br /> Findings of Discrimination (see 28 C.F.R. 42.205(5) or 31.202(5)). <br /> 1) Meeting the EEOP Requirement <br /> In accordance with Federal regulations, Assurance No. 6 in the Standard Assurances, COPS Assurance No. 8.B, or certain <br /> Federal grant program requirements, your organization must comply with the following EEOP reporting requirements: <br /> If your organization has received an award for $500,000 or more and has 50 or more employees (counting both full- and part- <br /> time <br /> employees but excluding political appointees), then it has to prepare an EEOP and submit it to OCR for review within 60 days <br /> from the date of this letter. For assistance in developing an ESOP, please consult OCR's website at <br /> http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/ocr/eeop.htm. You may also request technical assistance from an EEOP specialist at OCR by dialing <br /> (202) 616-3208. If your organization received an award between $25,000 and $500,000 and has 50 or more employees, your <br /> organization still has to prepare an ESOP, but it does not have to submit the EEOP to OCR for review. Instead, your <br /> organization has to maintain the EEOP on file and make it available for review on request. In addition, your organization has to <br /> complete Section B of the Certification Form and return it to OCR. The Certification Form can be found at <br /> http: //www.oj p.usdoj.gov/ocr/eeop.htm. <br /> If your organization received an award for less than $25,000; or if your organization has less than 50 employees, regardless of <br /> the amount of the award; or if your organization is a medical institution, educational institution, nonprofit organization or <br /> Indian tribe, then your organization is exempt from the EEOP requirement. However, your organization must complete Section <br /> A of the Certification Form and return it to OCR. The Certification Form can be found at <br /> http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/ocr/eeop.htm. <br /> 2) Submitting Findings of Discrimination <br /> [n the event a Federal or State court or Federal or State administrative agency makes an adverse finding of discrimination <br /> against your <br /> organization after a due process hearing, on the ground of race, color, religion, national origin, or sex, your organization must <br /> submit a copy of the finding to OCR for review. <br /> Ensuring the Compliance of subrecipients <br /> If your organization makes subawards to other agencies, you are responsible for assuring that subrecipients also comply with <br /> all of the <br /> applicable Federal civil rights laws, including the requirements pertaining to developing and submitting an EEOP, reporting <br /> Findings of Discrimination, and providing language services to LEP persons. State agencies that make subawards must have in <br /> place standard grant assurances and review procedures to demonstrate that they are effectively monitoring the civil rights <br /> <br /> compliance of subrecipients. <br /> <br /> If we can assist you in any way in fulfilling your civil rights responsibilities as a recipient of Federal funding, please call OCR at <br /> <br /> (202) 307-0690 or visit our website at htt~/~www.ojp.usdoj. ov ocr/. <br /> 2 of 5 <br /> 20A-38 <br /> <br />
